Questions we are asked in Green Cross
Do we have to stop operations in Green Cross while the joints are sealed?
Typically not: we work in sections and hand each one back once it has cured. Tell us which hours and entrances we can use and we will plan from there.
Is Green Cross too far out for you?
No. Places such as Green Cross are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we will ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.
How long before the joints can be used?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.
Can you seal joints in cold or wet weather?
Outside work depends on conditions. Internal floor joints are far less affected.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, which many sites require.
Expansion joint sealing for commercial buildings in Green Cross
Every structure moves a little, all the time: temperature, moisture, shrinkage and loading all make materials grow and shrink. Expansion and movement joints are built in so the structure can move without cracking. We seal and reseal movement joints in walls, panels, decks and floors on sites in Green Cross. Most enquiries involve rain penetration at brick or block movement joints and previous reseals laid over old sealant, on blockwork control joints, podiums and floor movement joints and brickwork movement joints. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Green Cross first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
For a site near Green Cross, measurements and photographs up front mean one trip where possible. Tell us the joint widths if you can, and what drives or walks over them.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Surrey. Should something we installed fail, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will come back to it.

When to bring in a specialist
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. 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.
What we can’t put right
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Waterproofing layers buried beneath the sealant
- Crumbling edges that would give a new bead nothing sound to grip
- Mechanical expansion joint covers, cover plates or proprietary joint systems (a specialist supplier’s job)
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Precast concrete panel joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Blockwork control joints
- Brickwork movement joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
- Car park decks and ramps
Owners, agents and contractors
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
How the quote is worked out
These are the things that shape the price:
- Working within restricted access windows
- How much there is to seal
- The product specified
- The size and state of each joint
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Before you send an enquiry
We can often quote from photos and a few details. It helps to include:
- Specification clauses that apply
- Access details, including height
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
Why deal with it now?
Spot repairs can be useful on a tight budget. But if the rest of the run is the same age and product, it’s normally not far behind. We can price a patch and a full reseal side by side. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Green Cross. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote.
Why us?
- Colour options checked against the specified product
- One number for every site we cover
- Failed material removed, not covered up
- Public liability insurance in place
Our process
We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. Once we are cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. For work around Green Cross, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- First the joints are inspected, widths measured and the type of failure noted.
- You receive a fixed quote stating the product and the movement it is rated for.
- Phasing is agreed so decks, floors or entrances can stay in use where needed.
- We strip the old sealant or filler and prepare each face until it’s sound and dry.
- Depth is controlled with backing, the faces are primed where the maker calls for it, then the bead is laid and tooled.
- We check each joint with you, confirm the cure time and sign off under our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Confirm the product named in the specification

Expansion joint sealing around Green Cross: points for this area
Rainfall across the South East, Green Cross included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External joints still wait for dry conditions, and gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints. At about 38 miles from central London, Green Cross is within reach of the capital. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London.
Large sites such as Haslemere and District Hospital, 3.8 miles south-east of Green Cross, have car parks, service roads and long elevations with movement joints in brick and panels. In a school such as St John's CofE Aided Infant School, movement joints in brick, block and hall floors tend to be forgotten until they leak.
