Expansion joint sealing for Hailey sites
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
When something else is needed
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- 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)
- Movement on a scale no sealant is meant to absorb
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Cladding panel joints
- Brickwork movement joints

Expansion joint sealing in Hailey
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, and the sealant in them keeps water and debris out. Mastic Doctor reseals movement joints in brickwork, blockwork, concrete, cladding and floors for buildings in Hailey. If you have movement joints with split or torn sealant and brittle, chalky sealant on external joints, we can put it right, on blockwork control joints, brickwork movement joints and podiums and floor movement joints alike. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Hailey it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
In and around smaller places like Hailey, 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.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. Should something we installed fail, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll come back to it.

Hailey: questions and answers
Is Hailey too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Would you work within a site like Witney Community Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
What hours do you work?
We’re in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.
Does the weather affect the work?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
Do you use silicone or polyurethane in movement joints?
We choose a sealant with a movement capability that suits the joint. Where two different materials meet, a hybrid sealant can be the better choice.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
What happens if it’s left?
Some quotes just add sealant over the old bead. A bead over the old seal can’t bond or flex. We cut out the old seal and prepare the faces every time. For buildings around smaller places like Hailey, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
Why us?
- Old sealant cut out, never sealed over
- RAL and finish matching where the product range allows
- Health and safety: CHAS accredited
- Fully insured

General trades versus a specialist
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work usually takes a day or so for a modest run of joints, and longer where decks, ramps or floors are done in phases. Smaller jobs around Hailey can be grouped with others nearby. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- We assess the joints on site or from photos, noting widths and how each has failed.
- A fixed quote names the sealant we propose and its movement class.
- Where areas have to stay open, we agree a phased sequence before starting.
- The failed seal is cut out and both joint faces cleaned back to sound material.
- Depth is controlled with backing, the faces are primed where the maker calls for it, then the bead is laid and tooled.
- Finished joints are inspected, the cure time confirmed and the 12-month guarantee applies.
What we need from you
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Point out parking and an unloading spot

Advice
What we are called out for in Hailey
Car park decks and floors face loads that walls never see. Tyres and wheels press on the edges and the sealant. A sealant that isn’t trafficable won’t last there.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Rain penetration at brick or block movement joints
- Brittle, chalky sealant on external joints
- Layers of sealant in a movement joint
- Sealant pulling off the joint face
Schools such as Hailey Church of England Primary School have movement joints in their walls and floors that are easy to overlook.
What your quote should include
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- The named product and why it was chosen
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
Maintenance after handover
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Put movement joints on the planned maintenance inspection round
- Note which joints were done, when, and with what
- Act on the first tear or lifting edge rather than waiting
- Keep stones and debris out of open joint lines
Fresh joint sealant needs its full cure time before it takes traffic or water. How long that takes depends on the product, the temperature and the depth of the joint, and we confirm it for each area before we leave. Keeping the area coned off until then avoids tyre marks and damage.
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.
