How we handle expansion joint sealing in Green Street Green
Buildings and slabs are never completely still: they expand in the heat, shrink as they dry, and shift under load. Movement joints are where that movement is absorbed. Mastic Doctor reseals movement joints in brickwork, blockwork, concrete, cladding and floors for buildings in Green Street Green. Most enquiries involve torn sealant in brick or block movement joints and expansion joints filled with dirt and stones, across podiums and floor movement joints, brickwork movement joints and blockwork control joints. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Green Street Green, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
In and around smaller places like Green Street Green, 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 we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Work for main contractors and building owners
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
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.
Questions about Green Street Green
Is Green Street Green too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Green Street Green are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Darent Valley Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Do you use silicone or polyurethane in movement joints?
The specification comes first, then the joint’s movement and exposure. The quote states the sealant and its movement class.
What guarantee do you give on joint sealing?
The 12-month guarantee applies to the workmanship. If a joint we sealed fails inside the 12 months, let us know.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
How do we ask for a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photos and a postcode.
Aftercare for building managers
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Reopen bays and walkways only after the stated cure time
- Check joints after long freezing spells
- Avoid parking heavy plant or pallets on joint lines
- Report split or peeling joint sealant early
Our workmanship on movement joints carries a 12-month guarantee. Keep the handover details, product and date with your O&M records.
Floor joints with failed fillers break up quickly under wheels. Damaged edges make the floor rough and wear wheels faster, and the damage spreads along the joint. Sealing early protects the edges.
Our process
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, with the work itself usually taking a short visit for a handful of joints, or several days or more for a car park deck or long runs of facade joints. For a building around Green Street Green, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- First, the joints are inspected for width, movement and the type of failure.
- Next, we fix a price and confirm the sealant we propose for the movement.
- We strip out the old seal and prepare the faces, flagging any broken edges that need repair before sealing.
- Closed-cell backing rod is set to depth, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints.
- After any primer the maker requires, the bead is applied and tooled so it grips two sides only.
- Each joint is inspected and handed over with our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Send your site hours and access windows

How the job changes by surface
Joints between different materials
Hybrid or MS polymer sealants bond to many substrates. We pick the product for the materials and the movement.
Brickwork and blockwork joints
Mortar snots and debris in the joint stop it working. We clear the joint fully before sealing, and tell you if the joint looks too narrow for the movement.
Honest limits
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Failed waterproofing membranes on podiums, roofs or decks (a waterproofing specialist’s job)
- Damaged metal nosings or cover plates over a joint
- Concrete or masonry repairs along the arrises
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on

What else we do in Green Street Green
Should maintenance staff do it?
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
