Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
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. Smaller jobs around Horseport can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- Photos, joint lengths and drawings come to us, or we visit.
- We compare each joint’s width with the movement and the sealant’s capability and tell you if the design looks wrong for the movement.
- 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.
- A sealant suited to the movement and traffic is laid to depth and tooled.
- Each area is handed back after its cure time, under our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

How we handle expansion joint sealing in Horseport
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 chipped joint edges on forklift routes and water dripping through deck or ramp joints, on precast concrete panel joints, podiums and floor movement joints and car park decks and ramps. Most enquiries from Horseport start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Smaller community and commercial buildings around Horseport have their own movement joints in walls and floors. They’re easily forgotten until water gets in or an edge breaks.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Hampshire. Should something we installed fail, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will come back to it.

Quoting for work in Horseport
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we look at:
- The total length or number of joints
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.
Sending details for a quote
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas

Surface by surface
Car park decks and ramps
Water coming through deck joints is the usual first sign. The old seal comes out, the edges are prepared and the joint resealed flagging broken edges along the way.
Concrete and precast panel joints
Concrete edges can be weak or carry release agents that stop adhesion. Proper cleaning and primer where specified give a sound bond, so the new seal holds.
Leave it or put it right?
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. We’ll flag where edges need repair before sealing. Around Horseport, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
A quote for movement joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Questions we are asked in Horseport
Is Horseport too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Is Arch Farm Industrial Estate, near Horseport, within your area?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Horseport, Arch Farm Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Why do our movement joints keep failing?
It depends on how the sealant has let go: tearing down the centre means too much movement, and lifting off one side means poor adhesion. Sometimes the edge material itself has failed.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
In many cases, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Which sealant will you use?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Is any job too small?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.
Traffic, movement and joints around Horseport
Rainfall across the South East, Horseport included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, and where de-icing salt is spread in winter, open joints let it in. The 3 miles around Horseport take in at least three named trading estates, business parks or retail parks. Floors, loading bays and yards on sites like these are where floor and movement joints work hardest.
If you manage units on an estate such as Arch Farm Industrial Estate, which lies north-west of Horseport, the floor joints under forklifts and pallet trucks and the slab joints in the yard are the ones to watch. At places like Fordingbridge Business Park, 0.9 miles west of Horseport, joints are sealed a section at a time so operations carry on. Schools like Fordingbridge Infant School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly.

When it isn’t the sealant

- Failed waterproofing membranes on podiums, roofs or decks (a waterproofing specialist’s job)
- Changing the joint layout or spacing of a structure
- Damaged metal nosings or cover plates over a joint
