About our expansion joint sealing in Ingrams Green
Brickwork and blockwork walls have vertical movement joints at intervals. Once the seal fails, rain reaches the cavity and the joint can no longer close. The old seal is cut away, backing rod goes in at depth, and a low-modulus masonry sealant is gunned and tooled. If you have previous reseals laid over old sealant and weathered movement joint sealant that no longer flexes, we can help. Most enquiries from Ingrams Green 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 Ingrams Green have their own movement joints in walls and floors. They’re easily forgotten until water gets in or an edge breaks.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Doing it in-house
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Owners, agents and contractors
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Why deal with it now?
Resealing is typically the answer, not replacing the element. If the material either side is sound, a properly prepared reseal restores the joint. If the edges have broken up, we’ll tell you they need repairing first. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Ingrams Green, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
Why appoint us
- Matching to RAL references, product permitting
- Colour agreed before work starts

- 12 months’ guarantee on every job
What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Waterproofing layers buried beneath the sealant
- Broken or spalled joint edges, which need repairing before any sealant goes in
- Structural movement beyond what the joints were designed for (that needs a structural engineer)
If you are not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Expansion joint sealing around Ingrams Green: what changes locally
Central London is about 47 miles from Ingrams Green. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London. Less than 3 miles from Ingrams Green there are two named estates and business parks. That puts plenty of warehouse floors, service yards and car parks close by, all with joints under traffic.
Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Holmbush Industrial Estate (2.3 miles east of Ingrams Green): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time.

For an estate such as Midhurst Community Hospital, 3 miles to the east of Ingrams Green, the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time.

Maintenance after handover
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Keep scrapers and ploughs from dragging across joint sealant
- Reopen bays and walkways only after the stated cure time
- Include every elevation and deck joint in periodic inspections
- Avoid parking heavy plant or pallets on joint lines
Add every elevation, deck and floor joint to your inspection round. A periodic look picks up tears and lifting before water gets in, when they’re still cheap to deal with. If anything looks wrong, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with photographs.
Unsupported floor joint edges spall under forklift and pallet-truck wheels. Broken arrises jolt trucks, loads and drivers. Keeping the filler or sealant sound protects the floor.
How a job runs
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. For work around Ingrams Green, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- First the joints are inspected, widths measured and the type of failure noted.
- 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.
- We strip the old sealant or filler and prepare each face until it’s sound and dry.
- 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
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions

Advice
FAQs: Ingrams Green
Does your area include sites such as Midhurst Business Centre, near Ingrams Green?
Yes. Our area takes in Ingrams Green and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Midhurst Business Centre included. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is Ingrams Green 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. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Do you take on small jobs?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
How do we ask for a quote?
There are four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. The first step only needs photos and a postcode.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
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.
Can you quote from photos?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photographs and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs usually get a visit.
