Questions we’re asked in Claygate
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as West Park Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Claygate off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
What if the joint edges are damaged?
The edges have to be sound. Where they’ve broken up, we’ll tell you they need repairing first, so the new seal has something to grip.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we are a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
How much does the work cost?
There isn’t a price list, because every site is different. Send photos or drawings and we’ll price it at a fixed figure.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it.
About our expansion joint sealing in Claygate
Mastic Doctor has sealed movement joints since 2005, for main contractors, FMs, managing agents and building owners. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, CSCS-carded applicators and five million pounds of public liability insurance. Workmanship is backed by our 12-month guarantee. If you have weathered movement joint sealant that no longer flexes and car park joints leaking onto vehicles below, we can put it right. For commercial sealant work in Claygate, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Around places the size of Claygate, joints that need sealing tend to be in rural business units, farm buildings put to commercial use, schools and community buildings. Their slabs and walls still need movement joints that work.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Aftercare for building managers
For the best life from the joints:
- Treat a small split as a warning, not a cosmetic issue
- Record the sealant used and the date in the O&M file
- Put movement joints on the planned maintenance inspection round
- Leave barriers in place until fresh joint sealant has cured
Keep wheels, feet and water off new joints until the sealant has cured. The time varies with product, conditions and joint depth and we’ll tell you when each bay or area can reopen. Barriers left in place until then protect the finish.
A failed deck joint lets water straight through to the level below. Salty water dripping through stains soffits and lands on parked vehicles, which is bad news for the concrete and the people parking below. Sealing the joint promptly stops it at source.
Commercial clients in Claygate
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself usually takes a day or so for a modest run of joints, and longer where decks, ramps or floors are done in phases, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Work in places the size of Claygate is planned as a single visit where we can. Photos with rough sizes let us arrive with everything needed.
- We start with photos, approximate lengths and any drawings, visiting where needed.
- Joint widths and expected movement are checked against what the sealant can take.
- Every joint is cleared of the failed seal and any grit packed into it.
- Any broken arrises or friable edges are flagged before work goes further.
- The right sealant goes in at the right depth, bonded to the two sides only.
- Each area is handed back after its cure time, under our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
Advice
When to call us in Claygate
Weathering wears down sealant on exposed elevations and decks. In time the bead chalks, stiffens and cracks and opens at the next temperature swing.
Things that usually lead to an enquiry:
- Weathered movement joint sealant that no longer flexes
- Sealant peeling off one face of the joint
- Expansion joints split through the centre of the bead
- Expansion joints filled with dirt and stones
Another example is Silverglade Business Park, which lies south-east of Claygate, where floors and yards would be done in stages around the occupiers.
What your quote should include
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
What the job involves on each surface
Joints between different materials
Hybrid or MS polymer sealants bond to many substrates. We pick the product for the materials and the movement.
Brickwork and blockwork joints
Brick and block edges need careful preparation. Faces are prepared and primed wherever the sealant maker calls for it before the bead goes in.
Warehouse floors and decks around Claygate
Claygate is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, and where de-icing salt is spread in winter, open joints let it in. Claygate lies roughly 14 miles out from central London. The South East has large numbers of industrial estates and warehouses along the motorway corridors.
Hospital campuses such as West Park Hospital, 2.1 miles south-east of Claygate, grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old. Campuses like Kingston University Penrhyn Road Campus (3.4 miles north-east of Claygate) mix old and new buildings, with movement joints wherever they meet.
