When to bring in a specialist

Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.

Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.

About our floor joint sealing in Broadwater Down

Mastic Doctor has worked on joints in commercial buildings for over 20 years. Applicators carry CSCS cards and work to your site rules, and we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member holding public liability insurance. Completed joints come with a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Most enquiries involve a rough ride across broken joints and joint fill separating from the concrete, on construction joints, saw-cut induced joints and loading bays. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Broadwater Down is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

Around places the size of Broadwater Down, joints that need sealing tend to be in rural business units, farm buildings put to commercial use, schools and community buildings. Concrete floors and yards in these buildings move and crack like any others.

Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

When to call us in Broadwater Down

Concrete slabs shrink as they dry out, and the saw cuts are there so it cracks in straight, controlled lines. As the panels contract, the joints widen so a filler put in early may separate along one side.

Typical triggers for a call:

  • Scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor
  • Brittle joint filler breaking up
  • A rough ride across broken joints
  • A gap opening alongside old joint filler

Schools such as Broadwater Down Primary School have movement joints in their walls and floors that are easy to overlook.

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually carry out the work
  • Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
  • How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
  • How joint depth will be controlled

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

Why act early in Broadwater Down

Dirt and spillage gather in open joints, out of reach of the floor cleaner. Where the floor is on show or needs to be kept clean, that is a problem. Flush, filled joints leave nothing for cleaners to dig out. Small buildings around Broadwater Down suffer from failed joints as much as large ones. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

Work for main contractors and building owners

Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.

Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Broadwater Down can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Kent.

Our process

On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself typically taking a day for smaller units, with bigger warehouse floors programmed over several visits. For a site in Broadwater Down, we plan so the whole job is done in one go where possible. Photos with rough sizes let us arrive with everything needed.

  1. We walk the floor and mark up joint widths, edge damage and traffic routes.
  2. The treatment and the zones are set out in a fixed quote.
  3. Each joint is cut or routed back to clean, sound concrete.
  4. We extract the dust and prime the faces if the product needs it.
  5. Filler or sealant is placed to depth and finished flush.
  6. Zones reopen once cured and the work moves on.

Before we start on site

  • Send your site hours and access windows
  • Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
  • Warn occupants and staff about the work

Get a fixed quote

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

Aftercare for building managers

Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:

  • Make joint checks part of your floor inspections
  • Clear packed debris from open joints regularly
  • Expect fillers on young slabs to need a top-up
  • Keep photos of joints that look like they’re failing

On younger slabs, a fine line can open down one side of a filled joint as the concrete keeps shrinking. That is common and is typically dealt with by topping up once the slab has settled down.

Regular inspection catches failing fills before the edges go. We can quote a programme that starts with the busiest areas and keeps on top of the rest.

Your questions answered

Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Tunbridge Wells Nuffield Hospital?

Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.

Can you work at a site such as Royal Victoria Shopping Centre, by Broadwater Down?

Yes. Our area takes in Broadwater Down and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Royal Victoria Shopping Centre included. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.

How long will the new sealant last?

There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it.

When can forklifts run over new joint filler?

Cure times vary with the product and the conditions. We’ll give you a time for each zone before we start.

Do you cover Broadwater Down?

Yes. Sites across Broadwater Down are covered, and the same phone number covers every area.

Are you insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
