Your questions answered
Can you work on a hospital site such as Gosport War Memorial Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Is a smaller place like Clayhall outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Can you phase floor joint work around operations?
In the majority of cases, just the area being treated is coned off. Each zone reopens when the product can take traffic and the next zone follows.
How long will the new sealant last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
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.
How do we get a quote for floor joints?
Approximate metres of joint, photos of typical and worst areas, and a floor plan let us give a quick quote. We can visit where that helps, and you can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over to arrange it.
Floor joint sealing in Clayhall
Open joints take a beating from forklift and pallet-truck wheels. Every pass chips at the bare concrete edge until a crisp saw cut becomes a wide, broken groove. A properly filled joint carries the wheel over and protects both arrises. It also smooths the route for drivers and stock. We work on retail and showroom floors, loading bays and joints along racking aisles, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor and brittle joint filler breaking up. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Clayhall first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
In a smaller place such as Clayhall, 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.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll come back to it.

Looking after the joints
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Start with the dock areas, where joints fail soonest
- Keep trucks off new joints until we say they’re ready
- Make joint checks part of your floor inspections
- Plan for a top-up on newer floors
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.
Treating joints while the arrises are sound keeps the work simple. After the edges go, repairs come into it and that takes longer and closes areas for longer.

Advice
Floor joint sealing in Clayhall: the local picture
Clayhall sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. External movement joints in car parks, ramps and yards near the coast take salt and wind-driven rain on top of traffic, so a failed joint lets more in and the edges break up sooner. At about 67 miles from central London, Clayhall is within reach of the capital. The roads out of London are lined with trade parks and distribution sheds.
Another example is Cranbourne Industrial Estate, 0.6 miles north of Clayhall, where floors and yards would be done in stages around the occupiers. Centres like Tricorn Centre (2.3 miles north-east of Clayhall) have mall floors and service decks whose joints carry steady traffic.
Clayhall is about 2 miles south-east of Gosport, in Hampshire. Across the PO12 postcode area, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. 723 places across Hampshire fall within our area, including Clayhall.

Doing it in-house
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
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.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Clayhall
An ageing filler or sealant can go brittle and split especially under daily scrubbing and traffic. At that point it neither holds the edges nor keeps debris out.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Failing joints at loading bays and dock doors
- Cracked and crumbling joint fill
- Flexible sealant torn out by wheels
- Grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor
University campuses such as University of Portsmouth - North Zone (1.8 miles north-east of Clayhall) have car parks, paved walkways and building elevations with movement joints.
What your quote should include
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- What site paperwork they can supply
- How they’ll work around occupants
Cost factors for floor joints
To price the job, we consider:
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Working within restricted access windows
- How much existing material needs removing
- Joint width, depth and condition
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.
Sending details for a quote
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- Specification clauses that apply
- Your programme or deadline
- The site address and postcode
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.
