How we handle expansion joint sealing in Oxshott
Width, depth and product all have to work together. The joint has to be wide enough for the expected movement and the sealant’s movement capability. For wider joints, the width-to-depth ratio is often around 2:1, as the manufacturer advises. We work on blockwork control joints, precast concrete panel joints and car park decks and ramps, and what we are called in for most is new sealant over old, now failing and debris jammed in movement joints. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Oxshott, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Around Oxshott, most floor and movement joint jobs are single buildings or yards. Getting widths, depths and traffic details up front means one visit, not two.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

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 the sealant is tooled off neatly. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Oxshott need work too, visits can be combined. Tell us your site hours and we’ll plan around them.
- Photos, joint lengths and drawings come to us, or we visit.
- Joint widths and expected movement are checked against what the sealant can take, and flag anything that needs an engineer.
- Every joint is cleared of the failed seal and any grit packed into it.
- Any broken arrises or friable edges are flagged before work goes further.
- 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.
Preparing the site
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

How the quote is worked out
Before we quote, we look at:
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
What we need to price the job
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Any specification or named product
- When you need the work done
- The type of building and who uses it
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Common questions from Oxshott clients
Is a hospital such as Cobham Community Hospital and Health Centre somewhere you can work?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Oxshott, such as Silverglade Business Park?
Yes, sites like Silverglade Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Oxshott. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
How long will the new sealant last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
What happens if it rains on the day?
Weather matters for any external joint. Internal floor joints are far less affected.
Is movement joint sealing guaranteed?
The 12-month guarantee applies to the workmanship. If a joint we sealed fails inside the 12 months, let us know.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Oxshott can form part of a wider programme.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Why it’s worth doing now in Oxshott
Spot repairs can be useful on a tight budget. The remaining sealant is often close to failing too and repeated access costs add up. Where it helps, we quote both options. In a smaller place such as Oxshott, getting a contractor back for a second visit takes time, so we’d suggest renewing all the joints that are going, not just the worst.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

Surface by surface
Cladding panel joints
Metal and composite panels shift considerably as temperatures change. A sealant with the right movement class is chosen in a colour confirmed for that product.
Joints between different materials
Hybrid or MS polymer sealants bond to many substrates. The choice depends on the substrates and how much the joint moves, and confirm it in the quote.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
