About our expansion joint sealing in North Boarhunt
Width, depth and product all have to work together. Joint width must suit the movement and the movement class of the sealant. For wider joints, many sealant makers recommend a width-to-depth ratio, often around 2:1 and the bead bonds to the sides, never the back. If you have new sealant over old, now failing and joints where the bead has lost adhesion, we can put it right. Whoever orders the work in North Boarhunt, the brief is usually the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Jobs around smaller places like North Boarhunt are planned so the whole job is done in one visit, with the right materials on hand. Tell us the joint widths if you can, and what drives or walks over them.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

North Boarhunt: questions and answers
Can you work at a site such as Spurlings Industrial Estate, by North Boarhunt?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around North Boarhunt, Spurlings Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Knowle Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
Do you cover North Boarhunt?
Yes. North Boarhunt falls within our area, and the simplest way to start is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.
When something else is needed
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Broken or spalled joint edges, which need repairing before any sealant goes in
- Damaged metal nosings or cover plates over a joint
- Failed waterproofing membranes on podiums, roofs or decks (a waterproofing specialist’s job)
If you’re not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

From enquiry to sign-off
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. If others near North Boarhunt need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- Photos, joint lengths and drawings come to us, or we visit.
- We compare each joint’s width with the movement and the sealant’s capability.
- Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
- Edges are checked, and we tell you if any need repairing before sealing.
- A sealant suited to the movement and traffic is laid to depth and tooled.
- Each area is handed back after its cure time, under our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
Quotes
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.

Building owners, agents and FMs in North Boarhunt
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Cost factors for movement joints
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we look at:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- The total length or number of joints
- How much existing material needs removing
- Joint width, depth and condition
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.
Before you send an enquiry
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The product your specification calls for
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with what you know.
Why deal with it now?
Patching the worst lengths of a joint can make sense short term. But if the rest of the run is the same age and product, it’s usually not far behind. Where it helps, we quote both options. Older rural buildings around North Boarhunt move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Why us?
- Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product
- Colour options checked against the specified product
- Work to your specification and the manufacturer’s guidance

When to call us in North Boarhunt
Three-sided adhesion is a common cause of early failure. Bonded on three faces, it can’t stretch evenly when the joint opens so backing is set before sealing.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Leaks through car park deck joints onto the level below
- Torn sealant in brick or block movement joints
- Sealant pulling off the joint face
- New sealant over old, now failing
Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Fareham Industrial Park (2.6 miles south-west of North Boarhunt): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time.
Questions to ask before you book
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
