Common questions from Boughton Monchelsea clients
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Oakwood Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Is a smaller place like Boughton Monchelsea outside your area?
Not at all. Boughton Monchelsea is within our area. 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.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Can the warehouse stay open while you work?
The work is phased. Areas are taken out of use a section at a time. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
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.
About our floor joint sealing in Boughton Monchelsea
Forklifts and pallet trucks are hard on open joints. Every pass chips at the bare concrete edge until a crisp saw cut becomes a wide, broken groove. A properly filled joint carries the wheel over and protects both arrises. It also smooths the route for drivers and stock. The enquiries we see most involve unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit and trucks and loads jolting over damaged joints, on loading bays, forklift and pallet-truck routes and retail and showroom floors. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Boughton Monchelsea tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Halls, schools and small commercial buildings near places like Boughton Monchelsea have movement joints in brick, block and concrete too. They tend to be overlooked until something leaks or cracks.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

When something else is needed
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Joint edges that have already broken away, which need repairing before filling (we’ll tell you if so)
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
- Level or flatness problems across the floor
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal

Why it’s worth doing now in Boughton Monchelsea
Tape, or whatever sealant is in the stores cupboard, may look like a fix for a while. None of it is designed for wheel loads, and it typically ends up dragged across the floor. A product chosen for the traffic and movement does the job once. Halls, stores and units around places like Boughton Monchelsea may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.

Keeping the joints sound
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Allow for topping up joints as a new slab settles
- Put loading bays at the top of the list
- Respect the cure time before traffic returns
- Walk the main routes and inspect joint lines on a regular cycle
Problems inside the 12-month guarantee period are ours to put right. After that, a check before your busiest period keeps small repairs small.
Treating joints while the arrises are sound keeps the work simple. After the edges go, repairs come into it, with more downtime and more disruption.
Doing it in-house
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
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.
