Expansion joint sealing for businesses in Eyhorne Street

Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.

Why act early in Eyhorne Street

A torn seal left alone normally gets worse. Water and debris get in, the joint jams and the edges spall, so a reseal turns into an edge repair as well. Resealing early keeps the work to sealant. For buildings around smaller places like Eyhorne Street, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.

Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Expansion joint sealing in Eyhorne Street, done properly

Mastic Doctor has sealed movement joints since 2005, for main contractors, FMs, managing agents and building owners. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and we carry five million pounds of public liability insurance. Each job is backed by a 12-month guarantee on the workmanship. Most enquiries involve hardened, cracked sealant on exposed facades and water getting into the wall through a failed joint, on blockwork control joints, podiums and floor movement joints and car park decks and ramps. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Eyhorne Street tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.

In and around smaller places like Eyhorne Street, 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.

Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Should maintenance staff do it?

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.

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Questions we are asked in Eyhorne Street

Is Eyhorne Street off your patch?

No. Places such as Eyhorne Street are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Is Roebuck Business Park, near Eyhorne Street, within your area?

Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Eyhorne Street, Roebuck Business Park among them, are all within reach. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

How long will the new sealant last?

It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.

What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?

Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.

Which sealant will you use?

The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. If you need card details for site access, tell us and we will confirm them with the quote.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.

Quoting for work in Eyhorne Street

To price the job, we consider:

  • Which sealant the job calls for
  • Whether the work must be split into stages
  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • The size and state of each joint

We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.

Details that help us quote

The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:

  • The postcode of the building
  • Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
  • Any specification or named product
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.

Common problems we fix in Eyhorne Street

Repeated failure often traces back to the wrong product. Products not classed for the movement fail early. BS EN ISO 11600 classifies building sealants by movement capability.

If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:

  • Arrises breaking up along floor joints
  • Layers of sealant in a movement joint
  • Hardened, cracked sealant on exposed facades
  • Joints where the bead has lost adhesion

For a school such as Hollingbourne Primary School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays.

Comparing quotes

  • How they handle RAMS and site documents
  • Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
  • Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it

Traffic, movement and joints around Eyhorne Street

Eyhorne Street is about 35 miles from central London. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London, and their floor joints take forklift and pallet-truck traffic all day. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, and gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints.

Business parks such as Roebuck Business Park (2.3 miles south-east of Eyhorne Street) have car parks, paved areas and long brick and panel elevations, all with movement joints. University campuses such as Canterbury Christ Church University (to the east of Eyhorne Street) have car parks, paved walkways and building elevations with movement joints.

How a job runs

Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. If others near Eyhorne Street need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.

  1. We look at the joints, their width and how they’ve failed.
  2. You get a fixed quote with the product and its movement capability stated.
  3. We strip out the old seal and prepare the faces, 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. Each joint is inspected and handed over with our 12-month guarantee.

Before we start on site

  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Send your site hours and access windows
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
