When to call us in Peel Common
The edges of the material can fail rather than the sealant. Weak or crumbling concrete, brick or render edges give the sealant nothing sound to grip so edge repair has to come before resealing.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Leaks through car park deck joints onto the level below
- Movement joints with split or torn sealant
- Brittle, chalky sealant on external joints
- Chipped joint edges on forklift routes
For a school such as Peel Common Junior School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays.
Before you book anyone
- What site paperwork they can supply
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
Expansion joint sealing in Peel Common
A movement joint only works while its seal does. Once it fails, water, grit and debris get in, the joint can’t close properly and its edges begin to crumble. Dealt with early, it stays a sealant job rather than a concrete or masonry repair. If you have weathered movement joint sealant that no longer flexes and sealant peeling off one face of the joint, we can help. Searching for sealant specialists in Peel Common? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.
Jobs around smaller places like Peel Common are planned so the whole job is done in one visit, with the right materials on hand. Note joint widths and the traffic that uses them, and we’ll take it from there.

Work for main contractors and building owners
We work for building owners and managing agents on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios. One quote can cover more than one site, which keeps the paperwork simple.
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
Cost factors for movement joints
Quotes vary with the job. Expect it to depend on:
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Any access equipment needed
Pricing movement joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you are working to. Call for a quote.
What we need to price the job
There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Access details, including height
- Any specification or named product
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
How a job runs
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work normally takes anything from part of a day to a couple of weeks, depending on joint lengths, widths and access. For work around Peel Common, we aim to finish in one visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- The first job is to check each joint: how wide it is, how it moves and why the old seal let go.
- A fixed quote follows, naming the sealant and its movement class.
- We strip out the old seal and prepare the faces, and we tell you if any edges need repairing first.
- We control the depth with backing rod or, in shallow joints, bond-breaker tape.
- After any primer the maker requires, the bead is applied and tooled so it grips two sides only.
- Each joint is inspected and handed over with our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Point out any areas we must not close

Common questions from Peel Common clients
Would you work within a site like Gosport War Memorial Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Is Peel Common too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Is any job too small?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, with one point of contact across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
How do we ask for a quote?
There are four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step only needs photos and a postcode.
How long does movement joint sealing take?
It normally takes anything from part of a day to a couple of weeks, depending on joint lengths, widths and access. We will confirm when each area can be used again.
How long before the joints can be used?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.
Surface by surface
Joints between different materials
Some mixed-material joints suit a hybrid sealant. We pick the product for the materials and the movement, and confirm it in the quote.
Cladding panel joints
Metal and composite panels shift considerably as temperatures change. The joints need a low-modulus sealant with enough movement capability in a colour confirmed for that product.
