When to call us in Westfield
Sun, rain and frost age external movement joints. UV hardens the surface, and the sealant loses its ability to stretch.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Sealant peeling off one face of the joint
- Chipped joint edges on forklift routes
- Car park joints leaking onto vehicles below
- Layers of sealant in a movement joint
Across sites such as Hastings Retail Park (1.7 miles south-west of Westfield), floor and movement joints can be sealed in phases so units keep working.

Expansion joint sealing in Westfield, done properly
Joints in car park decks and ramps are among the hardest-working in any building. 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, phasing bays so the car park can stay in use. We work on precast concrete panel joints, blockwork control joints and cladding panel joints, and what we’re called in for most is expansion joints split through the centre of the bead and expansion joints filled with dirt and stones. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Westfield it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
For a site near Westfield, measurements and photographs up front mean one trip where possible. Tell us the joint widths if you can, and what drives or walks over them.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Where floor joints take the most wear near Westfield
At about 50 miles from central London, Westfield is within reach of the capital. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London. Westfield sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, yard and car park joints are only sealed when they’re dry and clean, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint.
On a site such as Wheel Farm Business Park, less than half a mile to the west of Westfield, the movement joints are in car park slabs, paving and building elevations. In a school such as Westfield School, movement joints in brick, block and hall floors tend to be forgotten until they leak.
Westfield is about 3 miles north of Hastings, in East Sussex. We cover commercial sites throughout Westfield, whether it’s a single job or part of a planned programme. Across East Sussex, 308 places are covered, including Westfield. We also cover Brighton, some 31 miles away.

Your questions answered
Do you cover business parks and estates near Westfield, such as Wheel Farm Business Park?
Yes, sites like Wheel Farm Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Westfield. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Is Westfield off your patch?
Not at all. Westfield is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Why has the sealant in our expansion joints split?
Adhesion failure, cohesive failure, edge breakdown and UV ageing account for most cases. We diagnose which one it is before resealing.
What hours do you work?
Mention the site’s hours and 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.
How long will the joint resealing take?
The metres of joint, the access and the amount of removal decide it. As a guide, it usually takes a short visit for a handful of joints, or several days or more for a car park deck or long runs of facade joints.
Do you take on small jobs?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Is colour matching possible?
That depends on the product. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
Doing it in-house
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 you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Westfield
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first.
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Westfield can sit alongside others in a wider programme.
Aftercare for building managers
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Report split or peeling joint sealant early
- Include every elevation and deck joint in periodic inspections
- Keep stones and debris out of open joint lines
- Keep product details with the building records for the next reseal
Debris does more harm to joint sealant than most people realise. Stones pressed into the bead by wheels or feet can puncture it. A routine sweep is the simplest protection.
Floor joints with failed fillers break up quickly under wheels. Broken arrises jolt trucks, loads and drivers and the broken length grows with every pass. Keeping the filler or sealant sound protects the floor.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself typically takes anything from part of a day to a couple of weeks, depending on joint lengths, widths and access, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Rural sites near Westfield may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- We start with photographs, approximate lengths and any drawings, visiting where needed.
- Joint widths and expected movement are checked against what the sealant can take and tell you if the design looks wrong for the movement.
- 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.
- Areas reopen once cured, and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Let us know about inductions and permits
