What sealant work can’t fix

Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:

  • Waterproofing layers buried beneath the sealant
  • Mechanical expansion joint covers, cover plates or proprietary joint systems (a specialist supplier’s job)
  • Structural movement beyond what the joints were designed for (that needs a structural engineer)

Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we seal

  • Blockwork control joints
  • Cladding panel joints
  • Precast concrete panel joints
  • Podiums and floor movement joints
  • Brickwork movement joints
  • Car park decks and ramps

Upper Halling: questions and answers

Is Upper Halling too small for you to travel to?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Do you cover business parks and estates near Upper Halling, such as New Hythe Business Park?

Yes. Our area takes in Upper Halling and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as New Hythe Business Park included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

Is any job too small?

Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.

Do you take on multi-site work?

Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.

How long does movement joint sealing take?

That depends on joint lengths, widths, access and how much old sealant or filler needs removing. As a guide, it usually takes a day or so for a modest run of joints, and longer where decks, ramps or floors are done in phases.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. If you need card details for site access, tell us and we’ll confirm them with the quote.

Do you have public liability insurance?

Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.

Commercial clients in Upper Halling

As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we are straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.

Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.

Traffic, movement and joints around Upper Halling

Central London is about 25 miles from Upper Halling. Distribution warehouses and industrial estates are common around the motorway corridors that serve the capital. Rainfall across the South East, Upper Halling included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint.

Parks like New Hythe Business Park, 2.9 miles south-east of Upper Halling, combine paved areas, car parks and building elevations, each with joints that move. Schools such as Halling Primary School have movement joints in their walls and floors that are easy to overlook. Hospital campuses such as St. Catherine's Hospital, 4.2 miles north-east of Upper Halling, grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old.

Upper Halling is about 4 miles south-west of Rochester, in Medway. Anywhere in ME2, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Upper Halling is one of 54 places in Medway on our list. London is covered too, around 25 miles from Upper Halling.

Different surfaces, different methods

Podium joints

Podium decks are exposed and often trafficked. We choose a product that copes with feet, wheels and weather.

Joints between different materials

Some mixed-material joints suit a hybrid sealant. We pick the product for the materials and the movement.

What affects the price in Upper Halling

What shapes the price:

  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
  • Access and working height
  • Removal of failed or old sealant

Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

Sending details for a quote

We can often quote from photos and a few details. It helps to include:

  • Clear photos of the problem areas
  • When you need the work done
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • The type of building and who uses it

A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

From enquiry to sign-off

At the end of each section, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. If others near Upper Halling need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. Photos, joint lengths and drawings come to us, or we visit.
  2. Joint widths and expected movement are checked against what the sealant can take, and flag anything that needs an engineer.
  3. Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
  4. Edges are checked, and we tell you if any need repairing before sealing.
  5. The right sealant goes in at the right depth, bonded to the two sides only.
  6. Each area is handed back after its cure time, under our 12-month guarantee.

Preparing the site

  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Agree which areas must stay open

Ask for a quote

Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.

Why it’s worth doing now in Upper Halling

Some quotes just add sealant over the old bead. A bead over the old seal can’t bond or flex and soon lets go. We cut out the old seal and prepare the faces every time. Converted and older buildings near places like Upper Halling tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
