West Green: questions and answers
Is West Green too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Fleet Community Hospital, something you do?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
What happens if it rains on the day?
Outside work depends on conditions. Indoor joints can usually carry on regardless.
Is movement joint sealing guaranteed?
It’s backed by our 12-month guarantee. If a joint we sealed fails inside the 12 months, let us know.
When can you be on site?
We’re in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.
Do you reseal car park expansion joints?
Yes. Let us know the opening hours and which levels or bays have to stay available.
Expansion joint sealing in West Green
Few joints take as much punishment as those in a car park. Tyres load the edges, and de-icing salts and water work into any gap; 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. Site teams most often ask us about water getting into the wall through a failed joint and car park joints leaking onto vehicles below, across car park decks and ramps, blockwork control joints and brickwork movement joints. A single leaking joint is often how a building in West Green first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
For a site near West Green, measurements and photographs up front mean one trip where possible. Note joint widths and the traffic that uses them, and we will take it from there.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, wherever the site is. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

What sets the cost
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Phasing around occupants
- Distance, for remote addresses
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
What we need to price the job
For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- When you need the work done
- The type of building and who uses it
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
Need a figure for a tender or a budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we will return a fixed quote you can plan around. If you have questions first, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us.
Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. If others near West Green need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- First the joints are inspected, widths measured and the type of failure noted.
- A fixed quote names the sealant we propose and its movement class.
- Phasing is agreed so decks, floors or entrances can stay in use where needed.
- 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.
- Finished joints are inspected, the cure time confirmed and the 12-month guarantee applies.
Preparing the site
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
Getting a fixed quote
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
Sealing over a failed movement joint is a common shortcut. A bead laid on top of the failed one neither grips nor flexes properly and soon lets go. Full removal and preparation is in every quote. Older rural buildings around West Green move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.

Podium joints
Podium joints often sit within a waterproofing system. We reseal the joint where sealant is the specified fix, and tell you if the problem looks like the waterproofing below.
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.
After the work
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:
- Report split or peeling joint sealant early
- Put movement joints on the planned maintenance inspection round
- Keep product details with the building records for the next reseal
- Inspect exposed joints once the cold weather has passed
Debris does more harm to joint sealant than most people realise. Stones pressed into the bead by wheels or feet can puncture it and decks and floors suffer most. Regular sweeping keeps joint lines clear.
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.
Should maintenance staff do it?
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.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Where floor joints take the most wear near West Green
Rainfall across the South East, West Green included, is lower than in many 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. At least three named trading, business or retail sites lie within about 3 miles of West Green. Sites like these are full of saw-cut floor joints, yard slabs and car park joints.
At places like Murrell Green Business Park, 0.8 miles south-west of West Green, joints are sealed a section at a time so operations carry on. In a school such as Greenfields Junior School, movement joints in brick, block and hall floors tend to be forgotten until they leak. Parks like Winkworth Business Park (to the south of West Green) combine paved areas, car parks and building elevations, each with joints that move.
