How we handle floor joint sealing in Chevening
Before quoting, we look at what the floor is telling us: joint widths, whether the joints are still opening, what runs over them and how the edges have held up. That tells us whether semi-rigid filler or flexible sealant suits each run and the answer can differ from one zone to the next. If you have grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor and filler that has parted from one face, we can help. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Chevening, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Smaller community and commercial buildings around Chevening have their own movement joints in walls and floors. They tend to be overlooked until something leaks or cracks.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

How the job changes by surface
Loading bays and dock areas
Loading bays combine the heaviest turning loads with wet tyres and cold air from open doors. These are often the first joints on site to break down, so they are often the place to start.
Retail and showroom floors
Retail work is phased around trading. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.

What sets the cost
The price varies from site to site. It mainly depends on:
- The size and state of each joint
- Phasing around occupants
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Access and working height
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.
What we need to price the job
There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- When you need the work done
- Clear photos of the problem areas
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
What we’re called out for in Chevening
A slab keeps shrinking for a long time after it is cast, and saw-cut joints give that shrinkage a planned place to crack. As the panels contract, the joints widen so a filler put in early may separate along one side.
Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:
- Open saw cuts full of debris
- Untidy open joints in a retail unit
- Brittle joint filler breaking up
- Failing joints at loading bays and dock doors
For a school such as Combe Bank School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays.

Maintenance after handover
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Treat loading bay joints first if they’re failing
- Walk the main routes and inspect joint lines on a regular cycle
- Allow for topping up joints as a new slab settles
- Hold traffic back until the product has cured
Dragged forks and pallets gouge joints and edges alike. Even a well-filled joint can be damaged by steel scraping along it if it keeps happening.
Edges tend to break slowly at first, then quickly. Each chip makes the drop deeper and the next impact harder, so it pays to act at the first signs.
Questions about Chevening
Can you work on a hospital site such as Sevenoaks Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Will you take on work at estates like North Downs Business Park, close to Chevening?
Yes. We cover Chevening and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as North Downs Business Park. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, tell us and we’ll 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’ll tell you before quoting the filling, so nothing is filled that won’t hold.
How soon can traffic go back on the floor?
Cure times vary with the product and the conditions. You will get a reopening time for each area before we start.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Why act early in Chevening
Broken joints shake trucks, stock and operators alike. That means extra wear on wheels and a rougher ride for staff, which nobody budgets for. A filled joint takes most of that out. Halls, stores and units around places like Chevening may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

Rainfall across the South East, Chevening included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Outside joints in yards and car parks still have to be dry before sealing, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint.
