About our floor joint sealing in Charvil
Forklifts and pallet trucks are hard on open joints. Every pass chips at the bare concrete edge until a crisp saw cut becomes a wide, broken groove. Filling the joint properly gives the edges back their support. It also smooths the route for drivers and stock. We work on retail and showroom floors, saw-cut induced joints and forklift and pallet-truck routes, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit and chipped and spalling edges along forklift routes. For commercial sealant work in Charvil, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
In a smaller place such as Charvil, floor and movement joints are often in agricultural and rural business units, schools and the odd small industrial yard. Their slabs and walls still need movement joints that work.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Wokingham. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll come back to it.

Common problems we fix in Charvil
Soft sealant in a heavily trafficked joint gives the edges little support and the edges fail regardless. It can go the other way too: 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:
- Joint fill separating from the concrete
- Joint edges breaking up under truck wheels
- Soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints
- Scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor
Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Castle End Business Park (2.1 miles north-east of Charvil): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time.

Keeping the joints sound
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Allow for topping up joints as a new slab settles
- Record damaged joints with a photo and a location
- Keep trucks off new joints until we say they’re ready
- Make joint checks part of your floor inspections
A routine walk of the busiest aisles shows how the joints are holding up. Watch for filler pulling away from an edge, fresh chipping or grit collecting and keep photographs so changes are easy to compare.
Joints are easiest to look after when someone checks them regularly. A phased plan, worst routes first, spreads the work out and keeps on top of the rest.

We check the edges as part of the survey. Where they have broken away, we’ll tell you before quoting the filling so the filling isn’t wasted.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.

We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area.

Saw-cut induced joints
Induced joints are sawn into a new slab to control where it cracks. They start narrow and widen as the concrete dries, and on truck routes they need a filler that supports the edges.
Flexible floor sealants
Polyurethane floor sealants are available in a range of colours, and we will confirm what the specified product offers.
Floors, slabs and movement joints in Charvil
Charvil has at least three named business or industrial parks inside a 3-mile radius. Sites like these are full of saw-cut floor joints, yard slabs and car park joints. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Outside joints in yards and car parks still have to be dry before sealing, and where de-icing salt is spread in winter, open joints let it in.
For an estate such as Royal Berkshire Hospital (3.7 miles south-west of Charvil), the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time. Retail parks like Loddon Vale Shopping Centre (to the south of Charvil) have long runs of car park and yard joints taking daily traffic.
