Is hospital work, at somewhere like Bicester Community Hospital, something you do?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Do you work in Poundon?
Yes. Sites across Poundon are covered, with one number for every area we cover.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, as long as we plan it. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
What happens if it rains on the day?
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?
Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we will plan around them. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.
How we handle expansion joint sealing in Poundon
Long runs of brick or block have movement joints built in. Failed sealant here lets rain into the wall and can leave the joint full of debris. The old seal is cut away, backing rod goes in at depth, and a low-modulus masonry sealant is gunned and tooled. We work on cladding panel joints, blockwork control joints and precast concrete panel joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are layers of sealant in a movement joint and weathered movement joint sealant that no longer flexes. Whoever orders the work in Poundon, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
In and around smaller places like Poundon, the concrete floors we see are often in converted farm buildings, small workshops and storage units. Whether it’s a farm store turned workshop or a storage unit, the joints need a product that suits the traffic.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

Expansion joint sealing around Poundon: what changes locally
Poundon is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Even so, yard and car park joints are only sealed when they’re dry and clean, and gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints. At about 51 miles from central London, Poundon is within reach of the capital. The roads out of London are lined with trade parks and distribution sheds, and their floor joints take forklift and pallet-truck traffic all day.
For buildings at a park such as Tower Hill Business Park, which lies west of Poundon, brick and panel movement joints are easy to forget until one leaks. Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Three Bridge Mill Industrial Park (1.9 miles north-east of Poundon): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time. A healthcare site such as Bicester Community Hospital (to the south-west of Poundon) depends on car parks, ramps and service yards whose joints take traffic all day.
Poundon is about 4 miles east of Bicester, in Buckinghamshire. Poundon sits inside our coverage, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. Across Buckinghamshire, 308 places are covered, including Poundon. Our Oxford page has more on work in that area (14 miles or so).

Different surfaces, different methods
Internal floor movement joints
Forklift and pallet-truck wheels break unsupported joint edges. The right filler or sealant for the traffic and movement protects them flagging broken arrises before sealing.
Cladding panel joints
Access to cladding joints is agreed before the price is fixed. Close-up photos help us judge the joints.
What affects the price in Poundon
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- The size and state of each joint
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote.
Details that help us quote
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- The type of building and who uses it
- The product your specification calls for
- The postcode of the building
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
When something else is needed
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Waterproofing layers buried beneath the sealant
- A joint that has to be widened or re-detailed before it can work
- Damaged metal nosings or cover plates over a joint
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly.

From enquiry to sign-off
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, with the work itself usually taking a day or so for a modest run of joints, and longer where decks, ramps or floors are done in phases. Rural sites near Poundon may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- First the joints are inspected, widths measured and the type of failure noted.
- A fixed quote names the sealant we propose and its movement class.
- Where areas have to stay open, we agree a phased sequence before starting.
- The failed seal is cut out and both joint faces cleaned back to sound material.
- Backing rod or bond-breaker sets the depth, primer goes on where specified, and the sealant is applied and tooled.
- We check each joint with you, confirm the cure time and sign off under our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Flag any permit to work we will need
- Point out any areas we must not close

Leave it or put it right?
A failed joint seal doesn’t mean the slab, panel or wall needs replacing. If the material either side is sound, a properly prepared reseal restores the joint. If the edges have broken up, we’ll tell you they need repairing first. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Poundon, rather than one at a time. Send photographs of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
Pricing movement joints depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you are working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.
