When to call us in Hammer Bottom
Sometimes the sealant holds but the substrate breaks away. Weak or crumbling concrete, brick or render edges give the sealant nothing sound to grip so edge repair has to come before resealing.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Sealant pulling off the joint face
- Previous reseals laid over old sealant
- Expansion joints split through the centre of the bead
- Arrises breaking up along floor joints
Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Unicorn Trading Estate (1.9 miles east of Hammer Bottom): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
Expansion joint sealing for commercial buildings in Hammer Bottom
Floor movement joints in warehouses, retail and public buildings carry wheeled traffic. Without a sound filler, joint edges chip and spall under load so the product has to suit both the traffic and the movement. We’ll tell you if the edges need repairing before sealing and phasing can keep areas working. The enquiries we see most involve arrises breaking up along floor joints and hardened, cracked sealant on exposed facades, across podiums and floor movement joints, cladding panel joints and blockwork control joints. Whoever orders the work in Hammer Bottom, the brief is normally the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Smaller community and commercial buildings around Hammer Bottom have their own movement joints in walls and floors. They tend to be overlooked until something leaks or cracks.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Hammer Bottom
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first.
Building owners and managing agents use us on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
What we can’t put right
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Joints too narrow for the movement, which need redesigning by the engineer
- Proprietary pre-formed expansion joint systems
- Failed waterproofing membranes on podiums, roofs or decks (a waterproofing specialist’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal

Our process
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Jobs in and around smaller places like Hammer Bottom are normally planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- Photos, joint lengths and drawings come to us, or we visit.
- Joint widths and expected movement are checked against what the sealant can take, and flag anything that needs an engineer.
- Every joint is cleared of the failed seal and any grit packed into it.
- Edges are checked, and we tell you if any need repairing before sealing.
- The right sealant goes in at the right depth, bonded to the two sides only.
- Areas reopen once cured, and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Surface by surface
Brickwork and blockwork joints
Long brick and block elevations have movement joints at intervals. We use a sealant rated for the movement, normally low-modulus, with backing rod setting the depth.
Joints between different materials
Some mixed-material joints suit a hybrid sealant. We pick the product for the materials and the movement.
How the quote is worked out
These are the things that shape the price:
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Access and working height
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
What we need to price the job
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- The site address and postcode
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Any dates the work must fit around
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
