Questions we’re asked in Langrish
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Petersfield Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is a smaller place like Langrish outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, as many construction sites ask for.
Why has the sealant in our expansion joints split?
Usually the joint is moving more than the sealant can take. We review the joint design as well as the sealant before pricing.
Which sealant will you use?
The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Expansion joint sealing in Langrish, done properly
Long runs of brick or block have movement joints built in. 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, primed where the manufacturer specifies. We work on precast concrete panel joints, car park decks and ramps and podiums and floor movement joints, and what we’re called in for most is rain penetration at brick or block movement joints and layers of sealant in a movement joint. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Langrish it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Jobs around smaller places like Langrish 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.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Keeping the joints sound
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Keep scrapers and ploughs from dragging across joint sealant
- Keep stones and debris out of open joint lines
- Inspect movement joints alongside other routine building checks
- Avoid parking heavy plant or pallets on joint lines
Keep wheels, feet and water off new joints until the sealant has cured. How long that takes depends on the product, the temperature and the depth of the joint and we’ll tell you when each bay or area can reopen. Barriers left in place until then protect the finish.
On a multi-storey car park, a failed joint normally shows up as a leak onto the deck underneath. Salty water dripping through stains soffits and lands on parked vehicles, which is bad news for the concrete and the people parking below. Sealing the joint promptly stops it at source.
Doing it in-house
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
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.
Expansion joint sealing in Langrish: the local picture
At about 52 miles from central London, Langrish is within reach of the capital. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London, and their floor joints take forklift and pallet-truck traffic all day. Langrish sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External joints still wait for dry conditions, while winter salting gets into any joint left open.
For an estate such as Petersfield Hospital, 2.3 miles to the east of Langrish, the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time. For a school such as Langrish Primary School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays.
Langrish is about 3 miles west of Petersfield, in Hampshire. We cover Langrish, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. We work across 723 places in Hampshire, from busy centres to rural villages. Our Portsmouth page has more on work in that area.

From enquiry to sign-off
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before we move to the next. For work around Langrish, we aim to finish in one visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- 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.
- 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
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

Why it’s worth doing now in Langrish
Doing joint resealing alongside other planned works can save on access. Leaking joints need sealing now, as damage continues meanwhile. We can split the scope into urgent and planned. For buildings around smaller places like Langrish, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.

Different surfaces, different methods
Joints between different materials
Junctions between brick and render, or concrete and cladding, move independently. We choose a sealant that grips both faces.
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.
When something else is needed
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- A joint that has to be widened or re-detailed before it can work
- Failed waterproofing membranes on podiums, roofs or decks (a waterproofing specialist’s job)
- Crumbling edges that would give a new bead nothing sound to grip
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will tell you honestly.
