Keeping the joints sound

Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:

  • Record damaged joints with a photo and a location
  • Hold traffic back until the product has cured
  • Put loading bays at the top of the list
  • Remind operators to lift rather than drag

Once cured, the joints get cleaned along with the slab. Tell us about aggressive cleaning products or hot washing at quote stage 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.

Common questions from Batchworth Heath clients

Is a hospital such as Harefield Hospital somewhere you can work?

Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.

Is a smaller place like Batchworth Heath outside your area?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Can you fill joints where the arrises have spalled?

Edge condition is recorded when we look at the floor. Damaged edges are flagged up front, so nothing is filled that won’t hold.

How long do sealant joints last?

Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.

Do you offer coloured sealant?

That depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we will confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.

What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?

Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.

How a job runs

The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. For work around Batchworth Heath, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.

  1. First, the zones and order of work are agreed with you.
  2. We point out joints whose edges need repairing first.
  3. We clear each run back to clean concrete.
  4. We fill the joints with the agreed product, finished level.
  5. You get a time for each zone to reopen.

What we need from you

  • Let building users know which areas are affected
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand

Advice

When something else is needed

Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:

  • Worn screed or surface finishes
  • Uneven floors that need grinding or levelling
  • Spalled arrises, which need an edge repair first

Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Saw-cut induced joints
  • Forklift and pallet-truck routes
  • Construction joints
  • Loading bays
  • Joints along racking aisles
  • Retail and showroom floors

What we’re called out for in Batchworth Heath

An ageing filler or sealant can go brittle and split especially under daily scrubbing and traffic. Once it has gone hard or come loose, it protects nothing.

Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:

  • Unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit
  • A rough ride across broken joints
  • Joint edges breaking up under truck wheels
  • Scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor

Sites like Harefield Hospital (2 miles south-west of Batchworth Heath) carry ambulances, deliveries and visitors’ cars over their road and deck joints.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Their public liability cover
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
  • Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint

Choosing a commercial sealant contractor

Doing it in-house

General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.

Certain joints really need a specialist: for example 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.
