About our expansion joint sealing in St Mary Bourne
Long runs of brick or block have movement joints built in, and they’re easy to miss until the sealant fails. Once the seal fails, rain reaches the cavity and the joint can no longer close. The old seal is cut away, backing rod goes in at depth, and a low-modulus masonry sealant is gunned and tooled with primer where the maker calls for it. The enquiries we see most involve joints packed with grit and debris and layers of sealant in a movement joint, on precast concrete panel joints, car park decks and ramps and cladding panel joints. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in St Mary Bourne from the first photos to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
In and around smaller places like St Mary Bourne, the concrete floors we see are often in converted farm buildings, small workshops and storage units. 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, wherever the site is. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

What happens if it’s left?
Leaving a failed movement joint rarely stays a small problem. Water and debris get in, the joint jams and the edges spall. Resealing early keeps the work to sealant. Converted and older buildings near places like St Mary Bourne tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Warehouse floors and decks around St Mary Bourne
St Mary Bourne sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside joints in yards and car parks still have to be dry before sealing, and gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints. At about 59 miles from central London, St Mary Bourne is within reach of the capital. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London; their floors carry heavy traffic every shift.
Sites like Andover War Memorial Hospital (to the south-west of St Mary Bourne) carry ambulances, deliveries and visitors’ cars over their road and deck joints. If you manage units on an estate such as Ardglen Industrial Estate, 2.8 miles to the south-east of St Mary Bourne, the floor joints under forklifts and pallet trucks and the slab joints in the yard are the ones to watch. In a school such as St Mary Bourne Primary School, movement joints in brick, block and hall floors tend to be forgotten until they leak.

When something else is needed
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Failed waterproofing membranes on podiums, roofs or decks (a waterproofing specialist’s job)
- Damaged metal nosings or cover plates over a joint
- Movement on a scale no sealant is meant to absorb
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Brickwork movement joints
- Car park decks and ramps
- Blockwork control joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
- Precast concrete panel joints
Looking after the joints
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Treat a small split as a warning, not a cosmetic issue
- Note which joints were done, when, and with what
- Brief car park operatives to protect joint lines during winter clearance
- Reopen bays and walkways only after the stated cure time
Every joint we seal is backed by a 12-month guarantee on workmanship. Record which product went into which joints in the building file.
On a multi-storey car park, a failed joint usually shows up as a leak onto the deck underneath. Salty water dripping through stains soffits and lands on parked vehicles and it can affect the structure over time. Resealing early limits the damage.
From enquiry to sign-off
When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, and the work typically takes a few hours to several weeks, depending on how many metres of joint there are and how much old sealant or filler needs removing. Jobs in and around smaller places like St Mary Bourne are normally planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- Photos, joint lengths and drawings come to us, or we visit.
- We compare each joint’s width with the movement and the sealant’s capability.
- 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.
- Each area is handed back after its cure time, under our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Arrange parking or a loading space

General trades versus a specialist
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
