Floor joint sealing across Clothall

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

Floor joint sealing in Clothall

A working floor can rarely be closed for days on end, so we phase the work aisle by aisle or bay by bay. Share your site hours and access windows and the programme is built around them, with goods still moving in the areas we aren’t in. If you are dealing with flexible sealant torn out by wheels and brittle joint filler breaking up, we can put it right, on saw-cut induced joints, construction joints and forklift and pallet-truck routes alike. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Clothall, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.

Smaller community and commercial buildings around Clothall have their own movement joints in walls and floors. They tend to be overlooked until something leaks or cracks.

The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Owners, agents and contractors

Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.

As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.

Should maintenance staff do it?

Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

What sealant work can’t fix

Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:

  • Structural cracking in the slab
  • Damaged or worn floor coatings and screeds
  • Uneven floors that need grinding or levelling

Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we seal

  • Loading bays
  • Forklift and pallet-truck routes
  • Saw-cut induced joints
  • Construction joints
  • Retail and showroom floors
  • Joints along racking aisles

What the job involves on each surface

Flexible floor sealants

Polyurethane floor sealants are available in a range of colours, and we will confirm what the specified product offers.

Semi-rigid joint fillers

Semi-rigid fillers are designed to support joint edges under hard wheels. They tolerate little movement, so they suit joints where most shrinkage has already happened.

Floors, slabs and movement joints in Clothall

Central London is about 33 miles from Clothall. The roads out of London are lined with trade parks and distribution sheds; their floors carry heavy traffic every shift. Clothall is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Even so, yard and car park joints are only sealed when they’re dry and clean, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint.

Retail sites such as Letchworth Gateway Retail Park (2.4 miles west of Clothall) have car park, service yard and shop floor joints under constant traffic. Schools like Weston Primary School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly. Hospital campuses such as Lister Hospital, 4.1 miles to the south-west of Clothall, grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old.

Clothall is about 3 miles east of Letchworth, in Hertfordshire. We cover Clothall, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. Our Hertfordshire coverage takes in 371 places, large and small. Our London page has more on work in that area, about 33 miles away.

On site: what to expect

We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. If others near Clothall need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.

  1. First, the zones and order of work are agreed with you.
  2. Any joints with broken edges are flagged before work starts.
  3. We clear each run back to clean concrete.
  4. We fill the joints with the agreed product, finished level.
  5. Each area is handed back when ready for traffic.

What we need from you

  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use
  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Let building users know which areas are affected

Advice

Questions about Clothall

Is Clothall too small for you to travel to?

Not at all. Clothall is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Do you cover business parks and estates near Clothall, such as Letchworth Gateway Retail Park?

Yes, sites like Letchworth Gateway Retail Park are within our area, along with the rest of Clothall. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.

Are your applicators CSCS-carded?

Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we will send them with the quote.

Will we need to close the floor?

The work is phased. We work aisle by aisle or zone by zone so the rest of the floor stays in use. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.

How long do sealant joints last?

There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.

Is it normal for joint filler to separate?

Young concrete carries on shrinking for a long time and a stiff filler can separate down one side. It is usually dealt with by topping up.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.

What happens if it’s left?

A floor coating laid over open joints soon cracks along the joint lines. The joints have to be filled or sealed as joints before or alongside any coating work. Converted and older buildings near places like Clothall tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

Pricing floor joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Call for a quote.
