About our expansion joint sealing in Old Heathfield
Our movement joint work takes in walls, panels, decks and floors: vertical joints in brick and block facades, joints between precast or cladding panels, concrete slab and deck joints, ramps, podiums and internal floors. The product depends on the movement, the weather and anything that runs over it and we name it in the quote. Most enquiries involve hardened, cracked sealant on exposed facades and rain penetration at brick or block movement joints, on cladding panel joints, car park decks and ramps and podiums and floor movement joints. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Old Heathfield tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Smaller community and commercial buildings around Old Heathfield have their own movement joints in walls and floors. They’re easily forgotten until water gets in or an edge breaks.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Maintenance after handover
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Leave barriers in place until fresh joint sealant has cured
- Keep product details with the building records for the next reseal
- Clear dirt from joint lines during routine cleaning
- Plan racking layouts so feet don’t land on a joint
Fresh joint sealant needs its full cure time before it takes traffic or water. The time varies with product, conditions and joint depth, and we confirm it for each area before we leave. Keeping the area coned off until then avoids tyre marks and damage.
Joints sealed at the same time generally fail around the same time. Inspecting the whole run is worth the effort so you can prioritise and budget. We can suggest an order, worst joints first.

Advice
Doing it in-house
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
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.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Old Heathfield
Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
When it isn’t the sealant
Honesty saves time and money. New sealant won’t cure:
- Movement on a scale no sealant is meant to absorb
- Waterproofing layers buried beneath the sealant
- Proprietary pre-formed expansion joint systems
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we will say what we think.

Questions we are asked in Old Heathfield
Does your area include sites such as Ghyll Road Industrial Estate, near Old Heathfield?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Old Heathfield, Ghyll Road Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is Old Heathfield off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
What sealant do you use in movement joints?
The right product depends on the joint. Facades often take a low-modulus silicone; floors and decks normally need a polyurethane.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, and you deal with one contact throughout across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
Does the weather affect joint sealing?
Weather matters for any external joint because a damp or frozen joint won’t take a proper bond. Indoor joints can normally carry on regardless.
What do you charge?
It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a fixed quote.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Each site asks for different documents, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
