Expansion joint sealing across Gossops Green

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

What happens if it’s left?

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. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.

Pricing movement joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Call for a quote.

Expansion joint sealing for commercial buildings in Gossops Green

We’ve been sealing expansion and movement joints for over 20 years, for main contractors, FMs, managing agents and building owners. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, we’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and we carry five million pounds of public liability insurance. Workmanship is backed by our 12-month guarantee. If you have expansion joints split through the centre of the bead and weathered movement joint sealant that no longer flexes, we can help, whatever the surface. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Gossops Green it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

In a smaller place such as Gossops Green, floor and movement joints are often in agricultural and rural business units, schools and the odd small industrial yard. Their slabs and walls still need movement joints that work.

Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

How the quote is worked out

Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:

  • The size and state of each joint
  • Access and working height
  • The site’s rules and procedures
  • Location, for remote and island sites

What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.

Before you send an enquiry

For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:

  • Access details, including height
  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • Your programme or deadline
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule

To get a fixed quote, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos. Our quote form is another easy route.

What the job involves on each surface

Internal floor movement joints

Forklift and pallet-truck wheels break unsupported joint edges. The right filler or sealant for the traffic and movement protects them.

Car park decks and ramps

Failed deck joints often show as leaks on the level below. The old seal comes out, the edges are prepared and the joint resealed.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. For a job in Gossops Green, the main thing is a clear picture of the work. You’ll then get a fixed price for the work.

  1. We assess the joints on site or from photographs, noting widths and how each has failed.
  2. You receive a fixed quote stating the product and the movement it is rated for.
  3. Where areas have to stay open, we agree a phased sequence before starting.
  4. We strip the old sealant or filler and prepare each face until it’s sound and dry.
  5. Depth is controlled with backing, the faces are primed where the maker calls for it, then the bead is laid and tooled.
  6. Finished joints are inspected, the cure time confirmed and the 12-month guarantee applies.

Preparing the site

  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot
  • Confirm the product named in the specification

Advice

After the work

To get the most from the new sealant:

  • Keep scrapers and ploughs from dragging across joint sealant
  • Keep product details with the building records for the next reseal
  • Reopen bays and walkways only after the stated cure time
  • Keep stones and debris out of open joint lines

Snow ploughs and scrapers catch on joint lines. Raising blades over joints where possible protects the seal, and it’s worth checking joints once the cold weather has passed.

Joints sealed at the same time generally fail around the same time. Inspecting the whole run is worth the effort. We can suggest an order, worst joints first.
