When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- A floor that rocks at the joints, which needs a structural fix
- Uneven floors that need grinding or levelling
- A failing floor coating, which is a flooring contractor’s job
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.

Floor joint sealing in Binsted
We have been sealing commercial joints since 2005. Our CSCS-carded applicators follow your site induction and rules, and the business is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member holding public liability insurance. Completed joints come with a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. We work on construction joints, retail and showroom floors and joints along racking aisles, and the failures we are asked to look at most are joint fill separating from the concrete and old filler gone hard, cracked or loose. Most enquiries from Binsted start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Around smaller places such as Binsted, 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.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Looking after the joints
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Stop forks and pallets being dragged across joints
- Photograph any joint that starts to chip
- Put loading bays at the top of the list
- Expect fillers on young slabs to need a top-up
Normal floor cleaning is fine once the product has cured. Tell us about aggressive cleaning products or hot washing at quote stage so we choose something that tolerates them.
Grit in an open joint does damage every time a wheel crosses it. Filling it ends that cycle before it becomes a repair.

Work for main contractors and building owners
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor. Programme, specification and site rules come first, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
Questions we’re asked in Binsted
Would you work within a site like Arundel & District Community Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Binsted too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Which sealant will you use?
The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Can you send site paperwork?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Are you insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Do you repair broken joint edges?
We check the edges as part of the survey. Damaged edges are flagged up front, so nothing is filled that won’t hold.
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 if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Floor joint sealing in Binsted: the local picture
At least three named trading, business or retail sites lie within about 3 miles of Binsted. Their warehouses, yards and car parks are exactly where joints take the most punishment. Binsted is about 50 miles from central London. The South East has large numbers of industrial estates and warehouses along the motorway corridors.
For an occupier at a site such as Tokar Industrial Park (0.8 miles south-west of Binsted), the joints at loading doors and dock levellers normally see the hardest wear. Schools like Walberton and Binsted CofE Primary School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly. Campuses like University of Chichester (Bognor Campus), 4.8 miles south-west of Binsted, mix old and new buildings, with movement joints wherever they meet.

Why deal with it now?
Some runs only need partial renewal or topping up. If old material is sound on one face and only a fine gap has opened, it may not all have to come out and the quote shows which approach suits each run. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Binsted. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
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.

On site: what to expect
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Rural sites near Binsted may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- We look at joint widths, edge condition and the traffic on each route.
- A fixed quote follows, listing the treatment for each area and the order of work.
- Each joint is cleared of old fill and dirt and taken back to clean, sound edges.
- Dust is sucked out of the joint and a primer used if the product data sheet asks for one.
- We fill each joint to depth and finish it flush so wheels roll straight across.
- The area is handed back once it has cured enough to take traffic.
What we need from you
- Send your site hours and access windows
