FAQs: Chartwell Green
Is Chartwell Green too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Is a hospital such as Moorgreen Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
What will the job cost?
It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote.
What exactly is a movement joint?
Put simply, it’s a planned break in a wall, slab or deck so the materials can move. Many people call it an expansion joint.
Can you work on car park ramps and decks?
Yes. Let us know the opening hours and which levels or bays have to stay available.
Keeping the joints sound
After handover, these steps help:
- Inspect exposed joints once the cold weather has passed
- Plan racking layouts so feet don’t land on a joint
- Put movement joints on the planned maintenance inspection round
- Leave barriers in place until fresh joint sealant has cured
Add every elevation, deck and floor joint to your inspection round. Early splits and edges starting to lift show up on a routine check, when they’re still cheap to deal with. If anything looks wrong, ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with photographs.
External wall joints that fail let rain into the masonry and cavity. It can surface inside as damp a long way from the joint. Resealing promptly prevents internal damage.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Our process
Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before we move to the next. For a job in Chartwell Green, the main thing is a clear picture of the work, so send photographs of each area. A fixed quote follows.
- First, the joints are inspected for width, movement and the type of failure.
- A fixed quote follows, naming the sealant and its movement class.
- Old sealant and filler are cut out and the joint faces cleaned back to sound material.
- We control the depth with backing rod or, in shallow joints, bond-breaker tape.
- After any primer the maker requires, the bead is applied and tooled so it grips two sides only.
- Each joint is inspected and handed over with our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need

Where floor joints take the most wear near Chartwell Green
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, and gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints. Less than 3 miles from Chartwell Green there are at least three named estates and business parks. Their warehouses, yards and car parks are exactly where joints take the most punishment.
If you manage units on an estate such as Seddul Bahr Industrial Estate, 1.4 miles to the north-east of Chartwell Green, the floor joints under forklifts and pallet trucks and the slab joints in the yard are the ones to watch. For an estate such as Moorgreen Hospital, which lies east of Chartwell Green, the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time. Across sites such as Itchen Business Park, which lies west of Chartwell Green, floor and movement joints can be sealed in phases so units keep working.
