Floor joint sealing for commercial buildings in Ashurst
Mastic Doctor has worked on joints in commercial buildings for over 20 years. Our CSCS-carded applicators follow your site induction and rules, and the business is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with public liability insurance in place. Finished floor joints in Ashurst carry our 12-month guarantee. Most enquiries involve cracked and crumbling joint fill and unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit, on retail and showroom floors, construction joints and saw-cut induced joints. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Ashurst, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Around smaller places such as Ashurst, floor joints are often in barns and farm buildings turned into workshops, stores and offices. Whether it’s a farm store turned workshop or a storage unit, the joints need a product that suits the traffic.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, call 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will arrange a return visit.

What the job involves on each surface
Construction joints
Some construction joints have steel edge protection, others are plain concrete. If the edges look unsound, we’ll say so before any filling is done.
Flexible floor sealants
Movement joints, joints at walls and joints in lightly trafficked areas often take a flexible sealant. Backing rod limits how deep the bead goes and keeps it off the joint bottom.

Cost factors for floor joints
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Working within restricted access windows
- Access and working height
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.
What we need to price the job
There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:
- When you need the work done
- Access details, including height
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Any specification or named product
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. The first step is to call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with what you know.
Owners, agents and contractors
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We are fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
From enquiry to sign-off
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work normally takes between a day and a number of days, set by the joint lengths, the edge condition and the phasing you need, and we clear our waste as we work. Jobs in and around smaller places like Ashurst are usually planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- First, the zones and order of work are agreed with you.
- Any joints with broken edges are flagged before work starts.
- Failed material and debris are removed and the joint cleaned.
- We fill the joints with the agreed product, finished level.
- Each area is handed back when ready for traffic.
Before we start on site
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Arrange parking or a loading space
Quotes
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.

Common questions from Ashurst clients
Is Ashurst too far out for you?
No. Places such as Ashurst are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Is a hospital such as Tunbridge Wells Homeopathic Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards.
What do you need from us to quote?
Send details through our quote form or by email, with the traffic on each area. We then send a fixed quote that shows the products and zones.
Is colour matching possible?
Often, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Should floor joints be filled or sealed?
The answer comes from the traffic and the joint’s movement. Trafficked joints on truck routes usually need a semi-rigid filler to support the edges and joints with more movement take a flexible sealant.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it.
What happens if it’s left?
An open joint is a modest filling job while its edges are sound. Left until they break, it needs an edge repair before any filling can start which means more downtime in that zone. Converted and older buildings near places like Ashurst tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.

Traffic, movement and joints around Ashurst
Ashurst lies roughly 28 miles out from central London. Distribution warehouses and industrial estates are common around the motorway corridors that serve the capital, and their floor joints take forklift and pallet-truck traffic all day. Rainfall across the South East, Ashurst included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Outside joints in yards and car parks still have to be dry before sealing, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint.
A campus such as Canterbury Christ Church University - Salomons (to the north-east of Ashurst) has long runs of movement joint in its buildings, decks and paving. Sites like Tunbridge Wells Homeopathic Hospital (to the east of Ashurst) carry ambulances, deliveries and visitors’ cars over their road and deck joints. For buildings at a park such as Speldhurst Business Park, which lies east of Ashurst, brick and panel movement joints are easy to forget until one leaks.
Ashurst is about 5 miles west of Royal Tunbridge Wells, in Kent. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Ashurst can call on us for floor joints. We work across 931 places in Kent. Our Brighton page has more on work in that area (24 miles or so).

What sealant work can’t fix
Honesty saves time and money. New sealant won’t cure:
- Structural cracking in the slab
- Worn screed or surface finishes
- Joint edges that have already broken away, which need repairing before filling (we will tell you if so)
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will give you a straight answer.
