Traffic, movement and joints around Park Farm

Park Farm has at least three named business or industrial parks inside a 3-mile radius. Floors, loading bays and yards on sites like these are where floor and movement joints work hardest. At about 49 miles from central London, Park Farm is within reach of the capital. The South East has large numbers of industrial estates and warehouses along the motorway corridors.

Schools like Kingsnorth Church of England Primary School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly. At places like Gallagher Retail Park (1 mile north of Park Farm), joints are sealed a section at a time so operations carry on. Hospital campuses such as The One Ashford Hospital (2.4 miles north-east of Park Farm) grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old.

How we handle expansion joint sealing in Park Farm

Mastic Doctor has sealed movement joints since 2005 for contractors, facilities managers and owners. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, we’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and we carry five million pounds of public liability insurance. Each job is backed by a 12-month guarantee on the workmanship. Most enquiries involve sealant peeling off one face of the joint and debris jammed in movement joints, on podiums and floor movement joints, blockwork control joints and precast concrete panel joints. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Park Farm, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.

Small units near places like Park Farm are often converted farm buildings with new concrete floors. Saw-cut and construction joints in those floors need the right filler or sealant for the forklifts and trolleys that use them.

We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

Honest limits

A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:

  • Broken or spalled joint edges, which need repairing before any sealant goes in
  • Cracking or settlement that calls for an engineer’s assessment
  • Failed waterproofing membranes on podiums, roofs or decks (a waterproofing specialist’s job)

If you’re not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Where we work in Park Farm

  • Precast concrete panel joints
  • Brickwork movement joints
  • Blockwork control joints
  • Car park decks and ramps
  • Cladding panel joints
  • Podiums and floor movement joints

Work for main contractors and building owners

Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.

Why deal with it now?

Re-sealing with the same product that failed is often a false economy. A higher movement class, or a design change by the engineer, may be needed and we will tell you honestly. Small buildings around Park Farm suffer from failed joints as much as large ones. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.

A quote for movement joints depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Why us?

  • RAL and finish matching where the product range allows
  • CSCS-carded applicators
  • Colour options checked against the specified product
  • Public liability insurance in place

Doing it in-house

Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. 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.

Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.

Diagnose, treat, 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. What matters most for a job in Park Farm is a clear list of what needs doing, so send photos of each area. You will then get a fixed price for the work.

  1. We assess the joints on site or from photographs, noting widths and how each has failed.
  2. You receive a fixed quote stating the product and the movement it is rated for.
  3. Phasing is agreed so decks, floors or entrances can stay in use where needed.
  4. The failed seal is cut out and both joint faces cleaned back to sound material.
  5. Backing rod or bond-breaker sets the depth, primer goes on where specified, and the sealant is applied and tooled.
  6. Finished joints are inspected, the cure time confirmed and the 12-month guarantee applies.

Getting the site ready

Cost factors for movement joints

A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:

  • How much there is to seal
  • How accessible the joints are
  • The product specified
  • Location, for remote and island sites

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

What to include in your enquiry

However big the job, these details speed things up:

  • The type of building and who uses it
  • Clear photos of the problem areas
  • When you need the work done
  • The product your specification calls for

Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.

Your questions answered

Do you cover business parks and estates near Park Farm, such as Ellingham Industrial Estate?

Yes. Our area takes in Park Farm and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Ellingham Industrial Estate included. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.

Can you take on a job at a hospital such as The One Ashford Hospital?

Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.

Do you have public liability insurance?

Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.

Does the weather affect joint sealing?

Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range. Frost, rain and condensation on steel or concrete can hold up external work so external dates keep some flexibility.

When can you be on site?

Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll plan around them. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.

Can you work on car park ramps and decks?

Yes, we do. Tyre loads, grit and de-icing salts make these some of the hardest joints to keep sealed, and we’ll tell you if any edges need repairing first.

When is resealing likely to be due?

Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
