Expansion joint sealing in Farleigh Green
Buildings and slabs are never completely still: temperature, moisture, shrinkage and loading all make materials grow and shrink. Movement joints are where that movement is absorbed. We seal and reseal movement joints in walls, panels, decks and floors. We work on podiums and floor movement joints, precast concrete panel joints and blockwork control joints, and what we’re called in for most is joints where the bead has lost adhesion and debris jammed in movement joints. Searching for sealant specialists in Farleigh Green? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Jobs around smaller places like Farleigh Green are planned so the whole job is done in one visit. Note joint widths and the traffic that uses them, and we will take it from there.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Our process
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. While we are working, the area stays contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. Smaller jobs around Farleigh Green can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We start with photos, approximate lengths and any drawings, visiting where needed.
- We compare each joint’s width with the movement and the sealant’s capability, and flag anything that needs an engineer.
- Every joint is cleared of the failed seal and any grit packed into it.
- Edges are checked, and we tell you if any need repairing before sealing.
- 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 what induction or permit system the site runs
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Point out parking and an unloading spot

What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Failed waterproofing membranes on podiums, roofs or decks (a waterproofing specialist’s job)
- A joint that has to be widened or re-detailed before it can work
- Cracking or settlement that calls for an engineer’s assessment
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Cladding panel joints
- Brickwork movement joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
- Blockwork control joints
- Car park decks and ramps
- Precast concrete panel joints
What we’re called out for in Farleigh Green
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, which is why depth control matters.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Previous reseals laid over old sealant
- Arrises breaking up along floor joints
- Movement joints with split or torn sealant
- Damp inside where a wall movement joint has failed
Hospitals like Maidstone Hospital, 2 miles north-east of Farleigh Green, have multi-storey or surface car parks whose joints carry vehicles round the clock.
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- The named product and why it was chosen
Why it’s worth doing now in Farleigh Green
A like-for-like reseal of a joint that keeps splitting rarely lasts. If the joint is too narrow or the product wrong for the movement, it needs a different approach and we’ll tell you honestly. Around Farleigh Green, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote when you are ready.
Why appoint us
- CHAS accredited
- Work carried out by CSCS-carded applicators
- Colours chosen to suit frames, cladding or finishes where possible
- A fixed quote before work starts
Take a look at our cost guide or how we’re accredited.
Cost factors for movement joints
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Joint width, depth and condition
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.
Sending details for a quote
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- When you need the work done
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The site address and postcode
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
After the work
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- 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
- Treat a small split as a warning, not a cosmetic issue
- Inspect exposed joints once the cold weather has passed
Debris does more harm to joint sealant than most people realise. Stones pressed into the bead by wheels or feet can puncture it. A routine sweep is the simplest protection.
Joints sealed at the same time generally fail around the same time. It pays to check every joint, not just the obvious one so you can prioritise and budget. We can suggest an order, worst joints first.

Are expansion joints and movement joints the same thing?
Put simply, it’s a planned break in a wall, slab or deck so the materials can move. Many people call it an expansion joint and both need a flexible seal.
