Maintenance after handover
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Brief car park operatives to protect joint lines during winter clearance
- Reopen bays and walkways only after the stated cure time
- Treat a small split as a warning, not a cosmetic issue
- Avoid parking heavy plant or pallets on joint lines
Movement joints belong on the planned maintenance inspection list. A periodic look picks up tears and lifting before water gets in and long before edges start to break. Should you spot a problem, you can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and send a picture.
A failed deck joint lets water straight through to the level below. 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.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Why it’s worth doing now in Martyr's Green
Spot repairs can be useful on a tight budget. But if the rest of the run is the same age and product, it’s typically not far behind. Where it helps, we quote both options. For buildings around smaller places like Martyr's Green, 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. Resealing early avoids that.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

How the job changes by surface
Podium joints
On podiums, the joint can belong to a larger waterproofing detail. We reseal the joint where sealant is the specified fix.
Internal floor movement joints
Forklift and pallet-truck wheels break unsupported joint edges. We match the product to the traffic and the movement.
Traffic, movement and joints around Martyr's Green

The roads out of London are lined with trade parks and distribution sheds, and their floor joints take forklift and pallet-truck traffic all day. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Outside joints in yards and car parks still have to be dry before sealing, while winter salting gets into any joint left open.

Warehouse floors on estates like Bookham Industrial Estate, 2.6 miles to the south-east of Martyr's Green, carry pallet trucks and forklifts over every saw-cut joint.

Your questions answered
Is Bookham Industrial Estate, near Martyr's Green, within your area?
Yes. We cover Martyr's Green and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Bookham Industrial Estate. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Cobham Community Hospital and Health Centre?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
What if the joint edges are damaged?
Sound edges are essential. Where they’ve broken up, we will tell you they need repairing first so you’re not paying for a bead that won’t hold.
Can you seal car park deck joints?
Yes. Tell us how the car park is used and which areas must stay open, and we’ll plan the phasing around it.
What’s the difference between an expansion joint and a movement joint?
Put simply, it’s a planned break in a wall, slab or deck so the materials can move. Many people call it an expansion joint and both need a flexible seal.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.
On site: what to expect
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. For work around Martyr's Green, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.

When something else is needed
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We will tell you if the real problem is one of these:
