Floor joint sealing in Arborfield
Most industrial slabs are divided into panels by saw-cut joints and construction joints, and every one of those joints is an exposed edge under hard wheels. Our job is to put the right filler or sealant into them for the loads and the movement they see, so the arrises are supported and grit stays out. We work on saw-cut induced joints, loading bays and retail and showroom floors, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are trucks and loads jolting over damaged joints and soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Arborfield it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
In and around smaller places like Arborfield, the concrete floors we see are often in converted farm buildings, small workshops and storage units. Joints in those slabs take vehicles, trolleys and foot traffic, and need a filler or sealant to match.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

From enquiry to sign-off
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself normally taking a day for smaller units, with bigger warehouse floors programmed over several visits. Jobs in and around smaller places like Arborfield are typically planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- First, the zones and order of work are agreed with you.
- We point out joints whose edges need repairing first.
- Failed material and debris are removed and the joint cleaned.
- The chosen filler or sealant goes in flush with the slab.
- You get a time for each zone to reopen.
What we need from you
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Agree which areas must stay open

What else we do in Arborfield
What happens if it’s left?
A floor coating laid over open joints soon cracks along the joint lines. The joints have to be filled or sealed as joints before or alongside any coating work. Around Arborfield, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photos of each area and we will quote for the lot.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Why appoint us
- Clear, fixed quotes
- One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland
- Over 20 years of commercial sealing
- Fully insured, including public liability cover

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, which is what makes a joint last.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Honest limits
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Slab panels that rock or move under load
- Structural cracking in the slab
- Uneven floors that need grinding or levelling
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Construction joints
- Forklift and pallet-truck routes
- Joints along racking aisles
- Loading bays
- Retail and showroom floors
- Saw-cut induced joints
Your questions answered
Can you work at a site such as Thames Valley Science Park, by Arborfield?
Yes. We cover Arborfield and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Thames Valley Science Park. To start, just ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is Arborfield too far out for you?
No. Places such as Arborfield are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you send site paperwork?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
How long does a typical visit take?
That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit usually takes a day for smaller units, with bigger warehouse floors programmed over several visits. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
What information helps you price floor joint sealing?
Approximate metres of joint, photos of typical and worst areas, and a floor plan let us give a quick quote. For larger floors, a site visit is often best, and you can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us to arrange it.
Is colour matching possible?
That depends on the product specified. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we will ask for the register before work on an older building. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
After the work
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Check joint lines on busy aisles regularly
- Record damaged joints with a photo and a location
- Mention any aggressive cleaning regime at quote stage
- Start with the dock areas, where joints fail soonest
If a joint we filled starts to break up within 12 months, tell us and we will arrange a look. After that, a check before your busiest period keeps small repairs small.
Treating joints while the arrises are sound keeps the work simple. After the edges go, repairs come into it, with more downtime and more disruption.
Different surfaces, different methods
Isolation joints at walls and columns
Where racking or plant sits near column joints, access is agreed before we start.
Forklift and pallet-truck routes
Main aisles and cross routes carry the most wheel movements, so their joints wear fastest. A semi-rigid filler is common here because it supports the arrises under hard wheels.
