Doing it in-house
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Paperwork matters too. 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.
How we handle expansion joint sealing in Mulberry Green
Internal floor joints take trolleys, pallet trucks and forklifts. Without a sound filler, joint edges chip and spall under load. We will tell you if the edges need repairing before sealing and phasing can keep areas working. We work on blockwork control joints, podiums and floor movement joints and cladding panel joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are spalled or broken joint edges in floors and decks and joints where the bead has lost adhesion. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Mulberry Green is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Around smaller places such as Mulberry Green, floor joints are often in barns and farm buildings turned into workshops, stores and offices. Whether it’s a farm store turned workshop or a storage unit, the joints need a product that suits the traffic.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

What else we do in Mulberry Green
Our process
We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact. Rural sites near Mulberry Green may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we’ll build it into the plan.
- First the joints are inspected, widths measured and the type of failure noted.
- A fixed quote names the sealant we propose and its movement class.
- 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.
- Finished joints are inspected, the cure time confirmed and the 12-month guarantee applies.
What we need from you
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
Getting a fixed quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.

Common questions from Mulberry Green clients
Is Mulberry Green too far out for you?
Not at all. Mulberry Green is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Mulberry Green, such as Stane Retail Park?
Yes, sites like Stane Retail Park are within our area, along with the rest of Mulberry Green. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Can you seal joints in cold or wet weather?
Weather matters for any external joint: rain, frost and condensation all stop sealant bonding. Indoor joints can typically carry on regardless.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. A group of buildings can go on one quote, with one point of contact across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photographs, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a visit.

Why deal with it now?
Doing joint resealing alongside other planned works can save on access. But joints already letting water in shouldn’t wait for a programme because damage continues. Urgent joints now, the rest later, is often the sensible plan. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Mulberry Green, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Pricing movement joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Call for a quote.

Do you need expansion joint sealing in Mulberry Green?
Three-sided adhesion is a common cause of early failure. Bonded on three faces, it can’t stretch evenly when the joint opens.
Look out for the following:
- Arrises breaking up along floor joints
- Expansion joints split through the centre of the bead
- Water getting into the wall through a failed joint
- Water dripping through deck or ramp joints
Large sites such as Essex County Hospital, 4.5 miles to the east of Mulberry Green, have car parks, service roads and long elevations with movement joints in brick and panels.
Questions to ask before you book
