How we handle expansion joint sealing in Shipton Bellinger
Floor movement joints in warehouses, retail and public buildings carry wheeled traffic. Unsupported edges break up under wheels. We will tell you if the edges need repairing before sealing. If you’re dealing with torn sealant in brick or block movement joints and chipped joint edges on forklift routes, we can put it right. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Shipton Bellinger it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Around smaller places such as Shipton Bellinger, 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.
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.

Floors, slabs and movement joints in Shipton Bellinger
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Even so, yard and car park joints are only sealed when they’re dry and clean, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint.
Schools such as Shipton Bellinger Primary School have movement joints in their walls and floors that are easy to overlook.

What we can’t put right
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Movement on a scale no sealant is meant to absorb
- Failed waterproofing membranes on podiums, roofs or decks (a waterproofing specialist’s job)
- Broken or spalled joint edges, which need repairing before any sealant goes in
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Car park decks and ramps
- Cladding panel joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
- Brickwork movement joints
- Blockwork control joints
- Precast concrete panel joints
When to call us in Shipton Bellinger
When the movement exceeds the sealant’s capability, the bead tears. A joint that’s too narrow for the movement, or a product with the wrong movement class, will split through the middle. Resealing like for like often fails the same way, so we check width and movement before quoting.
Look out for the following:
- Layers of sealant in a movement joint
- Arrises breaking up along floor joints
- Water dripping through deck or ramp joints
- Expansion joints split through the centre of the bead
For floors and slabs around Shipton Bellinger, the product is chosen for the traffic and the movement at each joint.
Before you book anyone
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- How the existing material will be dealt with
Why deal with it now?
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. We will flag where edges need repair before sealing. Halls, stores and units around places like Shipton Bellinger may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.

- The product specified
- How much there is to seal
- How accessible the joints are
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
How a job runs
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. The work itself normally takes anything from part of a day to a couple of weeks, depending on joint lengths, widths and access, and we clear our waste as we work. For work around Shipton Bellinger, we aim to finish in one visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- We start with photographs, approximate lengths and any drawings, visiting where needed.
- We compare each joint’s width with the movement and the sealant’s capability.
- Every joint is cleared of the failed seal and any grit packed into it.
- Any broken arrises or friable edges are flagged before work goes further.
- The right sealant goes in at the right depth, bonded to the two sides only.
- Each area is handed back after its cure time, under our 12-month guarantee.
