Why deal with it now?

Waiting for a site-wide shutdown often means the joints keep getting worse. Phased in zones, the busiest routes can be treated first and the remainder follows on a plan that suits you. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Castle Hill. Send photographs of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

Where floor joints take the most wear near Castle Hill

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, and where de-icing salt is spread in winter, open joints let it in. Central London is about 32 miles from Castle Hill. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London; their floors carry heavy traffic every shift.

For a school such as Brenchley and Matfield Church of England Primary School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays. Warehouse floors on estates like Eldon Way Industrial Estate, 2.5 miles north-west of Castle Hill, carry pallet trucks and forklifts over every saw-cut joint.

Questions we’re asked in Castle Hill

Is a smaller place like Castle Hill outside your area?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. 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.

Is hospital work, at somewhere like Tunbridge Wells Hospital, something you do?

Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.

What guarantee do you give on joint filling?

Every job has our 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later slab movement or damage from impacts.

Do you hold CHAS accreditation?

Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we are a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.

How do you choose the sealant?

If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, tell us and we will confirm them with the quote.

Can you fill joints where the arrises have spalled?

Edge condition is recorded when we look at the floor. Where they have broken away, we will tell you before quoting the filling, so nothing is filled that won’t hold.

What sets the cost

Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:

  • The size and state of each joint
  • The total length or number of joints
  • The site’s rules and procedures
  • Working within restricted access windows

Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.

Before you send an enquiry

It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:

  • Clear photographs of the problem areas
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • Any dates the work must fit around

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work typically 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. Smaller jobs around Castle Hill can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. A floor survey records every joint, its edges and what crosses it.
  2. The treatment and the zones are set out in a fixed quote.
  3. Old fill and packed debris come out until both faces are sound.
  4. Dust is vacuumed out and primer applied where specified.
  5. The joint is filled to its specified depth and trimmed level.
  6. We hand each phase back when it can take traffic.

Before we start on site

  • Agree which areas must stay open
  • For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot

Looking after the joints

After handover, these steps help:

  • Respect the cure time before traffic returns
  • Walk the main routes and inspect joint lines on a regular cycle
  • Sweep debris out of open joints until they can be filled
  • Tell us about strong cleaning chemicals before we quote

If a joint we filled starts to break up within 12 months, tell us and we will arrange a look. Beyond that, an inspection once or twice a year catches failing joints early.

Grit in an open joint does damage every time a wheel crosses it. Filling it ends that cycle before it becomes a repair.

Different surfaces, different methods

Forklift and pallet-truck routes

Main aisles and cross routes carry the most wheel movements, so their joints wear fastest. Semi-rigid fillers are widely used on these routes to hold the edges up.

Construction joints

Day joints on busy routes are prone to edge damage. We look at how much they are moving before choosing the treatment.

What we are called out for in Castle Hill

Soft sealant in a heavily trafficked joint gives the edges little support, so the concrete still breaks beside it. The opposite mistake happens as well: a stiff filler in a joint that keeps moving splits or comes away from the sides.

These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:

  • Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
  • Dock area joints that have failed first
  • Saw-cut joints left open and packed with grit
  • Untidy open joints in a retail unit

A healthcare site such as Tunbridge Wells Hospital (4.7 miles west of Castle Hill) depends on car parks, ramps and service yards whose joints take traffic all day.
