Expansion joint sealing for Coombe Hill sites
Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Leave it or put it right?
Some quotes just add sealant over the old bead. A bead over the old seal can’t bond or flex, so it fails quickly. We cut out the old seal and prepare the faces every time. In Coombe Hill, each extra visit means more notices, permits and disruption, so cutting the old sealant out fully and doing it right once is the better route.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

How we handle expansion joint sealing in Coombe Hill
Joints in car park decks and ramps are among the hardest-working in any building. Wheel loads, grit and de-icing salts attack the seal and the concrete either side; water dripping through to the deck below is often the first sign. We reseal deck and ramp joints with a trafficable sealant chosen for the movement, phasing bays so the car park can stay in use. If you’re dealing with joints packed with grit and debris and water getting into the wall through a failed joint, we can put it right, on cladding panel joints, blockwork control joints and brickwork movement joints alike. Whoever orders the work in Coombe Hill, the brief is typically the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Floor and movement joints in London take heavy use: car park decks, loading bays, shopping centre malls and podiums over occupied space. When a joint fails, grit and water get in and the arrises start to break up, so it pays to act early.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

When it isn’t the sealant
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Waterproofing layers buried beneath the sealant
- Damaged metal nosings or cover plates over a joint
- Cracking or settlement that calls for an engineer’s assessment
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Expansion joint sealing in Coombe Hill: the local picture
Few London car parks or loading bays can be taken out of use for more than a short spell, so joints are sealed in sections with each area handed back once cured. The 3 miles around Coombe Hill take in at least three named trading estates, business parks or retail parks. Floors, loading bays and yards on sites like these are where floor and movement joints work hardest.
Sites like New Victoria Hospital (1.2 miles south-east of Coombe Hill) carry ambulances, deliveries and visitors’ cars over their road and deck joints. University campuses such as Kingston University (Kingston Hill Campus) (less than half a mile south of Coombe Hill) have car parks, paved walkways and building elevations with movement joints. For a centre such as Bentall Centre (2.2 miles south-west of Coombe Hill), the service yard and car park joints normally need attention first.

What affects the price in Coombe Hill
What shapes the price:
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Which sealant the job calls for
- How much there is to seal
- Whether the work must be split into stages
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
Details that help us quote
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- When you need the work done
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over with what you know.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. In Coombe Hill, most buildings stay in use during the work, so we agree zones and timings with the building or facilities manager. Phased work keeps the rest of the building in use.
- We assess the joints on site or from photos, noting widths and how each has failed.
- You receive a fixed quote stating the product and the movement it is rated for.
- Phasing is agreed so decks, floors or entrances can stay in use where needed.
- The failed seal is cut out and both joint faces cleaned back to sound material.
- Depth is controlled with backing, the faces are primed where the maker calls for it, then the bead is laid and tooled.
- Finished joints are inspected, the cure time confirmed and the 12-month guarantee applies.
Before we start on site
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
Ask for a quote

Advice
Coombe Hill: questions and answers
Is St. George's Industrial Estate, near Coombe Hill, within your area?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Coombe Hill, St. George's Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Can you cope with the access rules in a London building?
Yes. Inductions, permits and timed loading are routine for us in London. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry. We allow for the ULEZ, which covers every borough
Do you need to see the site first?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a visit.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
How do we ask for a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Include photographs or drawings if you have them.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Do you reseal car park expansion joints?
Yes. Deck and ramp joints are resealed with a trafficable sealant chosen for the movement, and phased work can be planned so parts of the car park stay in use.
Maintenance after handover
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Keep product details with the building records for the next reseal
- Keep traffic off new joints until the cure time is up
- Put movement joints on the planned maintenance inspection round
- Look over external and deck joints after a hard winter
Snow ploughs and scrapers catch on joint lines. Raising blades over joints where possible protects the seal.
Floor joints with failed fillers break up quickly under wheels. Broken arrises jolt trucks, loads and drivers. Keeping the filler or sealant sound protects the floor.
General trades versus a specialist
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
