Common questions from Rush Green clients
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Spire Thames Valley Hospital, something you do?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Rush Green off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we are a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
What happens if it rains on the day?
A wet joint can’t be sealed properly so we’d rather rearrange than seal in the rain. The work is simply moved to the next suitable day.
Do you guarantee expansion joint work?
Each job is backed by a 12-month guarantee on the workmanship. Damage from later works or traffic loads outside the joint’s design isn’t a workmanship fault.
Can you seal car park deck joints?
Yes. These joints take wheels, salt and water, so product choice matters and broken edges are flagged before sealing.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Looking after the joints
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Put movement joints on the planned maintenance inspection round
- Check joints after long freezing spells
- Keep racking legs and heavy point loads off floor joints
- Note which joints were done, when, and with what
Every joint we seal is backed by a 12-month guarantee on workmanship. Record which product went into which joints in the building file.
A failed deck joint lets water straight through to the level below. That water often carries de-icing salts with it, which is bad news for the concrete and the people parking below. Sealing the joint promptly stops it at source.
Do you need expansion joint sealing in Rush Green?
On trafficked joints, wheels and salts do the damage. Wheel loads stress the sealant and the arrises, while grit and salts work into any gap. A sealant that isn’t trafficable won’t last there.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Brittle, chalky sealant on external joints
- Joints where the bead has lost adhesion
- Spalled or broken joint edges in floors and decks
- Damp inside where a wall movement joint has failed
Schools like Denham Village School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly.

Different surfaces, different methods
Internal floor movement joints
Floor joints include saw-cut joints and construction joints. Trafficked floor joints often get a semi-rigid filler, with a flexible sealant where movement is larger.
Joints between different materials
Different materials meeting at a joint rarely move in step. The product must bond to both substrates and cope with the movement priming where the maker calls for it.
What we can’t put right
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:
- Structural movement beyond what the joints were designed for (that needs a structural engineer)
- Concrete or masonry repairs along the arrises
- Joints too narrow for the movement, which need redesigning by the engineer

Where floor joints take the most wear near Rush Green

Rush Green lies roughly 19 miles out from central London. The South East has large numbers of industrial estates and warehouses along the motorway corridors.
Parks like Uxbridge Business Park (to the east of Rush Green) combine paved areas, car parks and building elevations, each with joints that move. For an estate such as Spire Thames Valley Hospital, 2.7 miles south-west of Rush Green, the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time.
