Around Rumbling Bridge, open joints collect water and debris, and the arrises are the next to go; we will tell you if the edges need repairing first.

When to bring in a specialist

Surface by surface
Internal floor movement joints
Warehouse and retail floors have saw-cut induced joints and construction joints. A semi-rigid filler is common in trafficked industrial floors.
Joints between different materials
Junctions between brick and render, or concrete and cladding, move independently. The product must bond to both substrates and cope with the movement.
When to call us in Rumbling Bridge
On trafficked joints, wheels and salts do the damage. Tyres and wheels press on the edges and the sealant, while de-icing salts and grit attack the seal. The product has to be suited to the traffic.
Clients normally get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Sealant peeling off one face of the joint
- Expansion joints split through the centre of the bead
- Car park joints leaking onto vehicles below
- Weathered movement joint sealant that no longer flexes
For floors and slabs around Rumbling Bridge, the product is chosen for the traffic and the movement at each joint.

What sets the cost
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Access and working height
- How much existing material needs removing
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.
Before you send an enquiry
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- Access details, including height
- Any specification or named product
- When you need the work done
- The type of building and who uses it
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.
On site: what to expect
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. For a building near Rumbling Bridge, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. We will confirm the plan with the fixed quote.
- First, the joints are inspected for width, movement and the type of failure.
- You get a fixed quote with the product and its movement capability stated.
- The failed seal is removed and both faces are cleaned until sound and dry, and we tell you if any edges need repairing first.
- Backing rod goes in at the right depth, or bond-breaker tape where the joint is shallow.
- Where the maker calls for primer, it’s applied first, then the bead goes in and is tooled to a concave finish.
- Finished joints are checked and backed by our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Flag any permit to work we will need
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Arrange parking or a loading space

After the work
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Report split or peeling joint sealant early
- Avoid parking heavy plant or pallets on joint lines
- Include every elevation and deck joint in periodic inspections
- Keep product details with the building records for the next reseal
Movement joints belong on the planned maintenance inspection list. A periodic look picks up tears and lifting before water gets in. If anything looks wrong, phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with photos.
An open joint fills with grit, and a joint full of grit can’t close. The arrises crack and break away under the load, turning a sealant job into a repair job. A sound seal keeps the joint working.
Questions we’re asked in Rumbling Bridge
What site paperwork comes with a job in Rumbling Bridge?
Whatever your site asks for, from RAMS to CSCS details, is confirmed when we quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Must our site in Rumbling Bridge stop work while the joints are done?
In most cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. We agree the sequence and timings with you before we start.
How soon can the area be used again?
We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we will ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Do you guarantee expansion joint work?
It’s backed by our 12-month guarantee. Tell us straight away if a joint we sealed gives trouble in that time.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
That depends on the product specified. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
