Expansion joint sealing in Rookley Green
Internal floor joints take trolleys, pallet trucks and forklifts. Without a sound filler, joint edges chip and spall under load. We will tell you if the edges need repairing before sealing. We work on cladding panel joints, brickwork movement joints and precast concrete panel joints, and what we’re called in for most is sealant pulling off the joint face and car park joints leaking onto vehicles below.

Why it’s worth doing now in Rookley Green
Doing joint resealing alongside other planned works can save on access. Leaking joints need sealing now because damage continues. We can split the scope into urgent and planned. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Rookley Green. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

How the quote is worked out
To price the job, we consider:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Joint width, depth and condition
- The total length or number of joints
- Working within restricted access windows
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
What we need to price the job
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Any dates the work must fit around
For a fixed quote, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. Our quote form is another easy route.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work typically takes a day or so for a modest run of joints, and longer where decks, ramps or floors are done in phases, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For work around Rookley Green, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- We start with photos, approximate lengths and any drawings, visiting where needed.
- Joint widths and expected movement are checked against what the sealant can take.
- Every joint is cleared of the failed seal and any grit packed into it.
- Edges are checked, and we tell you if any need repairing before sealing.
- 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.
Before we start on site
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

Different surfaces, different methods
Cladding panel joints
We confirm what access is in place before pricing. Photos taken near the joints help us price accurately.
Internal floor movement joints
Floor joints include saw-cut joints and construction joints. A semi-rigid filler is common in trafficked industrial floors, with a flexible sealant where movement is larger.
When to bring in a specialist
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, 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.
Your questions answered
Is Rookley Green too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you work at a site such as New Barn Industrial Park, by Rookley Green?
Yes, sites like New Barn Industrial Park are within our area, along with the rest of Rookley Green. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Do you need to see the site first?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
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’ll confirm with the quote.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, with one point of contact.
Who decides which product is used?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
