About our expansion joint sealing in Woolage Green
Every structure moves a little, all the time: they expand in the heat, shrink as they dry, and shift under load. Expansion and movement joints are built in so the structure can move without cracking, and the sealant in them keeps water and debris out. Mastic Doctor reseals movement joints in brickwork, blockwork, concrete, cladding and floors for buildings in Woolage Green. We work on precast concrete panel joints, podiums and floor movement joints and cladding panel joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are previous reseals laid over old sealant and brittle, chalky sealant on external joints. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Woolage Green, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Jobs around smaller places like Woolage Green are planned so the whole job is done in one visit. Tell us the joint widths if you can, and what drives or walks over them.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Kent. If an installation problem shows up, call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will arrange a return visit.

Looking after the joints
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Inspect exposed joints once the cold weather has passed
- Keep traffic off new joints until the cure time is up
- Keep scrapers and ploughs from dragging across joint sealant
- Put movement joints on the planned maintenance inspection round
On car parks, winter clearance can damage deck joint sealant. Lifting the blade at each joint avoids tearing the bead, and it’s worth checking joints once the cold weather has passed.
Once debris packs a failed joint, the structure has nowhere to expand. The edges then take the pressure and start to spall. Keeping the seal sound avoids all of that.
Why it’s worth doing now in Woolage Green
Doing joint resealing alongside other planned works can save on access. Leaking joints need sealing now, as damage continues meanwhile. We can split the scope into urgent and planned. Halls, stores and units around places like Woolage Green may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.

Take a look at what affects the cost and our accreditations and insurance.
What sets the cost
Before we quote, we look at:
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.
Before you send an enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- Access details, including height
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Specification clauses that apply
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 use the quote form.
Common questions from Woolage Green clients
Will you take on work at estates like Aylesham Industrial Estate, close to Woolage Green?
Yes, sites like Aylesham Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Woolage Green. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Will our site in Woolage Green have to close for joint sealing?
In the majority of cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. The phasing plan comes with the quote.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
It depends on the product. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
How soon can the area be used again?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.
Are expansion joints and movement joints the same thing?
The terms overlap a great deal. A movement joint allows for expansion, contraction, shrinkage and loading, and the seal across it keeps water and debris out.
Can you fit around our working hours?
Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we will schedule the work to suit. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.
Surface by surface
Car park decks and ramps
Car park joints are some of the hardest-working joints in any building. We use a sealant made for wheel loads and the expected movement with bays done in phases so the car park keeps running.
Joints between different materials
Some mixed-material joints suit a hybrid sealant. The choice depends on the substrates and how much the joint moves, and confirm it in the quote.

Our process
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. The work itself usually takes a few hours to several weeks, depending on how many metres of joint there are and how much old sealant or filler needs removing, and we clear our waste as we work. Jobs in and around smaller places like Woolage Green are usually planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- 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.
- Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
- Any broken arrises or friable edges are flagged before work goes further.
- The right sealant goes in at the right depth, bonded to the two sides only.
- Areas reopen once cured, and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
