Looking after the joints
After handover, these steps help:
- Treat loading bay joints first if they’re failing
- Expect fillers on young slabs to need a top-up
- Clear packed debris from open joints regularly
- Photograph any joint that starts to chip
Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets along the floor. Steel tines will mark a good joint over time.
Edges tend to break slowly at first, then quickly. Once the first piece is out, wheels drop further and hit harder, so it pays to act at the first signs.
Floor joint sealing for commercial buildings in Blendon
Forklifts and pallet trucks are hard on open joints. Each crossing knocks the unsupported edge until a crisp saw cut becomes a wide, broken groove. A properly filled joint carries the wheel over and protects both arrises, which is kinder to trucks, loads and operators. We work on joints along racking aisles, construction joints and retail and showroom floors, and what we are called in for most is chipped and spalling edges along forklift routes and dock area joints that have failed first. Most enquiries from Blendon start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Most London buildings can’t shut a car park, loading bay or warehouse floor for long. Joints are done in sections, with bays coned off one after another, so the site keeps operating.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Should maintenance staff do it?
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Where floor joints take the most wear near Blendon
At least three named trading, business or retail sites lie within about 3 miles of Blendon. Their warehouses, yards and car parks are exactly where joints take the most punishment. London car parks, loading bays and podium decks often can’t close for long, so joints are sealed in sections with each area handed back once cured.
For a centre such as Broadway Shopping Centre, 1.2 miles north-east of Blendon, the service yard and car park joints normally need attention first. University campuses such as University of Greenwich Avery Hill Campus (to the west of Blendon) have car parks, paved walkways and building elevations with movement joints. Office parks like Old Bexley Business Park, 1.3 miles to the east of Blendon, have decks, ramps and clad elevations whose joints take movement every day.

From enquiry to sign-off
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we are in, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. In Blendon, most buildings stay in use during the work, so we agree zones and timings with the building or facilities manager. Areas are handed back as each section is finished.
- A floor survey records every joint, its edges and what crosses it.
- The treatment and the zones are set out in a fixed quote.
- Each joint is cut or routed back to clean, sound concrete.
- Dust is vacuumed out and primer applied where specified.
- Filler or sealant is placed to depth and finished flush.
- Zones reopen once cured and the work moves on.
Before we start on site
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Advice
What else we do in Blendon
Common questions from Blendon clients
Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?
Yes. Booked loading bays, goods lifts and permit-to-work systems are normal for London jobs. Say when the building is occupied and when it’s quiet, and we’ll plan accordingly. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
Can you work at a site such as Old Bexley Business Park, by Blendon?
Yes. Our area takes in Blendon and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Old Bexley Business Park included. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Why has the filler pulled away from one side?
Young concrete carries on shrinking for a long time and a stiff filler can separate down one side. It is typically dealt with by topping up.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
How many days will you need on site?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
That depends on the product specified. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
Quoting for work in Blendon
To price the job, we consider:
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- How much there is to seal
- Any access equipment needed
- The size and state of each joint
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.
What we need to price the job
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- The postcode of the building
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- When you need the work done
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
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 we will say which joints need what. Failed sealant in a building in Blendon can quickly affect neighbours, tenants or the floor below: water travels through shared structures, and a small leak becomes a dispute between occupiers. Dealing with it early is simpler for everyone.
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.
