For managing agents and facilities managers
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
How we handle floor joint sealing in Addington
Concrete floors in warehouses and factories are cut into bays with saw cuts and day joints, and every one of those joints is an exposed edge under hard wheels. We fill or seal them with a product matched to the traffic and the movement so the edges are held up and debris can’t pack in. We work on joints along racking aisles, retail and showroom floors and construction joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are dock area joints that have failed first and sealant pulled out along a truck route. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Addington tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Areas such as a loading bay or car park deck in Addington usually have to stay in use. We work through joints a section at a time, closing small areas in turn.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

When to bring in a specialist
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
What sealant work can’t fix
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
- Joint edges that have already broken away, which need repairing before filling (we will tell you if so)
- Uneven floors that need grinding or levelling
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will say what we think.

Our process
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. In Addington, most buildings stay in use during the work, so zones and timings are agreed with whoever manages the building. Phased work keeps the rest of the building in use.
- We agree the traffic routes and phasing with your site team.
- We point out joints whose edges need repairing first.
- We clear each run back to clean concrete.
- We fill the joints with the agreed product, finished level.
- You get a time for each zone to reopen.
Before we start on site
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Point out any areas we must not close
Getting a fixed quote
Every quote starts with the facts: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

FAQs: Addington
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Bethlem Royal Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Can you work at a site such as Vulcan Way Industrial Estate, by Addington?
Yes, sites like Vulcan Way Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Addington. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Does the weather affect the work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.
What do you need from us to quote?
Approximate metres of joint, photos of typical and worst areas, and a floor plan are usually enough for a quick quote. We can visit where that helps so ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email to set one up.

When to call us in Addington
Pallet-truck and forklift wheels concentrate weight on a tiny contact patch. Where a joint is open, the wheel dips and strikes the far edge and those knocks chip the edge apart bit by bit.
Things that usually lead to an enquiry:
- Joint fill separating from the concrete
- Dock area joints that have failed first
- Untidy open joints in a retail unit
- Joint edges breaking up under truck wheels
Hospital campuses such as Bethlem Royal Hospital (1.7 miles north of Addington) grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old.

- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- Their public liability cover

Traffic, movement and joints around Addington
Few London car parks or loading bays can be taken out of use for more than a short spell, so we seal in sections and hand areas back as each cures. The 3 miles around Addington take in at least three named trading estates, business parks or retail parks. That puts plenty of warehouse floors, service yards and car parks close by, all with joints under traffic.
With Addington inside the ULEZ and kerb space scarce, we sort access and loading before the first day on site. Across sites such as Chaffinch Business Park, which lies north of Addington, floor and movement joints can be sealed in phases so units keep working.

Maintenance after handover
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Let us know what the floor is cleaned with
- Plan for a top-up on newer floors
- Remind operators to lift rather than drag
- Keep grit out of unfilled joints in the meantime
Dragged forks and pallets gouge joints and edges alike. Steel tines will mark a good joint over time.
Regular inspection catches failing fills before the edges go. We can quote a programme that starts with the busiest areas and keeps on top of the rest.
