Questions we’re asked in Warborne
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Lymington New Forest Hospital, something you do?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Our building in Warborne is near the coast: does that change the sealant?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.
Which product is best for expansion joints?
It depends on the movement, exposure and traffic. Low-modulus neutral-cure silicone suits many facade joints, while polyurethane is common in trafficked floor and deck joints, and the specification has the final say.
What do you charge?
It depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we will price it properly.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, 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.
Will you quote for a small job?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Why has the sealant in our expansion joints split?
Most often the movement is too much for the product or the joint width. That’s why we check width, depth and movement class before quoting so the same failure isn’t repeated.
When to bring in a specialist
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Owners, agents and contractors
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Warborne. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We are fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
Expansion joint sealing in Warborne: the local picture
Warborne lies within about 2 miles of the sea. Coastal yards and decks give their joints salt and wet weather to deal with, not just wheels, and edges left open tend to break up faster. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, while winter salting gets into any joint left open.
A healthcare site such as Lymington New Forest Hospital (to the south-west of Warborne) depends on car parks, ramps and service yards whose joints take traffic all day. In a school such as Southlands School, movement joints in brick, block and hall floors tend to be forgotten until they leak.
Warborne is about 1 mile north of Lymington, in Hampshire. Any commercial site in Warborne is covered, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. 723 places across Hampshire fall within our area, Warborne among them. Our Southampton page has more on work in that area (12 miles or so).

Why deal with it now?
Resealing is usually the answer, not replacing the element. If the material either side is sound, a properly prepared reseal restores the joint. If the edges have broken up, we will tell you they need repairing first. Around Warborne, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

What sealant work can’t fix
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Mechanical expansion joint covers, cover plates or proprietary joint systems (a specialist supplier’s job)
- Changing the joint layout or spacing of a structure
- Leaks coming from the membrane rather than the joint seal
If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will give you a straight answer.
