Questions we are asked in West Hanney
Is West Hanney 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. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Abingdon Community Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
How soon can the area be used again?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
What do you charge?
That depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we will price it properly.
How long will the new sealant last?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Will you come and look before quoting?
It depends on the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, and bigger or more complex jobs typically get a visit.
Is any job too small?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
At the end of each section, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. Rural sites near West Hanney may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- 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.

- Edges are checked, and we tell you if any need repairing before sealing.

- Each area is handed back after its cure time, under our 12-month guarantee.

Related advice
Doing it in-house
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
How the job changes by surface
Cladding panel joints
We confirm what access is in place before pricing. Photos taken near the joints help us price accurately.
Brickwork and blockwork joints
Mortar snots and debris in the joint stop it working. We clear the joint fully before sealing.
Owners, agents and contractors
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. West Hanney can form part of a wider programme across Oxfordshire.
Why deal with it now?
A torn seal left alone usually gets worse. Grit and water fill the gap and the material either side breaks up. Resealing early keeps the work to sealant. Converted and older buildings near places like West Hanney tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Honest limits
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Structural movement beyond what the joints were designed for (that needs a structural engineer)
- Broken or spalled joint edges, which need repairing before any sealant goes in
- Failed waterproofing membranes on podiums, roofs or decks (a waterproofing specialist’s job)
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll say what we think.

Slabs, ramps and loading bays in West Hanney
West Hanney sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside joints in yards and car parks still have to be dry before sealing, and gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints. Less than 3 miles from West Hanney there are at least three named estates and business parks. That puts plenty of warehouse floors, service yards and car parks close by, all with joints under traffic.
A healthcare site such as Abingdon Community Hospital (5.4 miles north-east of West Hanney) depends on car parks, ramps and service yards whose joints take traffic all day. Schools such as St James Church of England Primary School have movement joints in their walls and floors that are easy to overlook. Another example is Elms Farm Business Park (2.4 miles south of West Hanney), where floors and yards would be done in stages around the occupiers.
