Questions we are asked in Ellisfield
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Ellisfield, such as Viables Business Park?
Yes, sites like Viables Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Ellisfield. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Can the building stay open while you work?
Typically, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use, with each area protected and signed.
What if the joint edges are damaged?
Sealant needs sound faces to bond to, so we will tell you if the edges need repairing before sealing. Where it’s visible beforehand, we will say so when we quote.
How much does the work cost?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
Expansion joint sealing in Ellisfield, done properly
Every structure moves a little, all the time: temperature, moisture, shrinkage and loading all make materials grow and shrink. Movement joints are where that movement is absorbed, and the sealant in them keeps water and debris out. Mastic Doctor reseals movement joints in brickwork, blockwork, concrete, cladding and floors on sites in Ellisfield. If you are dealing with damp inside where a wall movement joint has failed and expansion joints split through the centre of the bead, we can put it right, on cladding panel joints, brickwork movement joints and blockwork control joints alike. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Ellisfield, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
For a site near Ellisfield, measurements and photographs up front mean one trip where possible, with the right materials on hand. Note joint widths and the traffic that uses them, and we’ll take it from there.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Central London is about 47 miles from Ellisfield. Distribution warehouses and industrial estates are common around the motorway corridors that serve the capital.

What the job involves on each surface
Car park decks and ramps
Water coming through deck joints is the usual first sign. The old seal comes out, the edges are prepared and the joint resealed.
Podium joints
Podium joints often sit within a waterproofing system. We reseal the joint where sealant is the specified fix.
Honest limits
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Crumbling edges that would give a new bead nothing sound to grip
- Leaks coming from the membrane rather than the joint seal
- Mechanical expansion joint covers, cover plates or proprietary joint systems (a specialist supplier’s job)
If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Car park decks and ramps
- Blockwork control joints
- Brickwork movement joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
- Precast concrete panel joints
- Cladding panel joints

After the work
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Treat a small split as a warning, not a cosmetic issue
- Keep product details with the building records for the next reseal
- Put movement joints on the planned maintenance inspection round
- Look over external and deck joints after a hard winter
Floor joints on main traffic routes need watching more closely than the rest. Avoid standing heavy loads or racking legs on the joints.
Unsupported floor joint edges spall under forklift and pallet-truck wheels. Damaged edges make the floor rough and wear wheels faster and the broken length grows with every pass. Sealing early protects the edges.
Why deal with it now?
Combining joint work with other maintenance reduces set-up costs. But joints already letting water in shouldn’t wait for a programme, as damage continues meanwhile. We can split the scope into urgent and planned. Around Ellisfield, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
A quote for movement joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you are working to. Call for a quote.

- Colour options checked against the specified product
- Clear, fixed quotes
- Public liability insurance in place

When to bring in 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.
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
How a job runs
Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before the next one starts. Jobs in and around smaller places like Ellisfield are usually planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- 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.
- Areas reopen once cured, and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
