Expansion joint sealing for commercial buildings in East Clandon
Brickwork and blockwork walls have vertical movement joints at intervals, and they’re easy to miss until the sealant fails. Once the seal fails, rain reaches the cavity and the joint can no longer close. The old seal comes out, backing goes in and a sealant with the right movement class is applied with primer where the maker calls for it. We work on cladding panel joints, car park decks and ramps and precast concrete panel joints, and what we are called in for most is hardened, cracked sealant on exposed facades and arrises breaking up along floor joints. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in East Clandon from the first photos to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
Around smaller places such as East Clandon, floor joints are often in barns and farm buildings turned into workshops, stores and offices. Joints in those slabs take vehicles, trolleys and foot traffic, and need a filler or sealant to match.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will come back to it.

When it isn’t the sealant
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- A joint that has to be widened or re-detailed before it can work
- Structural movement beyond what the joints were designed for (that needs a structural engineer)
- Waterproofing layers buried beneath the sealant

From enquiry to sign-off
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. If others near East Clandon need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- 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.
- Old sealant and filler are cut out and the joint faces cleaned back to sound material, flagging any broken edges that need repair before sealing.
- 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
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
Related advice
Common problems we fix in East Clandon
When a bead pulls away from one face, it has lost adhesion. Poor preparation, a skipped primer, or sealant bonded to the back of the joint are typical reasons and it often shows on rushed work.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Previous reseals laid over old sealant
- Joints where the bead has lost adhesion
- Hardened, cracked sealant on exposed facades
- Arrises breaking up along floor joints
Office parks like Merrow Business Park (to the west of East Clandon) have decks, ramps and clad elevations whose joints take movement every day.
What your quote should include
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- Proof of insurance
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
What sets the cost
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- The product specified
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
Before you send an enquiry
A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:
- The site address and postcode
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Specification clauses that apply
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. To take the first step, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
What the job involves on each surface
Joints between different materials
Junctions between brick and render, or concrete and cladding, move independently. The product must bond to both substrates and cope with the movement priming where the maker calls for it.
Cladding panel joints
Cladding panels move more than masonry as they heat and cool. The joints need a low-modulus sealant with enough movement capability, and we will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Traffic, movement and joints around East Clandon

Maintenance after handover
After handover, these steps help:
- Check joints after long freezing spells
- Note which joints were done, when, and with what
- Plan racking layouts so feet don’t land on a joint
- Include every elevation and deck joint in periodic inspections
Grit is the slow enemy of a joint seal. Grit trodden or driven into the joint works at the surface until it tears. Regular sweeping keeps joint lines clear.
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.

Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, tell us and we will confirm them with the quote.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
