About our expansion joint sealing in Send Marsh
Width, depth and product all have to work together. Joint width must suit the movement and the movement class of the sealant while depth is limited by backing rod or, in shallow joints, a bond-breaker. For wider joints, many sealant makers recommend a width-to-depth ratio, often around 2:1, and the bead is tooled so it grips the two faces alone. The enquiries we see most involve arrises breaking up along floor joints and new sealant over old, now failing, on car park decks and ramps, precast concrete panel joints and brickwork movement joints. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Send Marsh is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Around smaller places such as Send Marsh, floor joints are often in barns and farm buildings turned into workshops, stores and offices. Joints in those slabs take vehicles, trolleys and foot traffic, and need a filler or sealant to match.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

FAQs: Send Marsh
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Woking Community Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Does your area include sites such as Merrow Business Park, near Send Marsh?
Yes. Our area takes in Send Marsh and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Merrow Business Park included. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
How long will the joint resealing take?
Allow a day or so for a modest run of joints, and longer where decks, ramps or floors are done in phases. Timings are set out in the quote, including any phasing.
Do you need to see the site first?
It depends on the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Can you seal car park deck joints?
Yes. Tell us how the car park is used and which areas must stay open and we’ll plan around them.
How long do sealant joints last?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
How do we ask for a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.

Work for main contractors and building owners
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
How the quote is worked out
What shapes the price:
- Phasing around occupants
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Any access equipment needed
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Before you send an enquiry
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- What the building is and how it’s used
- When you need the work done
To get a fixed quote, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. Our quote form is another easy route.
What sealant work can’t fix
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:
- Joints too narrow for the movement, which need redesigning by the engineer
- Damaged metal nosings or cover plates over a joint
- Failed waterproofing membranes on podiums, roofs or decks (a waterproofing specialist’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly.
Where we work in Send Marsh
- Car park decks and ramps
- Cladding panel joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
- Precast concrete panel joints
- Blockwork control joints
- Brickwork movement joints
How the job changes by surface
Podium joints
Podium decks are exposed and often trafficked. We choose a product that copes with feet, wheels and weather.
Internal floor movement joints
Warehouse and retail floors have saw-cut induced joints and construction joints. Trafficked floor joints often get a semi-rigid filler.
Signs you need expansion joint sealing in Send Marsh
Most movement joint failures come down to the joint stretching further than the sealant can take. A joint that’s too narrow for the movement, or a product with the wrong movement class, will split through the middle. The same product in the same joint tends to fail again.
Look out for the following:
- Damp inside where a wall movement joint has failed
- Hardened, cracked sealant on exposed facades
- Movement joints with split or torn sealant
- Expansion joints filled with dirt and stones
Schools like Send CofE Primary School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly.
Questions to ask before you book
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
From enquiry to sign-off
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. For a building around Send Marsh, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.
- First the joints are inspected, widths measured and the type of failure noted.
- You receive a fixed quote stating the product and the movement it is rated for.
- 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.
- Finished joints are inspected, the cure time confirmed and the 12-month guarantee applies.
Before we start on site
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
