Why act early in Swanley Village
Doing joint resealing alongside other planned works can save on access. But joints already letting water in shouldn’t wait for a programme. Urgent joints now, the rest later, is often the sensible plan. Halls, stores and units around places like Swanley Village may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
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.
What you get with us
- One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland
- Fully insured, including public liability cover
- 12 months’ guarantee on every job
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

Does your area include sites such as Button Street Business Park, near Swanley Village?
Yes, sites like Button Street Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Swanley Village. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Is a smaller place like Swanley Village outside your area?
Not at all. Swanley Village is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
What will the job cost?
Each job is quoted on its own details. To get one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
What sealant do you use in movement joints?
The specification comes first, then the joint’s movement and exposure. We name the proposed product in the quote so there are no surprises.
Do you reseal car park expansion joints?
Yes. Tell us how the car park is used and which areas must stay open, and we will plan the phasing around it.
Surface by surface
Cladding panel joints
We confirm what access is in place before pricing. Close-up photographs help us judge the joints, or we visit if they don’t show enough.
Podium joints
On podiums, the joint can belong to a larger waterproofing detail. We reseal the joint where sealant is the specified fix, and tell you if the problem looks like the waterproofing below.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered 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 Swanley Village are normally planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- The first job is to check each joint: how wide it is, how it moves and why the old seal let go.
- A fixed quote follows, naming the sealant and its movement class.
- Old sealant and filler are cut out and the joint faces cleaned back to sound material, and we tell you if any edges need repairing first.
- Closed-cell backing rod is set to depth, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints.
- Primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, followed by the sealant, which is then tooled off.
- Each joint is inspected and handed over with our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
