About our floor joint sealing in Bessels Green

Not every floor joint we treat is in a warehouse. Shops, showrooms and trade counters have joints that take trolleys, foot traffic and scrubber-driers, and an open, grimy joint line looks poor as well as catching wheels. A neat, flush fill makes the floor easier to clean and look after. We work on loading bays, construction joints and retail and showroom floors, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor and saw-cut joints left open and packed with grit. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Bessels Green is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

In and around smaller places like Bessels Green, the concrete floors we see are often in converted farm buildings, small workshops and storage units. Whether it’s a farm store turned workshop or a storage unit, the joints need a product that suits the traffic.

The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Our process

We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. While we are working, the area stays contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. Smaller jobs around Bessels Green can be grouped with others nearby. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.

  1. A floor survey records every joint, its edges and what crosses it.
  2. You receive a fixed quote showing products and phasing.
  3. Each joint is cut or routed back to clean, sound concrete.
  4. Dust is vacuumed out and primer applied where specified.
  5. Filler or sealant is placed to depth and finished flush.
  6. We hand each phase back when it can take traffic.

What we need from you

  • Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
  • Share your working hours and any access restrictions

Request a quote

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a site visit.

How the quote is worked out

There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we take into account:

  • Joint width, depth and condition
  • Access and working height
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first

The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Details that help us quote

Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:

  • Access details, including height
  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • The product your specification calls for
  • Clear photos of the problem areas

A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.

When it isn’t the sealant

Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:

  • Uneven floors that need grinding or levelling
  • Cracks across panels caused by settlement or overload
  • Damaged or worn floor coatings and screeds

If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

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

Bessels Green: questions and answers

Is Bessels Green too far out for you?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Does your area include sites such as Salters Heath Business Centre, near Bessels Green?

Yes. Our area takes in Bessels Green and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Salters Heath Business Centre included. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.

Do you guarantee industrial floor joints?

There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and the work is covered by public liability insurance.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.

How long does a typical visit take?

The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.

Do you use semi-rigid filler or flexible sealant on floor joints?

We decide joint by joint. Where hard wheels cross, a semi-rigid filler is normally right and perimeter or movement joints need flexibility. The quote sets out what goes where.

Leave it or put it right?

An open joint is a modest filling job while its edges are sound. Wait until the edges have spalled and the concrete needs repairing before the joint can be filled, with longer closures to match. Halls, stores and units around places like Bessels Green may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.

Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

When to call us in Bessels Green

Unfilled joints soon pack with grit, shrink-wrap scraps and pallet splinters. Packed debris acts like a wedge every time a wheel crosses, speeding up the damage.

Look out for the following:

  • A rough ride across broken joints
  • Joint edges breaking up under truck wheels
  • Saw-cut joints left open and packed with grit
  • Flexible sealant torn out by wheels

Another example is Sevenoaks Business Centre, 1.7 miles north-east of Bessels Green, where floors and yards would be done in stages around the occupiers.

What your quote should include

  • Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
  • Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
  • Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
  • Their public liability cover

How to choose a sealant contractor

When to bring in a specialist

Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, 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.

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
