About our expansion joint sealing in West Ealing
Our movement joint work takes in walls, panels, decks and floors: brickwork and blockwork joints, precast and cladding panel joints, concrete joints, car park decks and ramps, podiums and floor movement joints. Every one calls for a sealant picked for its movement, exposure and traffic and we name it in the quote. Most enquiries involve leaks through car park deck joints onto the level below and damp inside where a wall movement joint has failed, across cladding panel joints, brickwork movement joints and car park decks and ramps. Whoever orders the work in West Ealing, the brief is normally the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Distribution and trade units on London’s edges, and deck car parks across the city, hold most of its floor and slab joints. In West Ealing, as everywhere in London, access, loading and the ULEZ all come into the plan.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application.

Do you need expansion joint sealing in West Ealing?
Car park decks and floors face loads that walls never see. Wheel loads stress the sealant and the arrises, while grit and salts work into any gap. A sealant that isn’t trafficable won’t last there.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Rain penetration at brick or block movement joints
- Joints where the bead has lost adhesion
- Car park joints leaking onto vehicles below
- Previous reseals laid over old sealant
A campus such as University of West London (to the east of West Ealing) has long runs of movement joint in its buildings, decks and paving.

What we can’t put right
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Leaks coming from the membrane rather than the joint seal
- Structural movement beyond what the joints were designed for (that needs a structural engineer)
- Mechanical expansion joint covers, cover plates or proprietary joint systems (a specialist supplier’s job)
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Work for main contractors and building owners
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites around West Ealing. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Different surfaces, different methods
Cladding panel joints
Cladding panels move more than masonry as they heat and cool. The joints need a low-modulus sealant with enough movement capability in a colour confirmed for that product.
Brickwork and blockwork joints
Brick and block edges need careful preparation. We clean them back to sound material and prime where the manufacturer specifies, then seal and tool the joint.
Traffic, movement and joints around West Ealing
At least three named trading, business or retail sites lie within about 3 miles of West Ealing. That puts plenty of warehouse floors, service yards and car parks close by, all with joints under traffic. London car parks, loading bays and podium decks often can’t close for long, which is why we work a few bays at a time.

What happens if it’s left?
Resealing is normally the answer, not replacing the element. If the material either side is sound, a properly prepared reseal restores the joint. We will flag where edges need repair before sealing. Failed sealant in a building in West Ealing can quickly affect neighbours, tenants or the floor below. Putting it right early is less disruptive than dealing with the consequences.

Your questions answered
Does your area include sites such as Chadha Industrial Estate, near West Ealing?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around West Ealing, Chadha Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. To start, just phone 01277 525 020 or email us with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is a hospital such as Ealing Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Do you use silicone or polyurethane in movement joints?
Whatever suits the joint and the specification. The quote states the sealant and its movement class, so you know what’s going in.
How do I request a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Include photographs or drawings if you have them.
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 your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, let us know and we will send them with the quote.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
We follow your site rules from the start: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we’re cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you, and each area is checked before we leave it. In West Ealing, most buildings stay in use during the work, so zones and timings are agreed with whoever manages the building. Phased work keeps the rest of the building in use.
- Photos, joint lengths and drawings come to us, or we visit.
- We compare each joint’s width with the movement and the sealant’s capability and tell you if the design looks wrong for the movement.
- Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
- Any broken arrises or friable edges are flagged before work goes further.
- A sealant suited to the movement and traffic is laid to depth and tooled.
- Each area is handed back after its cure time, under our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Flag any permit to work we will need
