General trades versus a specialist
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, 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.
Keeping the joints sound
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets
- Record damaged joints with a photo and a location
- Check joint lines on busy aisles regularly
- Respect the cure time before traffic returns
Keep traffic off fresh joints until the time we give you, and it’s worth enforcing. In a busy building, barriers keep early traffic away.
Regular inspection catches failing fills before the edges go. A phased plan, worst routes first, spreads the work out and keeps on top of the rest.
Broom Street: questions and answers
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Whitstable and Tankerton Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Can being near the sea in Broom Street affect the sealant we need?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. We choose the product for the exposure, prime where the manufacturer requires it and size the joint for its movement.
How long does a job like this take?
It depends on the scope, but the work normally takes a day for smaller units, with bigger warehouse floors programmed over several visits. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
Which is better for warehouse joints, filler or sealant?
The answer comes from the traffic and the joint’s movement. Trafficked joints on truck routes typically need a semi-rigid filler to support the edges, while joints that move more take a flexible sealant.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Will we need to close the floor?
In most cases, just the area being treated is coned off. Traffic returns to each zone once it has cured, then we move to the next.
Is colour matching possible?
Often, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. If others near Broom Street need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We look at joint widths, edge condition and the traffic on each route.
- The quote fixes the price, names the filler or sealant and shows how the floor will be zoned.
- Old filler, debris and contamination are cut or routed out back to clean concrete.
- Dust is sucked out of the joint and a primer used if the product data sheet asks for one.
- 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.
Getting the site ready
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Slabs, ramps and loading bays in Broom Street
The sea is no more than about 2 miles from Broom Street. Open joints in coastal car parks and yards let in salt-laden water as well as grit, so it pays to keep them sealed. Broom Street is about 46 miles from central London. Distribution warehouses and industrial estates are common around the motorway corridors that serve the capital, and their floor joints take forklift and pallet-truck traffic all day.
For buildings at a park such as Waterham Business Park, which lies east of Broom Street, brick and panel movement joints are easy to forget until one leaks. Across sites such as Lamberhurst Farm Industrial Estate (2.7 miles east of Broom Street), floor and movement joints can be sealed in phases so units keep working. Schools like Graveney Primary School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly.

What the job involves on each surface
Semi-rigid joint fillers
A semi-rigid filler is stiff enough to hold the arrises up when wheels cross. They tolerate little movement, so they suit joints where most shrinkage has already happened.
Flexible floor sealants
Polyurethane floor sealants are available in a range of colours, and we’ll confirm what the specified product offers.
Cost factors for floor joints
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- How accessible the joints are
- How much existing material needs removing
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- The site’s rules and procedures
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.
What we need to price the job
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- When you need the work done
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. To take the first step, phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
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 we’ll say which joints need what. Converted and older buildings near places like Broom Street tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
