Expansion joint sealing in Hampton Poyle
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Different surfaces, different methods
Brickwork and blockwork joints
Masonry faces are often porous, dusty or crumbly. Faces are prepared and primed wherever the sealant maker calls for it, then seal and tool the joint.
Joints between different materials
Different materials meeting at a joint rarely move in step. We choose a sealant that grips both faces priming where the maker calls for it.

Our process
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. While we’re working, the area stays contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. Jobs in and around smaller places like Hampton Poyle are usually planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We assess the joints on site or from photos, noting widths and how each has failed.
- You receive a fixed quote stating the product and the movement it is rated for.
- 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.
- Backing rod or bond-breaker sets the depth, primer goes on where specified, and the sealant is applied and tooled.
- Finished joints are inspected, the cure time confirmed and the 12-month guarantee applies.
Before we start on site
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
Ask for a quote
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.
Advice
When to bring in a specialist
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Broken or spalled joint edges, which need repairing before any sealant goes in
- Movement on a scale no sealant is meant to absorb
- Joints too narrow for the movement, which need redesigning by the engineer
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think before you book.

FAQs: Hampton Poyle
Is Cherwell Business Centre, near Hampton Poyle, within your area?

Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Acland Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Is any job too small?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Who decides which product is used?
The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Can you work on car park ramps and decks?
Yes. Tell us how the car park is used and which areas must stay open.
How much does the work cost?
It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote and we’ll price it properly.
Can you seal joints in cold or wet weather?
Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range. Frost, rain and condensation on steel or concrete can hold up external work.
