Expansion joint sealing for businesses in West Wickham
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
When something else is needed
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- 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)
- Movement on a scale no sealant is meant to absorb
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Expansion joint sealing in West Wickham
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. The product depends on the movement, the weather and anything that runs over it and we name it in the quote. If you’re dealing with leaks through car park deck joints onto the level below and rain penetration at brick or block movement joints, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

What affects the price in West Wickham
What shapes the price:
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- How accessible the joints are
- Which sealant the job calls for
- How much existing material needs removing
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
Before you send an enquiry
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- The product your specification calls for
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- The type of building and who uses it
- The postcode of the building
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. The first step is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us with what you know.
What we’re called out for in West Wickham
Sun, rain and frost age external movement joints. UV hardens the surface, and the sealant loses its ability to stretch.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Expansion joints filled with dirt and stones
- Sealant peeling off one face of the joint
- Torn sealant in brick or block movement joints
- Weathered movement joint sealant that no longer flexes
At places like Vulcan Way Industrial Estate, which lies south of West Wickham, joints are sealed a section at a time so operations carry on.

General trades versus a specialist
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
What happens if it’s left?
On a car park, resealing joints in phases keeps the deck open. Phased work by bay or zone lets the rest stay in use. Tell us what has to stay open and we will plan around it. Getting scaffold, permits or access booked in West Wickham takes effort, so while access is arranged it pays to renew all failing joints, not just the worst.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
What you get with us
- Specification-led, product-correct work
- Health and safety: CHAS accredited

- A Constructionline member, so easy to vet
See our cost guide and how we’re accredited.
On site: what to expect
Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. Once we are cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. In West Wickham, most buildings stay in use during the work, so zones and timings are agreed with whoever manages the building. Areas are handed back as each section is finished.
- Photos, joint lengths and drawings come to us, or we visit.
- Joint widths and expected movement are checked against what the sealant can take, and flag anything that needs an engineer.
- Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
- Edges are checked, and we tell you if any need repairing before sealing.
- 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.
Getting the site ready
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Advice
Questions we’re asked in West Wickham
Can you cope with the access rules in a London building?
Yes, most London buildings have access rules of some kind, and we plan around them. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry. We allow for the ULEZ, which covers every borough
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Bethlem Royal Hospital, something you do?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
When can you be on site?
Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll schedule the work to suit. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Can the building stay open while you work?
Usually, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use, with each area protected and signed.
Can you seal car park deck joints?
Yes, we do. These joints take wheels, salt and water, so product choice matters.
Are you insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Where floor joints take the most wear near West Wickham
Less than 3 miles from West Wickham there are at least three named estates and business parks. Their warehouses, yards and car parks are exactly where joints take the most punishment. In London, decks, bays and service yards normally have to keep running, which is why we work a few bays at a time.
Schools like Oak Lodge Primary School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly. On a site such as Chaffinch Business Park (1.8 miles north-west of West Wickham), the movement joints are in car park slabs, paving and building elevations.
