Common questions from Timsbury clients
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Romsey Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Can you work at a site such as Yokesford Hill Industrial Estate, by Timsbury?
Yes. Our area takes in Timsbury and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Yokesford Hill Industrial Estate included. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Who decides which product is used?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
In many cases, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, with one point of contact.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Do you need to see the site first?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
What we can’t put right
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:
- Movement on a scale no sealant is meant to absorb
- Mechanical expansion joint covers, cover plates or proprietary joint systems (a specialist supplier’s job)
- Leaks coming from the membrane rather than the joint seal
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Blockwork control joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Brickwork movement joints
- Podiums and floor movement joints
- Car park decks and ramps
- Precast concrete panel joints
Why it’s worth doing now in Timsbury
Combining joint work with other maintenance reduces set-up costs. But joints already letting water in shouldn’t wait for a programme because damage continues. Urgent joints now, the rest later, is often the sensible plan. Converted and older buildings near places like Timsbury tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, and the work normally takes a day or so for a modest run of joints, and longer where decks, ramps or floors are done in phases. For work around Timsbury, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We look at the joints, their width and how they’ve failed.
- Next, we fix a price and confirm the sealant we propose for the movement.
- 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.
- Backing rod goes in at the right depth, or bond-breaker tape where the joint is shallow.
- 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.
Before we start on site
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

Quoting for work in Timsbury
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- How much existing material needs removing
- Any access equipment needed
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- The product your specification calls for
- The postcode of the building
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
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.

Joints that move: notes for Timsbury
Less than 3 miles from Timsbury there are at least three named estates and business parks. Their warehouses, yards and car parks are exactly where joints take the most punishment. Timsbury sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External joints still wait for dry conditions, and gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints.
Another example is Belbins Business Park (1.6 miles south-east of Timsbury), where floors and yards would be done in stages around the occupiers. Hospital campuses such as Romsey Hospital, 2.6 miles to the south-east of Timsbury, grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old. Schools like Stanbridge Earls School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly.

For managing agents and facilities managers
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
