About our expansion joint sealing in Slough Green
We cover the full range of movement joints: vertical joints in brick and block facades, joints between precast or cladding panels, concrete slab and deck joints, ramps, podiums and internal floors. The product depends on the movement, the weather and anything that runs over it. Site teams most often ask us about torn sealant in brick or block movement joints and rain penetration at brick or block movement joints, on podiums and floor movement joints, cladding panel joints and car park decks and ramps. Searching for sealant specialists in Slough Green? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Smaller community and commercial buildings around Slough Green have their own movement joints in walls and floors. They tend to be overlooked until something leaks or cracks.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

Common questions from Slough Green clients
Is Slough Green too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like The Dene Hospital, something you do?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
Can you send site paperwork?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
Can the building stay open while you work?
Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
How much does the work cost?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. Send photographs or drawings and we’ll price it at a fixed figure.
How a job runs
We follow your site rules from the start: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we’re cleared to begin, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it. Smaller jobs around Slough Green can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- Photos, joint lengths and drawings come to us, or we visit.
- Joint widths and expected movement are checked against what the sealant can take, and flag anything that needs an engineer.
- Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
- 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.
- Areas reopen once cured, and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.

Advice
Cost factors for movement joints
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Access and working height
- The site’s rules and procedures
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.
Sending details for a quote
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- The postcode of the building
- The type of building and who uses it
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
What the job involves on each surface
Joints between different materials
Hybrid or MS polymer sealants bond to many substrates. We pick the product for the materials and the movement, and confirm it in the quote.
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 and a flexible sealant where the joint moves more.
When to call us in Slough Green
With no backing rod or bond-breaker in place, sealant grips the base of the joint too. Bonded on three faces, it can’t stretch evenly when the joint opens, which is why depth control matters.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Expansion joints filled with dirt and stones
- Previous reseals laid over old sealant
- Water dripping through deck or ramp joints
- Chipped joint edges on forklift routes
For a school such as Warden Park School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays.
What to look for in a quote
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it

Warehouse floors and decks around Slough Green
At about 33 miles from central London, Slough Green is within reach of the capital. The South East has large numbers of industrial estates and warehouses along the motorway corridors. Slough Green is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. External joints still wait for dry conditions, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint.
Estates like Crosspot Industrial Estate, 2.9 miles south-west of Slough Green, combine warehouse slabs, yards and loading bays, all with joints under wheels. For an estate such as The Dene Hospital, 3.7 miles south of Slough Green, the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time.

What sealant work can’t fix
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Crumbling edges that would give a new bead nothing sound to grip
- Leaks coming from the membrane rather than the joint seal
- Mechanical expansion joint covers, cover plates or proprietary joint systems (a specialist supplier’s job)
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Car park decks and ramps
- Brickwork movement joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Precast concrete panel joints
- Blockwork control joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
Leave it or put it right?
Patching the worst lengths of a joint can make sense short term. The remaining sealant is often close to failing too. We can price a patch and a full reseal side by side. Older rural buildings around Slough Green move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
