Common questions from Tottenham Hale clients
Can you cope with the access rules in a London building?
Yes, we plan every London job around the building’s own access rules. The building manager’s rules go straight into our method. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
Do you cover business parks and estates near Tottenham Hale, such as Tottenham Hale Retail Park?
Yes. We cover Tottenham Hale and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Tottenham Hale Retail Park. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Who decides which product is used?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Which product is best for expansion joints?
Movement capability matters most. Hybrid or MS polymer products suit some mixed-material joints.
What guarantee do you give on joint sealing?
Our workmanship on movement joints carries a 12-month guarantee. Damage from later works or traffic loads outside the joint’s design isn’t a workmanship fault.
Is colour matching possible?
That depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
There are four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step only needs photographs and a postcode.

Cost factors for movement joints
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- How much existing material needs removing
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- The total length or number of joints
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.
What to include in your enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Specification clauses that apply
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Access details, including height
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we will put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Why deal with it now?
A torn seal left alone typically gets worse. Grit and water fill the gap and the material either side breaks up and the job grows to repairs as well as sealing. Resealing early keeps the work to sealant. Access in London is hard enough to arrange once, so while access is arranged it pays to renew all failing joints, not just the worst.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Why us?
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
- A fixed quote before work starts
- Health and safety: CHAS accredited
- 12-month guarantee on workmanship

Maintenance after handover
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Keep traffic off new joints until the cure time is up
- Plan racking layouts so feet don’t land on a joint
- Report split or peeling joint sealant early
- Sweep decks, ramps and floors so grit doesn’t collect in the joints
Every joint we seal is backed by a 12-month guarantee on workmanship. Keep the handover details, product and date with your O&M records.
Once debris packs a failed joint, the structure has nowhere to expand. The edges then take the pressure and start to spall. Keeping the seal sound avoids all of that.
How a job runs
Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Planning a London job such as one in Tottenham Hale starts with access: booked loading, goods lifts, the building’s permit system and a spot to keep materials. Give us the hours we can be on site and we’ll schedule to suit.
- First, the joints are inspected for width, movement and the type of failure.
- You get a fixed quote with the product and its movement capability stated.
- 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.
- After any primer the maker requires, the bead is applied and tooled so it grips two sides only.
- Finished joints are checked and backed by our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Flag any permit to work we will need

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
Related advice
General trades versus a specialist
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.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Movement on a scale no sealant is meant to absorb
- Joints too narrow for the movement, which need redesigning by the engineer
- Waterproofing layers buried beneath the sealant
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will give you a straight answer.
