Common questions from Crawley Down clients
Does your area include sites such as Silverwood Industrial Estate, near Crawley Down?
Yes. Our area takes in Crawley Down and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Silverwood Industrial Estate included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Queen Victoria Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is the floor joint work guaranteed?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and the work is covered by public liability insurance.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
How long before trucks can use the joints?
The wait is set by the product’s cure time and cooler floors take longer. Phasing is planned with that in mind.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Floor joint sealing in Crawley Down, done properly
Across Crawley Down and the rest of West Sussex, it runs the same way: you send details, we send a fixed quote, the joints are done and the 12-month guarantee follows. Approximate joint lengths, a few photographs and a floor plan are enough for a quick quote, or we can arrange a site visit. We work on forklift and pallet-truck routes, joints along racking aisles and retail and showroom floors, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are sealant pulled out along a truck route and cracked and crumbling joint fill. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Crawley Down is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Around places the size of Crawley Down, joints that need sealing tend to be in rural business units, farm buildings put to commercial use, schools and community buildings. Concrete floors and yards in these buildings move and crack like any others.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

When it isn’t the sealant
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- A floor that rocks at the joints, which needs a structural fix

- A failing floor coating, which is a flooring contractor’s job

Other services in Crawley Down
Different surfaces, different methods
Isolation joints at walls and columns
Where racking or plant sits near column joints, access is agreed before we start so nothing has to move unexpectedly.
Flexible floor sealants
Polyurethane sealants suit floor joints with larger movement. They don’t hold the arrises up as firmly as a semi-rigid fill, so they suit lighter traffic or movement joints.
Slabs, ramps and loading bays in Crawley Down
Crawley Down is about 26 miles from central London. Distribution warehouses and industrial estates are common around the motorway corridors that serve the capital, and their floor joints take forklift and pallet-truck traffic all day. 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 gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints.
Large sites such as Queen Victoria Hospital (to the east of Crawley Down) have car parks, service roads and long elevations with movement joints in brick and panels. For an occupier at a site such as Silverwood Industrial Estate, 1.2 miles to the north-west of Crawley Down, the joints at loading doors and dock levellers normally see the hardest wear.

Why it’s worth doing now in Crawley Down
Duct tape or a general builders’ sealant can seem to buy some time. Neither is made to carry wheels and traffic soon pulls it out. A product chosen for the traffic and movement does the job once. Small buildings around Crawley Down suffer from failed joints as much as large ones. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.

When to call us in Crawley Down
Small, hard wheels put a lot of load through a very small area. Where a joint is open, the wheel dips and strikes the far edge and those knocks chip the edge apart bit by bit.
Clients usually get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Loading bay joints breaking down
- Untidy open joints in a retail unit
- Unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit
- A rough ride across broken joints
Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Rowfant Business Centre (1.3 miles south-west of Crawley Down): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time.
Before you book anyone
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
Quoting for work in Crawley Down
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- The size and state of each joint
- How much there is to seal
- How much existing material needs removing
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Details that help us quote
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- The product your specification calls for
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- The postcode of the building
- Any dates the work must fit around
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
