About our floor joint sealing in Cross in Hand
Across Cross in Hand and the rest of East Sussex, it runs the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. 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 saw-cut induced joints, loading bays and construction joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints and a gap opening alongside old joint filler. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Cross in Hand it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Halls, schools and small commercial buildings near places like Cross in Hand have movement joints in brick, block and concrete too. They tend to be overlooked until something leaks or cracks.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

After the work
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- Start with the dock areas, where joints fail soonest
- Respect the cure time before traffic returns
- Remind operators to lift rather than drag
- Keep grit out of unfilled joints in the meantime
Young concrete carries on shrinking, so some fillers part slightly from one face. It is a known trait of new floors and a later top-up deals with it in most cases.
Treating joints while the arrises are sound keeps the work simple. After the edges go, repairs come into it, with more downtime and more disruption.
Leave it or put it right?
Dirt and spillage gather in open joints, out of reach of the floor cleaner. In shops, showrooms and clean production areas that matters for hygiene and appearance. Filled joints are far simpler to keep clean. Around Cross in Hand, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

Common questions from Cross in Hand clients
Is Cross in Hand off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Is Station Road Industrial Estate, near Cross in Hand, within your area?
Yes. We cover Cross in Hand and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Station Road Industrial Estate. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Do you repair broken joint edges?
Filling against broken edges doesn’t last. If the arrises have spalled, we will say they need repair before filling and set out how that affects the job.
How long do sealant joints last?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
Does weather matter for sealant 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.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Should maintenance staff do it?
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
What affects the price in Cross in Hand
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- How accessible the joints are
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Which sealant the job calls for
A quote for floor joints depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.
