How we handle floor joint sealing in Bredgar
Forklifts and pallet trucks are hard on open joints. Every pass chips at the bare concrete edge, and over time a neat cut turns into a ragged channel. Filling the joint properly gives the edges back their support, which is kinder to trucks, loads and operators. Most enquiries involve a gap opening alongside old joint filler and soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints, on saw-cut induced joints, retail and showroom floors and loading bays. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Bredgar is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Jobs around smaller places like Bredgar are planned so the whole job is done in one visit. Tell us the joint widths if you can, and what drives or walks over them.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Kent. If an installation problem shows up, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will arrange a return visit.

How a job runs
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work normally takes a day or more, depending on the metres of joint and how many zones the floor is split into, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. If others near Bredgar need work, visits can be combined. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- 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.
- Old filler, debris and contamination are cut or routed out back to clean concrete.
- We vacuum each run and prime it if the chosen product requires a primer.
- The chosen product is placed to its specified depth and trimmed level with the floor.
- We tell you when each zone can carry trucks again and move on to the next.
What we need from you
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Your questions answered
Would you work within a site like Sittingbourne Memorial Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Is Bredgar too far out for you?
No. Places such as Bredgar are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
Will we need to close the floor?
The work is phased. We work aisle by aisle or zone by zone so the rest of the floor stays in use. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
What do you need from us to quote?
Use our quote form, or email photographs and a plan, with the traffic on each area. A fixed quote follows with the product and phasing set out.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.
How long before trucks can use the joints?
Cure times vary with the product and how cold the slab is. We’ll give you a time for each zone when we agree the phasing.
Joints that move: notes for Bredgar
Bredgar lies roughly 37 miles out from central London. The South East has large numbers of industrial estates and warehouses along the motorway corridors, and their floor joints take forklift and pallet-truck traffic all day. Bredgar sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External joints still wait for dry conditions, and gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints.
A campus such as Canterbury Christ Church University, 3.2 miles south of Bredgar, has long runs of movement joint in its buildings, decks and paving. For a school such as Bredgar Church of England Primary School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays.
Bredgar is about 3 miles south-west of Sittingbourne, in Kent. We cover commercial sites throughout Bredgar, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. We work across 931 places in Kent, large and small. Sites around London have their own page, about 37 miles away.

Do you need floor joint sealing in Bredgar?
Loading bay joints are exposed to wind, wet tyres and bigger temperature swings, as well as the tightest turning loads. They are often the first on a site to break down.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Joint fill separating from the concrete
- A rough ride across broken joints
- Broken arrises where pallet trucks cross
- Failing joints at loading bays and dock doors
Business parks such as Kent Science Park, 1.2 miles to the east of Bredgar, have car parks, paved areas and long brick and panel elevations, all with movement joints.
What your quote should include
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
What we can’t put right
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Spalled arrises, which need an edge repair first
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
- Damaged or worn floor coatings and screeds
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Forklift and pallet-truck routes
- Construction joints
- Joints along racking aisles
- Saw-cut induced joints
- Retail and showroom floors
- Loading bays
Leave it or put it right?
Broken joints shake trucks, stock and operators alike. Wheels and bearings wear faster and loads can shift, adding costs nobody plans for. A properly filled joint smooths the route. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Bredgar. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.
Why appoint us
- Sealing commercial buildings since 2005
- 12-month guarantee on workmanship
- Clear, fixed quotes

After the work
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Let us know what the floor is cleaned with
- Stop forks and pallets being dragged across joints
- Respect the cure time before traffic returns
- Plan for a top-up on newer floors
Problems inside the 12-month guarantee period are ours to put right. Beyond that, an inspection once or twice a year catches failing joints early.
While the concrete edges are intact, it’s a filling job. Once they have broken away, edge repair comes first, with more downtime and more disruption.
