About our floor joint sealing in Ashurst
Not every floor joint we treat is in a warehouse. Retail units, showrooms and trade counters have slab joints crossed by trolleys, footfall and cleaning machines, and an open, grimy joint line looks poor as well as catching wheels. A flush, well-finished joint tidies the whole floor. If you’re dealing with soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints and grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor, we can help. For commercial sealant work in Ashurst, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
Jobs around smaller places like Ashurst are planned so the whole job is done in one visit. Note joint widths and the traffic that uses them, and we will take it from there.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll come back to it.

Joints that move: notes for Ashurst
Ashurst is within about 3 miles of the coast. Open joints in coastal car parks and yards let in salt-laden water as well as grit, so a failed joint lets more in and the edges break up sooner. The 3 miles around Ashurst 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.
Retail centres such as Totton Shopping Centre, 1.9 miles north-east of Ashurst, have floors, service yards and car parks with joints under constant traffic. Parks like Rushington Business Park (1 mile north-east of Ashurst) combine paved areas, car parks and building elevations, each with joints that move.

What affects the price in Ashurst
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:
- The product specified
- The total length or number of joints
- How much existing material needs removing
- Whether the work must be split into stages
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
Sending details for a quote
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Specification clauses that apply
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- When you need the work done
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.

Why deal with it now?
Dirt and spillage gather in open joints where scrubber-driers can’t get it out. In shops, showrooms and clean production areas that matters for hygiene and appearance. Filled joints are far simpler to keep clean. For buildings around smaller places like Ashurst, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.
There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.

Your questions answered
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Tatchbury Mount Hospital, something you do?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Ashurst, such as Rushington Business Park?
Yes. We cover Ashurst and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Rushington Business Park. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and any queries are raised before we start.
Why has the filler pulled away from one side?
Separation usually comes from slab shrinkage, poor preparation or the wrong product. We diagnose the cause before suggesting a fix.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.
Do you use semi-rigid filler or flexible sealant on floor joints?
There isn’t one answer for a whole floor. Hard wheels need edge support, which points to a semi-rigid filler, and movement joints or perimeters need something flexible. The quote sets out what goes where.
How many days will you need on site?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
General trades versus a specialist
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.
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Looking after the joints
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Start with the dock areas, where joints fail soonest
- Stop forks and pallets being dragged across joints
- Keep trucks off new joints until we say they’re ready
- Keep grit out of unfilled joints in the meantime
Normal floor cleaning is fine once the product has cured. If you use strong chemicals or hot-water washing, mention it when we quote so we choose something that tolerates them.
While the concrete edges are intact, it’s a filling job. After the edges go, repairs come into it and that takes longer and closes areas for longer.
What we are called out for in Ashurst
Soft sealant in a heavily trafficked joint gives the edges little support, so the concrete still breaks beside it. It can go the other way too: a stiff filler in a joint that keeps moving splits or comes away from the sides.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- Scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor
- Brittle joint filler breaking up
- Open saw cuts full of debris
- Flexible sealant torn out by wheels
Across sites such as Hounsdown Business Park, 1.2 miles to the east of Ashurst, floor and movement joints can be sealed in phases so units keep working.
