Maintenance after handover
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Note which joints were done, when, and with what
- Keep scrapers and ploughs from dragging across joint sealant
- Plan racking layouts so feet don’t land on a joint
- Sweep decks, ramps and floors so grit doesn’t collect in the joints
Our workmanship on movement joints carries a 12-month guarantee. Keep the handover details, product and date with your O&M records.
Joints sealed at the same time generally fail around the same time. Inspecting the whole run is worth the effort, so the work can be planned rather than rushed. We will tell you which movement joints need doing now and which can wait.
How we handle expansion joint sealing in Stuckton
Width, depth and product all have to work together. Joint width must suit the movement and the movement class of the sealant while depth is limited by backing rod or, in shallow joints, a bond-breaker. For wider joints, the width-to-depth ratio is often around 2:1, as the manufacturer advises. If you are dealing with torn sealant in brick or block movement joints and spalled or broken joint edges in floors and decks, we can put it right. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Stuckton? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Smaller community and commercial buildings around Stuckton have their own movement joints in walls and floors. They’re easily forgotten until water gets in or an edge breaks.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

What sets the cost
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- How much there is to seal
- Phasing around occupants
- Removal of failed or old sealant
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
What we need to price the job
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Your programme or deadline
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- The postcode of the building
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
When something else is needed
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Movement on a scale no sealant is meant to absorb
- Joints too narrow for the movement, which need redesigning by the engineer
- Mechanical expansion joint covers, cover plates or proprietary joint systems (a specialist supplier’s job)
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How a job runs
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work usually takes anything from part of a day to a couple of weeks, depending on joint lengths, widths and access, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Rural sites near Stuckton may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we’ll build it into the plan.
- The first job is to check each joint: how wide it is, how it moves and why the old seal let go.
- Next, we fix a price and confirm the sealant we propose for the movement.
- We strip out the old seal and prepare the faces, flagging any broken edges that need repair before sealing.
- Backing rod goes in at the right depth, or bond-breaker tape where the joint is shallow.
- Where the maker calls for primer, it’s applied first, then the bead goes in and is tooled to a concave finish.
- Each joint is inspected and handed over with our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Make sure the joints can be reached

Advice
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.
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Questions we are asked in Stuckton
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Fordingbridge Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Will you take on work at estates like Arch Farm Industrial Estate, close to Stuckton?
Yes, sites like Arch Farm Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Stuckton. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators.
Is any job too small?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Send details for a fixed quote.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.
Do you need to see the site first?
Many jobs can be quoted from photographs, drawings or a joint schedule. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit.
Common problems we fix in Stuckton
When the movement exceeds the sealant’s capability, the bead tears. A joint that’s too narrow for the movement, or a product with the wrong movement class, will split through the middle. Resealing like for like often fails the same way, so we check width and movement before quoting.
Look out for the following:
- Sealant peeling off one face of the joint
- Car park joints leaking onto vehicles below
- Damp inside where a wall movement joint has failed
- Expansion joints split through the centre of the bead
Warehouse floors on estates like Arch Farm Industrial Estate, 1.5 miles north-west of Stuckton, carry pallet trucks and forklifts over every saw-cut joint.
What to look for in a quote
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- How they’ll work around occupants
- Who will actually carry out the work
Where floor joints take the most wear near Stuckton
Stuckton has at least three named business or industrial parks inside a 3-mile radius. Sites like these are full of saw-cut floor joints, yard slabs and car park joints. Stuckton sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, yard and car park joints are only sealed when they’re dry and clean, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint.
For a school such as Hyde Church of England Primary School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays. Across sites such as Fordingbridge Business Park, 1.6 miles west of Stuckton, floor and movement joints can be sealed in phases so units keep working.
