Expansion joint sealing across Edgehill

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

Why act early in Edgehill

On a car park, resealing joints in phases keeps the deck open. Phased work by bay or zone lets the rest stay in use. We agree phasing with you before work starts. Converted and older buildings near places like Edgehill tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.

The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Why choose Mastic Doctor in Edgehill

  • Constructionline member for supplier checks
  • Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
  • CSCS-carded applicators
  • One number for every site we cover

About our expansion joint sealing in Edgehill

For movement joints in Edgehill, photos and approximate lengths are the best start. We’ll come and look where photos don’t show enough. To discuss the joints first, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us. If you are dealing with expansion joints filled with dirt and stones and expansion joints split through the centre of the bead, we can help, whatever the surface. Whoever orders the work in Edgehill, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.

In and around smaller places like Edgehill, 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.

Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Do you need expansion joint sealing in Edgehill?

With no backing rod or bond-breaker in place, sealant grips the base of the joint too. Bonded on three faces, it can’t stretch evenly when the joint opens.

Common reasons buildings call us in:

  • Previous reseals laid over old sealant
  • Damp inside where a wall movement joint has failed
  • Expansion joints split through the centre of the bead
  • Sealant pulling off the joint face

Office parks like Alkerton Oaks Business Park, 2 miles to the south of Edgehill, have decks, ramps and clad elevations whose joints take movement every day.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the existing material will be dealt with
  • Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
  • Their approach to joint depth and backing

How to choose a sealant contractor

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.

For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

Joints that move: notes for Edgehill

Rainfall across the South East, Edgehill included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External joints still wait for dry conditions, and gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints.

For floors and slabs around Edgehill, the product is chosen for the traffic and the movement at each joint.

On site: what to expect

Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work normally takes anything from part of a day to a couple of weeks, depending on joint lengths, widths and access, and we clear our waste as we work. If others near Edgehill need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. The first job is to check each joint: how wide it is, how it moves and why the old seal let go.
  2. Next, we fix a price and confirm the sealant we propose for the movement.
  3. The failed seal is removed and both faces are cleaned until sound and dry, and we tell you if any edges need repairing first.
  4. We control the depth with backing rod or, in shallow joints, bond-breaker tape.
  5. After any primer the maker requires, the bead is applied and tooled so it grips two sides only.
  6. Finished joints are checked and backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Cladding panel joints

We confirm what access is in place before pricing. Close-up photos help us judge the joints.

Internal floor movement joints

Floor joints include saw-cut joints and construction joints. Trafficked floor joints often get a semi-rigid filler.

After the work

For the best life from the joints:

  • Sweep decks, ramps and floors so grit doesn’t collect in the joints
  • Record the sealant used and the date in the O&M file
  • Look over external and deck joints after a hard winter
  • Act on the first tear or lifting edge rather than waiting

On car parks, winter clearance can damage deck joint sealant. Lifting the blade at each joint avoids tearing the bead, and it’s worth checking joints once the cold weather has passed.

Rain gets into walls through torn brick and block movement joints. It can surface inside as damp a long way from the joint by which time the joint has been open for a while. Resealing promptly prevents internal damage.

Your questions answered

Will you take on work at estates like Alkerton Oaks Business Park, close to Edgehill?

Yes, sites like Alkerton Oaks Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Edgehill. To start, just phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

Is Edgehill off your patch?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

When is resealing likely to be due?

There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.

Can you seal joints in cold or wet weather?

Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range. Cold, damp or frosty mornings can stop work outside so external dates keep some flexibility.

How soon can the area be used again?

That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, and we confirm it before leaving site.

Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?

Yes. If you need card details for site access, let us know and we will send them with the quote.

Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?

Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
