Floor joint sealing in Broadfield
It isn’t only heavy industry. Retail units, showrooms and trade counters have slab joints crossed by trolleys, footfall and cleaning machines, where a gappy, dirty joint looks untidy and snags castors. A neat, flush fill makes the floor easier to clean and look after. Most enquiries involve broken arrises where pallet trucks cross and loading bay joints breaking down, on retail and showroom floors, joints along racking aisles and saw-cut induced joints. For commercial sealant work in Broadfield, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
Around places the size of Broadfield, joints that need sealing tend to be in rural business units, farm buildings put to commercial use, schools and community buildings. Their slabs and walls still need movement joints that work.
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.

Less than 3 miles from Broadfield there are at least three named estates and business parks. That puts plenty of warehouse floors, service yards and car parks close by, all with joints under traffic. Broadfield is about 28 miles from central London. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London, and their floor joints take forklift and pallet-truck traffic all day.
Hospitals like Crawley Hospital, 1.5 miles to the north of Broadfield, have multi-storey or surface car parks whose joints carry vehicles round the clock. For a school such as Seymour Primary School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays.

Questions about Broadfield
Do you cover business parks and estates near Broadfield, such as Tilgate Forest Business Centre?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Broadfield, Tilgate Forest Business Centre among them, are all within reach. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Should we reseal the joints in an older industrial floor in Crawley?
In the majority of cases it is, if the edges haven’t broken up too far. We will look at the joints, recommend a product for the traffic and movement, and say if any edges need repair before sealing.
What site paperwork can you supply?
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.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover.
How soon can traffic go back on the floor?
Each product has its own cure time and cooler floors take longer. Phasing is planned with that in mind.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we will ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Surface by surface
Flexible floor sealants
Movement joints, joints at walls and joints in lightly trafficked areas often take a flexible sealant. Backing rod limits how deep the bead goes and keeps it off the joint bottom.
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.

After the work
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:
- Make joint checks part of your floor inspections
- Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets
- Start with the dock areas, where joints fail soonest
- Record damaged joints with a photo and a location
Once cured, the joints get cleaned along with the slab. Tell us about aggressive cleaning products or hot washing at quote stage so the product suits them.
Treating joints while the arrises are sound keeps the work simple. Once they have broken away, edge repair comes first, with more downtime and more disruption.
When to call us in Broadfield
A soft, flexible sealant on a forklift route can’t hold the arrises up and the edges fail regardless. It can go the other way too: a rigid fill in a joint that is still opening cracks or debonds.
Look out for the following:
- Untidy open joints in a retail unit
- Broken arrises where pallet trucks cross
- Trucks and loads jolting over damaged joints
- Flexible sealant torn out by wheels
Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Holmbush Potteries Industrial Estate (1.4 miles west of Broadfield): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time.
Questions to ask before you book
- How they’ll work around occupants
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
Should maintenance staff do it?
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
