Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
Maintenance after handover
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:
- Record the sealant used and the date in the O&M file
- Clear dirt from joint lines during routine cleaning
- Inspect movement joints alongside other routine building checks
- Reopen bays and walkways only after the stated cure time
Add every elevation, deck and floor joint to your inspection round. 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 call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and send a picture.
Once debris packs a failed joint, the structure has nowhere to expand. The arrises crack and break away under the load. A sound seal keeps the joint working.
About our expansion joint sealing in Epsom
Brickwork and blockwork walls have vertical movement joints at intervals that most people only notice when the sealant has gone. Failed sealant here lets rain into the wall and can leave the joint full of debris. The old seal is cut away, backing rod goes in at depth, and a low-modulus masonry sealant is gunned and tooled, primed where the manufacturer specifies. We work on blockwork control joints, precast concrete panel joints and podiums and floor movement joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are joints packed with grit and debris and water dripping through deck or ramp joints. Searching for sealant specialists in Epsom? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Towns such as Epsom usually have an industrial estate or a few business units, with warehouse floors and loading areas. Small units are often busy, so joints are done at times that suit the occupier.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

General trades versus a specialist
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Different surfaces, different methods
Internal floor movement joints
Warehouse and retail floors have saw-cut induced joints and construction joints. Trafficked floor joints often get a semi-rigid filler and a flexible sealant where the joint moves more.
Cladding panel joints
Access to cladding joints is agreed before the price is fixed. Close-up photos help us judge the joints or a site visit fills the gaps.
Your questions answered
Will you take on work at estates like Eclipse Industrial Estate, close to Epsom?
Yes, sites like Eclipse Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Epsom. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Do we have to stop operations in Epsom while the joints are sealed?
Typically not: we work in sections and hand each one back once it has cured. The phasing plan comes with the quote.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
Is colour matching possible?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Can the building stay open while you work?
Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we are a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, and you deal with one contact throughout.
Common problems we fix in Epsom
Most movement joint failures come down to the joint stretching further than the sealant can take. Cohesive failure, a split through the centre, typically means the joint or product wasn’t right for the movement. The same product in the same joint tends to fail again unless width and product are reviewed.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- New sealant over old, now failing
- Car park joints leaking onto vehicles below
- Arrises breaking up along floor joints
- Sealant pulling off the joint face
University campuses such as University for the Creative Arts, 0.5 miles to the south-east of Epsom, have car parks, paved walkways and building elevations with movement joints.
Before you book anyone
