Expansion joint sealing in Walton Court
Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What sets the cost
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- The size and state of each joint
- Access and working height
- How much there is to seal
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
What we need to price the job
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- The postcode of the building
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- When you need the work done
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
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’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Expansion joint sealing for commercial buildings in Walton Court
For movement joints in Walton Court, photos and approximate lengths are the best start. Send them through our quote form, and we’ll arrange a site visit if needed before issuing a fixed quote. To discuss the joints first, phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form. Site teams most often ask us about joints packed with grit and debris and car park joints leaking onto vehicles below, on blockwork control joints, podiums and floor movement joints and car park decks and ramps. Most enquiries from Walton Court start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Rural business units around smaller places such as Walton Court often have new slabs laid inside older buildings. Saw-cut and construction joints in those floors need the right filler or sealant for the forklifts and trolleys that use them.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

Aftercare for building managers
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Note which joints were done, when, and with what
- Leave barriers in place until fresh joint sealant has cured
- Plan racking layouts so feet don’t land on a joint
- Put movement joints on the planned maintenance inspection round
Grit is the slow enemy of a joint seal. Stones pressed into the bead by wheels or feet can puncture it and decks and floors suffer most. A routine sweep is the simplest protection.
A failed deck joint lets water straight through to the level below. That water often carries de-icing salts with it. Resealing early limits the damage.

Different surfaces, different methods
Podium joints
Podiums take foot traffic, planters and weather. We choose a product that copes with feet, wheels and weather.
Car park decks and ramps
Car park joints are some of the hardest-working joints in any building. A trafficable sealant suited to the movement goes in.
What we’re called out for in Walton Court
Three-sided adhesion is a common cause of early failure. Bonded on three faces, it can’t stretch evenly when the joint opens so backing is set before sealing.
Most enquiries start with something like this:
- Water getting into the wall through a failed joint
- Layers of sealant in a movement joint
- Debris jammed in movement joints
- Water dripping through deck or ramp joints
Campuses like University Campus Aylesbury Vale (1.2 miles north-east of Walton Court) mix old and new buildings, with movement joints wherever they meet.

Common questions from Walton Court clients
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Stoke Mandeville Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Will you take on work at estates like Fountain Business Centre, close to Walton Court?
Yes, sites like Fountain Business Centre are within our area, along with the rest of Walton Court. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
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 short visit for a handful of joints, or several days or more for a car park deck or long runs of facade joints.
Which product is best for expansion joints?
We choose a sealant with a movement capability that suits the joint. Where two different materials meet, a hybrid sealant can be the better choice.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.
What if the joint edges are damaged?
The edges have to be sound. Where they’ve broken up, we will tell you they need repairing first.
How a job runs
Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Walton Court need work too, visits can be combined. Tell us your site hours and we will plan around them.
- We look at the joints, their width and how they’ve failed.
- You get a fixed quote with the product and its movement capability stated.
- 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.
- Where the maker calls for primer, it’s applied first, then the bead goes in and is tooled to a concave finish.
- We check every joint before sign-off, and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Agree which areas must stay open

When it isn’t the sealant

- Mechanical expansion joint covers, cover plates or proprietary joint systems (a specialist supplier’s job)
- Concrete or masonry repairs along the arrises
- Changing the joint layout or spacing of a structure
