On site: what to expect
In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before the next one starts. Rural sites near Bloodden may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.
- Each area is assessed for joint width, arris damage and the wheels that cross it.
- A fixed quote follows, listing the treatment for each area and the order of work.
- We remove failed material and packed debris until sound concrete is exposed on both faces.
- 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.
- We tell you when each zone can carry trucks again and move on to the next.
What we need from you
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Let us know about inductions and permits

Floor joint sealing in Bloodden
It isn’t only heavy industry. 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 forklift and pallet-truck routes, loading bays and retail and showroom floors, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are cracked and crumbling joint fill and a rough ride across broken joints. Whoever orders the work in Bloodden, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Around smaller places such as Bloodden, floor joints are often in barns and farm buildings turned into workshops, stores and offices. Joints in those slabs take vehicles, trolleys and foot traffic, and need a filler or sealant to match.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Joints that move: notes for Bloodden
At least three named trading, business or retail sites lie within about 3 miles of Bloodden. Floors, loading bays and yards on sites like these are where floor and movement joints work hardest. Bloodden sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside joints in yards and car parks still have to be dry before sealing, and where de-icing salt is spread in winter, open joints let it in.
Hospital campuses such as St Martins Hospital, 4.5 miles to the north-west of Bloodden, grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old. Schools like Adisham Church of England Primary School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly. Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Aylesham Industrial Estate (1.2 miles south of Bloodden): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time.
Bloodden is about 6 miles south-east of Canterbury, in Kent. Across the CT3 postcode area, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places, large and small. Sites around London have their own page, about 58 miles away.
Work on floor joints is covered throughout CT3. We also cover Adisham (1 mile north-west), Aylesham (1 mile south), Bramling (2 miles north), Bekesbourne (2 miles north-west) and Womenswold (2 miles south) for floor joints. A short drive away, we cover Canterbury (6 miles north-west), Margate (13 miles north-east), Dover (8 miles south-east), Folkestone (11 miles south), Ramsgate (12 miles north-east) and Broadstairs (13 miles north-east).

Questions we’re asked in Bloodden
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like St Martins Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Is Bloodden off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
What information helps you price floor joint sealing?
A rough joint length, a few photos and a site plan are usually enough for a quick quote. We can visit where that helps so ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over to set one up.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Which is better for warehouse joints, filler or sealant?
It depends on the traffic and the movement. Forklift routes generally call for a semi-rigid filler that holds the arrises, while joints that move more take a flexible sealant.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Different surfaces, different methods
Construction joints
Construction joints, sometimes called day joints, mark where one pour ended and the next began. They often see more movement than sawn joints, and that shapes the product choice.
Isolation joints at walls and columns
Perimeter and column joints get forgotten, and they collect dust and debris. We include them in the survey.
Cost factors for floor joints
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- The size and state of each joint
- Removal of failed or old sealant
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 and we will price your job on its own details.
Sending details for a quote
For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- The postcode of the building
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Specification clauses that apply
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

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. For buildings around smaller places like Bloodden, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.

Looking after the joints
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:
- Remind operators to lift rather than drag
- Let us know what the floor is cleaned with
- Photograph any joint that starts to chip
- Plan for a top-up on newer floors
Keep traffic off fresh joints until the time we give you and it pays to stick to it. Cones or barriers stop the first driver cutting the corner.
Joints are easiest to look after when someone checks them regularly. A phased plan, worst routes first, spreads the work out and keeps on top of the rest.
