Expansion joint sealing near Stonehill

Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.

Expansion joint sealing in Stonehill

Our movement joint work takes in walls, panels, decks and floors: brickwork and blockwork joints, precast and cladding panel joints, concrete joints, car park decks and ramps, podiums and floor movement joints. Every one calls for a sealant picked for its movement, exposure and traffic and we name it in the quote. Most enquiries involve weathered movement joint sealant that no longer flexes and torn sealant in brick or block movement joints, across cladding panel joints, car park decks and ramps and brickwork movement joints. Most enquiries from Stonehill start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.

Halls, schools and small commercial buildings near places like Stonehill have movement joints in brick, block and concrete too. They’re easily forgotten until water gets in or an edge breaks.

Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Signs you need expansion joint sealing in Stonehill

Weathering wears down sealant on exposed elevations and decks. UV hardens the surface, and the sealant loses its ability to stretch, so it can’t follow the movement any more.

Look out for the following:

  • Water dripping through deck or ramp joints
  • Arrises breaking up along floor joints
  • Torn sealant in brick or block movement joints
  • Sealant peeling off one face of the joint

For buildings at a park such as Chobham Business Centre, 0.9 miles south of Stonehill, brick and panel movement joints are easy to forget until one leaks.

What to look for in a quote

  • Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?

Our contractor checklist

After the work

Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:

  • Put movement joints on the planned maintenance inspection round
  • Act on the first tear or lifting edge rather than waiting
  • Keep product details with the building records for the next reseal
  • Keep scrapers and ploughs from dragging across joint sealant

Our workmanship on movement joints carries a 12-month guarantee. Keep the handover details, product and date with your O&M records.

Floor joints with failed fillers break up quickly under wheels. Broken arrises jolt trucks, loads and drivers. Sealing early protects the edges.

Joints that move: notes for Stonehill

At about 22 miles from central London, Stonehill is within reach of the capital. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London; their floors carry heavy traffic every shift. Stonehill sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, while winter salting gets into any joint left open.

Centres like Lion Retail Park (2.9 miles south of Stonehill) have mall floors and service decks whose joints carry steady traffic. For an estate such as St Peter's Hospital, which lies north-east of Stonehill, the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time.

Stonehill is about 3 miles north of Woking, in Surrey. Commercial clients in Stonehill can call on us for movement joints. 379 places across Surrey fall within our area, Stonehill among them. Sites around Reading have their own page, roughly 19 miles from Stonehill.

How the quote is worked out

A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:

  • Quantities, in metres or numbers
  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • Whether the work must be split into stages
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants

Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.

Sending details for a quote

For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:

  • Any specification or named product
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • The type of building and who uses it
  • How the joints are reached, and at what height

Pricing a project or setting a maintenance budget? We’ll quote against your scope and drawings that you can work with. For a chat about it beforehand, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over.

Common questions from Stonehill clients

Is Chobham Business Centre, near Stonehill, within your area?

Yes. Our area takes in Stonehill and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Chobham Business Centre included. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.

Is a smaller place like Stonehill outside your area?

No. Places such as Stonehill are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

How long will the joint resealing take?

That depends on joint lengths, widths, access and how much old sealant or filler needs removing. Typically it takes a short visit for a handful of joints, or several days or more for a car park deck or long runs of facade joints.

Do the joint edges need to be sound before sealing?

Sealant needs sound faces to bond to, so broken or crumbling edges have to be repaired first. We flag it at the quote stage where we can see it.

Can you follow the specification on our project?

Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.

Can the building stay open while you work?

Yes, as long as we plan it. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.

Do you have public liability insurance?

Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.

When to bring in a specialist

The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.

Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

Different surfaces, different methods

Brickwork and blockwork joints

Long brick and block elevations have movement joints at intervals. We use a sealant rated for the movement, usually low-modulus.

Car park decks and ramps

Water coming through deck joints is the usual first sign. We strip the old seal, prepare the edges and seal again, and we will tell you if any edges need repairing first.

Our process

Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. For work around Stonehill, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.

  1. We look at the joints, their width and how they’ve failed.
  2. Next, we fix a price and confirm the sealant we propose for the movement.
  3. Old sealant and filler are cut out and the joint faces cleaned back to sound material, flagging any broken edges that need repair before sealing.
  4. We control the depth with backing rod or, in shallow joints, bond-breaker tape.
  5. Primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, followed by the sealant, which is then tooled off.
  6. Finished joints are checked and backed by our 12-month guarantee.

What we need from you

  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot
  • Send your site hours and access windows
