About our expansion joint sealing in Udny Green
Few joints take as much punishment as those in a car park. Wheel loads, grit and de-icing salts attack the seal and the concrete either side; water dripping through to the deck below is often the first sign. We reseal deck and ramp joints with a trafficable sealant chosen for the movement and the work can be phased so parts of the car park stay open. Site teams most often ask us about sealant peeling off one face of the joint and joints packed with grit and debris, across brickwork movement joints, precast concrete panel joints and car park decks and ramps. Most enquiries from Udny Green start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Travel to smaller places like Udny Green is planned so the work is done in one trip where possible. Photos, approximate widths and what uses the floor help us bring the right materials.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Leave it or put it right?
Sealing over a failed movement joint is a common shortcut. A bead over the old seal can’t bond or flex, so it fails quickly. Full removal and preparation is in every quote. Buildings that aren’t in daily use, such as halls and seasonal premises, may let water in unnoticed, giving water time to get in. Resealing early avoids that.
Pricing movement joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Ask us for a fixed quote.

From enquiry to sign-off
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. For work around Udny Green, we aim for one trip, which is why we ask for photographs and a full list first. External joints need a dry spell as well.
- We assess the joints on site or from photographs, noting widths and how each has failed.
- A fixed quote names the sealant we propose and its movement class.
- Where areas have to stay open, we agree a phased sequence before starting.
- The failed seal is cut out and both joint faces cleaned back to sound material.
- Depth is controlled with backing, the faces are primed where the maker calls for it, then the bead is laid and tooled.
- We check each joint with you, confirm the cure time and sign off under our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Confirm the product named in the specification

Aftercare for building managers
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Leave barriers in place until fresh joint sealant has cured
- Sweep decks, ramps and floors so grit doesn’t collect in the joints
- Act on the first tear or lifting edge rather than waiting
- Put movement joints on the planned maintenance inspection round
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, so the next reseal starts with the facts.
On a multi-storey car park, a failed joint usually shows up as a leak onto the deck underneath. Salty water dripping through stains soffits and lands on parked vehicles and it can affect the structure over time. Resealing early limits the damage.

Questions we’re asked in Udny Green
Will our site in Udny Green have to close for joint sealing?
Rarely. Work is phased around your operations. The phasing plan comes with the quote.
Is a hospital such as Kingseat Hospital somewhere you can work?
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 handle several sites?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, with one point of contact across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Can you seal car park deck joints?
Yes, we do. These joints take wheels, salt and water, so product choice matters, and we will tell you if any edges need repairing first.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Do you need to see the site first?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.

How the job changes by surface
Internal floor movement joints
Warehouse and retail floors have saw-cut induced joints and construction joints. Trafficked floor joints often get a semi-rigid filler and a flexible sealant where the joint moves more.
Podium joints
Podium joints often sit within a waterproofing system. We reseal the joint where sealant is the specified fix and flag it if the membrane looks like the source.
