Expansion joint sealing in Stanwell Moor, done properly

Internal floor joints take trolleys, pallet trucks and forklifts. Without a sound filler, joint edges chip and spall under load. We’ll tell you if the edges need repairing before sealing and phasing can keep areas working. If you are dealing with previous reseals laid over old sealant and torn sealant in brick or block movement joints, we can help. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Stanwell Moor it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

Smaller community and commercial buildings around Stanwell Moor have their own movement joints in walls and floors. They tend to be overlooked until something leaks or cracks.

Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Looking after the joints

Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:

  • Leave barriers in place until fresh joint sealant has cured
  • Inspect movement joints alongside other routine building checks
  • Record the sealant used and the date in the O&M file
  • Clear dirt from joint lines during routine cleaning

Keep wheels, feet and water off new joints until the sealant has cured. The time varies with product, conditions and joint depth, and we confirm it for each area before we leave. Barriers left in place until then protect the finish.

When one joint fails, others of the same age are rarely far behind. Inspecting the whole run is worth the effort, so the work can be planned rather than rushed. We can suggest an order, worst joints first.

What we can’t put right

Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:

  • Crumbling edges that would give a new bead nothing sound to grip
  • Waterproofing layers buried beneath the sealant
  • Proprietary pre-formed expansion joint systems

If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Where we work in Stanwell Moor

  • Brickwork movement joints
  • Precast concrete panel joints
  • Cladding panel joints
  • Blockwork control joints
  • Podiums and floor movement joints
  • Car park decks and ramps

Should maintenance staff do it?

What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.

Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.

Expansion joint sealing around Stanwell Moor: points for this area

Stanwell Moor is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Outside joints in yards and car parks still have to be dry before sealing, and where de-icing salt is spread in winter, open joints let it in. Less than 3 miles from Stanwell Moor there are at least three named estates and business parks. Floors, loading bays and yards on sites like these are where floor and movement joints work hardest.

Schools like Town Farm Primary School & Nursery often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly. Across sites such as Lakeside Industrial Estate, 1.7 miles north of Stanwell Moor, floor and movement joints can be sealed in phases so units keep working.

Stanwell Moor is about 2 miles north of Staines-upon-Thames, in Surrey. We cover commercial sites throughout Stanwell Moor, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. Stanwell Moor is one of 379 places in Surrey on our list for movement joints. For work in that direction, see our London page.

Our process

We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Smaller jobs around Stanwell Moor can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.

  1. Photos, joint lengths and drawings come to us, or we visit.
  2. We compare each joint’s width with the movement and the sealant’s capability and tell you if the design looks wrong for the movement.
  3. Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
  4. Any broken arrises or friable edges are flagged before work goes further.
  5. A sealant suited to the movement and traffic is laid to depth and tooled.
  6. Areas reopen once cured, and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.

When to call us in Stanwell Moor

Some joints were never sealed with the right product. A stiff or general-purpose sealant across a joint with large movement won’t cope. Movement capability is set out in BS EN ISO 11600, and specifications often refer to it.

Things that typically lead to an enquiry:

  • Rain penetration at brick or block movement joints
  • Expansion joints split through the centre of the bead
  • Car park joints leaking onto vehicles below
  • Debris jammed in movement joints

For estates staff at a university like Royal Holloway University, 3.8 miles to the south-west of Stanwell Moor, building and paving joints are part of the planned maintenance list.

Before you book anyone

  • Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
  • How the existing material will be dealt with
  • Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
  • How joint depth will be controlled

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

Questions about Stanwell Moor

Will you take on work at estates like Skyport Industrial Estate, close to Stanwell Moor?

Yes, sites like Skyport Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Stanwell Moor. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.

Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Ashford Hospital?

Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.

Will you quote for a small job?

We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.

What causes movement joint sealant to fail?

Normally the joint is moving more than the sealant can take. That’s why we check width, depth and movement class before quoting, rather than replacing like for like.

Do you guarantee expansion joint work?

Our workmanship on movement joints carries a 12-month guarantee. 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. Deck and ramp joints are resealed with a trafficable sealant chosen for the movement, and phased work can be planned so parts of the car park stay in use.

What will the job cost?

That depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a quote and we will price it properly.

Leave it or put it right?

A like-for-like reseal of a joint that keeps splitting rarely lasts. If the joint is too narrow or the product wrong for the movement, it needs a different approach and we’ll tell you honestly. Older rural buildings around Stanwell Moor move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.

Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.
