Expansion joint sealing for Crockerhill sites
Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Maintenance after handover
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Keep scrapers and ploughs from dragging across joint sealant
- Treat a small split as a warning, not a cosmetic issue
- Include every elevation and deck joint in periodic inspections
- Keep product details with the building records for the next reseal
Movement joints belong on the planned maintenance inspection list. A periodic look picks up tears and lifting before water gets in and long before edges start to break. Should you spot a problem, you can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and send a picture.
Rain gets into walls through torn brick and block movement joints. It can surface inside as damp a long way from the joint, well after the seal first opened. Catching it early keeps the water outside.
Expansion joint sealing in Crockerhill, done properly
If you need expansion joint sealing in Crockerhill, start with photos and joint lengths. Send them through our quote form, and we will arrange a site visit if needed. To discuss the joints first, ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form. We work on cladding panel joints, brickwork movement joints and podiums and floor movement joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are debris jammed in movement joints and expansion joints split through the centre of the bead. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Crockerhill tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
In and around smaller places like Crockerhill, the concrete floors we see are often in converted farm buildings, small workshops and storage units. Joints in those slabs take vehicles, trolleys and foot traffic, and need a filler or sealant to match.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Hampshire. If an installation problem shows up, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll arrange a return visit.

Doing it in-house
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.
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.
How the job changes by surface
Joints between different materials
Hybrid or MS polymer sealants bond to many substrates. The choice depends on the substrates and how much the joint moves, and confirm it in the quote.
Podium joints
Podium joints often sit within a waterproofing system. We reseal the joint where sealant is the specified fix.

What sets the cost
These are the things that shape the price:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Any access equipment needed
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Phasing around occupants
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Details that help us quote
We can often quote from photographs and a few details. Please tell us:
- The site address and postcode
- The product your specification calls for
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule

Floors, slabs and movement joints in Crockerhill
Crockerhill is within about 3 miles of the coast. Coastal yards and decks give their joints salt and wet weather to deal with, not just wheels, so it pays to keep them sealed. The 3 miles around Crockerhill take in at least three named trading estates, business parks or retail parks. Their warehouses, yards and car parks are exactly where joints take the most punishment.
At a retail site such as Broadcut Retail Park, 1.7 miles south of Crockerhill, trolleys, cages and cars run over floor and slab joints all day. In a school such as The Henry Cort Community College, movement joints in brick, block and hall floors tend to be forgotten until they leak.

Do you need expansion joint sealing in Crockerhill?
Sun, rain and frost age external movement joints. In time the bead chalks, stiffens and cracks and opens at the next temperature swing.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Spalled or broken joint edges in floors and decks
- Expansion joints filled with dirt and stones
- Joints where the bead has lost adhesion
- Rain penetration at brick or block movement joints
A healthcare site such as Knowle Hospital (to the west of Crockerhill) depends on car parks, ramps and service yards whose joints take traffic all day.
What your quote should include

Questions we’re asked in Crockerhill
Is Knowle Village Business Park, near Crockerhill, within your area?
Yes, sites like Knowle Village Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Crockerhill. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Knowle Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Do you work in Crockerhill?
Yes. Sites across Crockerhill are covered.
Does the weather affect the work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Can the building stay open while you work?
In most cases, yes. Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
What sealant do you use in movement joints?
We choose a sealant with a movement capability that suits the joint as set out in BS EN ISO 11600. Hybrid or MS polymer products suit some mixed-material joints.
On site: what to expect
We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. Once we’re cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. For a building around Crockerhill, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.
- We start with photographs, approximate lengths and any drawings, visiting where needed.
- We compare each joint’s width with the movement and the sealant’s capability and tell you if the design looks wrong for the movement.
- Every joint is cleared of the failed seal and any grit packed into it.
- Edges are checked, and we tell you if any need repairing before sealing.
- A sealant suited to the movement and traffic is laid to depth and tooled.
- Areas reopen once cured, and the work carries 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
