About our expansion joint sealing in Chertsey
Mastic Doctor has sealed movement joints since 2005 for contractors, facilities managers and owners. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, we’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and we carry five million pounds of public liability insurance. Each job is backed by a 12-month guarantee on the workmanship. Most enquiries involve sealant peeling off one face of the joint and chipped joint edges on forklift routes, across car park decks and ramps, precast concrete panel joints and cladding panel joints. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Chertsey from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
In a smaller place such as Chertsey, floor and movement joints are often in agricultural and rural business units, schools and the odd small industrial yard. Their slabs and walls still need movement joints that work.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Quoting for work in Chertsey
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- How much there is to seal
- Access and working height
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Removal of failed or old sealant
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
What we need to price the job
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- Any specification or named product
- Access details, including height
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- The type of building and who uses it
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
Why act early in Chertsey
A like-for-like reseal of a joint that keeps splitting rarely lasts. If the joint is too narrow or the product wrong for the movement, it needs a different approach, and we will say so before quoting. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.

Common questions from Chertsey clients
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like St Peter's Hospital A&E?
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 cover business parks and estates near Chertsey, such as Hanworth Lane Business Park?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Chertsey, Hanworth Lane Business Park among them, are all within reach. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
Often, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
When can the area be used after sealing?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
What causes movement joint sealant to fail?
The way it has failed typically tells us why: a split through the middle points to over-stretching, while peeling from one face points to preparation or primer. Broken edges are a third possibility.
Do you work in Chertsey?
Yes. Sites across Chertsey are covered, with one number for every area we cover.
Are expansion joints and movement joints the same thing?
It’s a deliberate gap that lets the structure move without cracking. Many people call it an expansion joint.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Chertsey
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm them with the quote.
Whether you are a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Our process
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. The work itself normally takes a short visit for a handful of joints, or several days or more for a car park deck or long runs of facade joints, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Several jobs near Chertsey can be grouped on one trip. Tell us your site hours and we will plan around them.
- The first job is to check each joint: how wide it is, how it moves and why the old seal let go.
- You get a fixed quote with the product and its movement capability stated.
- The failed seal is removed and both faces are cleaned until sound and dry.
- 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.
Getting the site ready
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

What sealant work can’t fix
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:
- A joint that has to be widened or re-detailed before it can work
- Movement on a scale no sealant is meant to absorb
- Broken or spalled joint edges, which need repairing before any sealant goes in
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Precast concrete panel joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
- Brickwork movement joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Car park decks and ramps
- Blockwork control joints
General trades versus a specialist
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
