Expansion joint sealing in Knights Enham, done properly
A movement joint only works while its seal does. Once it fails, water, grit and debris get in. Resealing at the first signs of failure is far cheaper than repairing the material either side. Most enquiries involve hardened, cracked sealant on exposed facades and damp inside where a wall movement joint has failed, across blockwork control joints, precast concrete panel joints and podiums and floor movement joints.

Jobs around smaller places like Knights Enham are planned so the whole job is done in one visit. Tell us the joint widths if you can, and what drives or walks over them.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

How a job runs
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we’re in, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Smaller jobs around Knights Enham can be grouped with others nearby. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- First the joints are inspected, widths measured and the type of failure noted.
- You receive a fixed quote stating the product and the movement it is rated for.
- Phasing is agreed so decks, floors or entrances can stay in use where needed.
- We strip the old sealant or filler and prepare each face until it’s sound and dry.
- Backing rod or bond-breaker sets the depth, primer goes on where specified, and the sealant is applied and tooled.
- We check each joint with you, confirm the cure time and sign off under our 12-month guarantee.

Questions we’re asked in Knights Enham
Do you cover business parks and estates near Knights Enham, such as Glenmore Trade Park?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Knights Enham, Glenmore Trade Park among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Andover Hospital (Grounds)?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. A group of buildings can go on one quote, and you deal with one contact throughout.
What do you charge?
It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a fixed quote and we will price it properly.
Which sealant will you use?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
What we can’t put right
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Joints too narrow for the movement, which need redesigning by the engineer
- Structural movement beyond what the joints were designed for (that needs a structural engineer)
- Proprietary pre-formed expansion joint systems
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Precast concrete panel joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
- Brickwork movement joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Car park decks and ramps
- Blockwork control joints
Floors, slabs and movement joints in Knights Enham
Rainfall across the South East, Knights Enham included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, yard and car park joints are only sealed when they’re dry and clean, while winter salting gets into any joint left open. Less than 3 miles from Knights Enham there are at least three named estates and business parks. Sites like these are full of saw-cut floor joints, yard slabs and car park joints.
Hospital campuses such as Andover Hospital (Grounds) (1.3 miles south-west of Knights Enham) grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old. In a school such as Roman Way Primary School, movement joints in brick, block and hall floors tend to be forgotten until they leak.

When to call us in Knights Enham
Repeated failure often traces back to the wrong product. Products not classed for the movement fail early. BS EN ISO 11600 classifies building sealants by movement capability, and specifications often refer to it.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Arrises breaking up along floor joints
- Brittle, chalky sealant on external joints
- Expansion joints split through the centre of the bead
- Sealant peeling off one face of the joint
For an occupier at a site such as Glenmore Trade Park, 0.8 miles to the south of Knights Enham, the joints at loading doors and dock levellers normally see the hardest wear.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- How they’ll work around occupants
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid

When to bring in a specialist
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
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.
Surface by surface
Cladding panel joints
We confirm what access is in place before pricing. Photos taken near the joints help us price accurately or a site visit fills the gaps.
Concrete and precast panel joints
Joints between precast panels open and close with temperature and loading. The sealant needs the right movement capability and a controlled depth.
