When something else is needed
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Cracking or settlement that calls for an engineer’s assessment
- Crumbling edges that would give a new bead nothing sound to grip
- Failed waterproofing membranes on podiums, roofs or decks (a waterproofing specialist’s job)
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Cladding panel joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
- Brickwork movement joints
- Car park decks and ramps
- Blockwork control joints
- Precast concrete panel joints
Expansion joint sealing for commercial buildings in The Village
Joint design counts for as much as the sealant itself. 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, and the bead is tooled so it grips the two faces alone. If you have joints where the bead has lost adhesion and rain penetration at brick or block movement joints, we can help, on brickwork movement joints, blockwork control joints and cladding panel joints alike. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in The Village it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Smaller community and commercial buildings around The Village have their own movement joints in walls and floors. They tend to be overlooked until something leaks or cracks.
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.

Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Inspect exposed joints once the cold weather has passed
- Keep racking legs and heavy point loads off floor joints
- Treat a small split as a warning, not a cosmetic issue
- Record the sealant used and the date in the O&M file
Movement joints belong on the planned maintenance inspection list. A periodic look picks up tears and lifting before water gets in. Should you spot a problem, you can phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and send a picture.
On a multi-storey car park, a failed joint normally shows up as a leak onto the deck underneath. That water often carries de-icing salts with it. Resealing early limits the damage.

What else we do in The Village
From enquiry to sign-off
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. For work around The Village, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We start with photographs, approximate lengths and any drawings, visiting where needed.
- 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.
- Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
- Edges are checked, and we tell you if any need repairing before sealing.
- A sealant suited to the movement and traffic is laid to depth and tooled.
- Areas reopen once cured, and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a site visit.
Advice
When to call us in The Village
Sometimes the sealant holds but the substrate breaks away. If the edge of the joint is friable, the bond fails with it, so we tell you if the edges need repairing first.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Rain penetration at brick or block movement joints
- Debris jammed in movement joints
- Weathered movement joint sealant that no longer flexes
- Sealant peeling off one face of the joint
University campuses such as Imperial College Silwood Park Campus, 2.3 miles to the south of The Village, have car parks, paved walkways and building elevations with movement joints.
What your quote should include
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- Proof of insurance
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- How the existing material will be dealt with
Where floor joints take the most wear near The Village
At about 24 miles from central London, The Village is within reach of the capital. The South East has large numbers of industrial estates and warehouses along the motorway corridors; their floors carry heavy traffic every shift. The Village sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External joints still wait for dry conditions, and where de-icing salt is spread in winter, open joints let it in.
Schools such as Windsor Girls' School have movement joints in their walls and floors that are easy to overlook. Sites like King Edward VII Hospital (2.3 miles north-east of The Village) carry ambulances, deliveries and visitors’ cars over their road and deck joints.
The Village is about 2 miles south of Windsor, in Windsor and Maidenhead. We send applicators to The Village for movement joints, handled exactly as we handle every other area. The Village is one of 60 places we cover in Windsor and Maidenhead for movement joints. Reading is covered too, around 15 miles from The Village.

Leave it or put it right?
Spot repairs can be useful on a tight budget. The remaining sealant is often close to failing too and repeated access costs add up. Where it helps, we quote both options. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like The Village. Send photographs of each area and we will quote for the lot.
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Your questions answered
Is The Village too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Does a site in The Village have to shut while its joints are sealed?
Rarely. Work is phased around your operations. Tell us which hours and entrances we can use and we will plan from there.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
What will the job cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. For yours, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with a description of the work.
Do you guarantee expansion joint work?
The 12-month guarantee applies to the workmanship. Tell us straight away if a joint we sealed gives trouble in that time.
How do I request a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. The first step only needs photographs and a postcode.
What happens if it rains on the day?
A wet joint can’t be sealed properly, so external work waits for suitable conditions. The work is simply moved to the next suitable day.
What affects the price in The Village
Quotes vary with the job. Expect it to depend on:
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Travel to remote or island sites
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Your programme or deadline
- Where the site is, with the postcode
