FAQs: Lower Eashing
Is a smaller place like Lower Eashing outside your area?
Not at all. Lower Eashing is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Milford Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. A group of buildings can go on one quote, with one point of contact across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
How long will the joint resealing take?
Allow anything from part of a day to a couple of weeks, depending on joint lengths, widths and access. Timings are set out in the quote, including any phasing.
What exactly is a movement joint?
It’s a deliberate gap that lets the structure move without cracking. Expansion joint is a name often used for the same thing.
What hours do you work?
Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we will plan around them. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.
How long before the joints can be used?
We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
Doing it in-house
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Signs you need expansion joint sealing in Lower Eashing
Weathering wears down sealant on exposed elevations and decks. UV hardens the surface, and the sealant loses its ability to stretch, so it can’t follow the movement any more.
Look out for the following:
- Rain penetration at brick or block movement joints
- Debris jammed in movement joints
- Layers of sealant in a movement joint
- Expansion joints split through the centre of the bead
Schools like St Mary's CofE Voluntary Controlled Infant School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly.
Before you book anyone
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- The named product and why it was chosen
When it isn’t the sealant
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Proprietary pre-formed expansion joint systems
- Joints too narrow for the movement, which need redesigning by the engineer
- Cracking or settlement that calls for an engineer’s assessment
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before you book.

Expansion joint sealing around Lower Eashing: points for this area
At about 32 miles from central London, Lower Eashing is within reach of the capital. Distribution warehouses and industrial estates are common around the motorway corridors that serve the capital; their floors carry heavy traffic every shift. Lower Eashing is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Outside joints in yards and car parks still have to be dry before sealing, and where de-icing salt is spread in winter, open joints let it in.
Another example is Home Farm Business Park, 2.8 miles north-east of Lower Eashing, where floors and yards would be done in stages around the occupiers. Parks like Godalming Business Centre, 1.9 miles east of Lower Eashing, combine paved areas, car parks and building elevations, each with joints that move.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work typically takes a few hours to several weeks, depending on how many metres of joint there are and how much old sealant or filler needs removing, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Rural sites near Lower Eashing may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- The first job is to check each joint: how wide it is, how it moves and why the old seal let go.
- A fixed quote follows, naming the sealant and its movement class.
- We strip out the old seal and prepare the faces, flagging any broken edges that need repair before sealing.
- Backing rod goes in at the right depth, or bond-breaker tape where the joint is shallow.
- After any primer the maker requires, the bead is applied and tooled so it grips two sides only.
- Finished joints are checked and backed by our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

Advice
Surface by surface
Joints between different materials
Some mixed-material joints suit a hybrid sealant. We pick the product for the materials and the movement, and confirm it in the quote.
Internal floor movement joints
Floor joints include saw-cut joints and construction joints. Trafficked floor joints often get a semi-rigid filler.
