After the work
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Keep traffic off new joints until the cure time is up
- Raise snow-clearing blades over deck joints where possible
- Avoid parking heavy plant or pallets on joint lines
- Record the sealant used and the date in the O&M file
Snow ploughs and scrapers catch on joint lines. Lifting the blade at each joint avoids tearing the bead.
Unsupported floor joint edges spall under forklift and pallet-truck wheels. Broken arrises jolt trucks, loads and drivers, and the damage spreads along the joint. Sealing early protects the edges.
Joints that move: notes for Gundleton
Gundleton sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, and gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints. Less than 3 miles from Gundleton there are two named estates and business parks. Sites like these are full of saw-cut floor joints, yard slabs and car park joints.
Office parks like Lower Soldridge Business Park (2.3 miles north-east of Gundleton) have decks, ramps and clad elevations whose joints take movement every day. For a school such as Perins School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays. At places like Barton Industrial Estate (2.9 miles north of Gundleton), joints are sealed a section at a time so operations carry on.

Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Gundleton
A failed joint seal doesn’t mean the slab, panel or wall needs replacing. Where the edges are sound, cutting out and resealing is enough. If the edges have broken up, we will tell you they need repairing first. Older rural buildings around Gundleton move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Doing it in-house
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
Common questions from Gundleton clients
Is Lower Soldridge Business Park, near Gundleton, within your area?
Yes. Our area takes in Gundleton and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Lower Soldridge Business Park included. To start, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Does a site in Gundleton have to shut while its joints are sealed?
In most cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. The phasing plan comes with the quote.
Does the weather affect the work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
What exactly is a movement joint?
Movement joint is the broad term for any joint built in to let a structure move. In everyday use the two names are often swapped, and the sealing method is much the same.
How long before the joints can be used?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.
How long will the joint resealing take?
It usually takes a short visit for a handful of joints, or several days or more for a car park deck or long runs of facade joints. We confirm the timescale with the quote, including any phasing.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we will price the work to it.
