Expansion joint sealing in Little Ann, done properly
Brickwork and blockwork walls have vertical movement joints at intervals that most people only notice when the sealant has gone. 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’re dealing with leaks through car park deck joints onto the level below and joints packed with grit and debris, we can help, whatever the surface.

When to bring in a specialist
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Redoing a failed joint usually 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.
How the job changes by surface
Podium joints
Podium decks are exposed and often trafficked. A sealant suited to both traffic and exposure is used.
Concrete and precast panel joints
Precast and concrete panel joints move daily. We use a sealant classed for the movement, laid over backing to depth.

Questions about Little Ann
Is a hospital such as Andover War Memorial Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Is Little Ann too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
What sealant do you use in movement joints?
We choose a sealant with a movement capability that suits the joint as set out in BS EN ISO 11600. Where two different materials meet, a hybrid sealant can be the better choice.
When can you be on site?
Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll plan around them. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.
Is any job too small?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Photos and a description are enough to start.
What timescale should we allow for resealing expansion joints?
It normally takes a day or so for a modest run of joints, and longer where decks, ramps or floors are done in phases. Timings are set out in the quote.
What will the job cost?
There isn’t a price list, as every site differs. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
From enquiry to sign-off
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. The work itself usually takes a short visit for a handful of joints, or several days or more for a car park deck or long runs of facade joints, and we clear our waste as we work. If others near Little Ann need work, visits can be combined. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We start with photos, approximate lengths and any drawings, visiting where needed.
- We compare each joint’s width with the movement and the sealant’s capability, and flag anything that needs an engineer.
- Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
- Any broken arrises or friable edges are flagged before work goes further.
- A sealant suited to the movement and traffic is laid to depth and tooled.
- Areas reopen once cured, and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.

Joints that move: notes for Little Ann
Less than 3 miles from Little Ann there are at least three named estates and business parks. Floors, loading bays and yards on sites like these are where floor and movement joints work hardest. Little Ann is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Even so, yard and car park joints are only sealed when they’re dry and clean, and gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints.
On a site such as Plot 5 Andover Business Park, 1.5 miles to the north of Little Ann, the movement joints are in car park slabs, paving and building elevations. For a school such as Abbotts Ann Church of England Primary School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays. At a retail site such as Northern Avenue Retail Park, 2.6 miles to the north-east of Little Ann, trolleys, cages and cars run over floor and slab joints all day.

What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Mechanical expansion joint covers, cover plates or proprietary joint systems (a specialist supplier’s job)
- Broken or spalled joint edges, which need repairing before any sealant goes in
- Failed waterproofing membranes on podiums, roofs or decks (a waterproofing specialist’s job)
If you are not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal

Aftercare for building managers
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Include every elevation and deck joint in periodic inspections
- Act on the first tear or lifting edge rather than waiting
- Clear dirt from joint lines during routine cleaning
- Keep product details with the building records for the next reseal
Fresh joint sealant needs its full cure time before it takes traffic or water. How long that takes depends on the product, the temperature and the depth of the joint. Barriers left in place until then protect the finish.
Floor joints with failed fillers break up quickly under wheels. Damaged edges make the floor rough and wear wheels faster and the broken length grows with every pass. Keeping the filler or sealant sound protects the floor.
