Expansion joint sealing in Storrington, done properly
Our movement joint work takes in walls, panels, decks and floors: 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 and we name it in the quote. Site teams most often ask us about torn sealant in brick or block movement joints and previous reseals laid over old sealant, across precast concrete panel joints, podiums and floor movement joints and blockwork control joints. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Storrington is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Around places the size of Storrington, joints that need sealing tend to be in rural business units, farm buildings put to commercial use, schools and community buildings. Concrete floors and yards in these buildings move and crack like any others.
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 are clear about what is covered before work starts.

What the job involves on each surface
Cladding panel joints
Metal and composite panels shift considerably as temperatures change. The joints need a low-modulus sealant with enough movement capability, and we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Car park decks and ramps
Deck and ramp joints take tyre loads, grit and de-icing salts. We use a sealant made for wheel loads and the expected movement, phased so parts of the car park stay open.

For managing agents and facilities managers
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Storrington can form part of a wider programme.
When it isn’t the sealant
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We’ll tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Crumbling edges that would give a new bead nothing sound to grip
- Cracking or settlement that calls for an engineer’s assessment
- A joint that has to be widened or re-detailed before it can work
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will tell you honestly.

Where floor joints take the most wear near Storrington
Storrington has at least three named business or industrial parks inside a 3-mile radius. Their warehouses, yards and car parks are exactly where joints take the most punishment. At about 43 miles from central London, Storrington is within reach of the capital. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London, and their floor joints take forklift and pallet-truck traffic all day.
Another example is Rock Business Park, 2.2 miles east of Storrington, where floors and yards would be done in stages around the occupiers. In a school such as Storrington Primary School, movement joints in brick, block and hall floors tend to be forgotten until they leak. Office parks like Wiston Business Park, 2 miles to the east of Storrington, have decks, ramps and clad elevations whose joints take movement every day.

Questions we are asked in Storrington
Is a smaller place like Storrington outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Does your area include sites such as Wiston Business Park, near Storrington?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Storrington, Wiston Business Park among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Do you take on small jobs?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Send details for a fixed quote.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Do you need to see the site first?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit before quoting.
Why has the sealant in our expansion joints split?
The way it has failed normally tells us why: tearing down the centre means too much movement, and lifting off one side means poor adhesion. Broken edges are a third possibility.
From enquiry to sign-off
Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed before we move to the next.

How the quote is worked out

- Quantities, in metres or numbers

- How accessible the joints are
- The size and state of each joint
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

Doing it in-house
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
