Floor joint sealing for commercial buildings in Ditton
Mastic Doctor has worked on joints in commercial buildings for over 20 years. Applicators carry CSCS cards and work to your site rules, and we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with public liability insurance in place. Completed joints come with a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. We work on forklift and pallet-truck routes, retail and showroom floors and loading bays, and what we’re called in for most is a rough ride across broken joints and failing joints at loading bays and dock doors. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Ditton, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Around places the size of Ditton, 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.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Ditton
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Ditton can form part of a wider programme.

FAQs: Ditton
Is South Aylesford Retail Park, near Ditton, within your area?
Yes, sites like South Aylesford Retail Park are within our area, along with the rest of Ditton. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or email us with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is Ditton too far out for you?
No. Places such as Ditton are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Why is there a gap next to the joint filler?
Separation typically comes from slab shrinkage, poor preparation or the wrong product. We diagnose the cause before suggesting a fix.
Can you send site paperwork?
Each site asks for different documents, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
Can the warehouse stay open while you work?
Usually only the zone we are working in has to close. Each zone reopens when the product can take traffic, then we move to the next.
On site: what to expect
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work usually takes a day for smaller units, with bigger warehouse floors programmed over several visits, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For a site in Ditton, we plan so the whole job is done in one go where possible. Clear photographs and measurements help us bring the right products.
- We walk the floor and mark up joint widths, edge damage and traffic routes.
- You receive a fixed quote showing products and phasing.
- Old fill and packed debris come out until both faces are sound.
- Dust is vacuumed out and primer applied where specified.
- The joint is filled to its specified depth and trimmed level.
- Zones reopen once cured and the work moves on.
What we need from you
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

Advice
Floors, slabs and movement joints in Ditton
Ditton lies roughly 28 miles out from central London. The roads out of London are lined with trade parks and distribution sheds. Ditton sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External joints still wait for dry conditions, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint.
For estates staff at a university like University for the Creative Arts - Maidstone, 2.5 miles south-east of Ditton, building and paving joints are part of the planned maintenance list. For a school such as Ditton Infant School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays.

What affects the price in Ditton
Quotes vary with the job. Expect it to depend on:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
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.
What to include in your enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Specification clauses that apply
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
When to call us in Ditton
Floor joints collect dust, oil, curing compound and cleaning residue. Without cutting back to sound, clean concrete the new filler can’t stay bonded.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
- Filler that has parted from one face
- Broken arrises where pallet trucks cross
- Sealant pulled out along a truck route
Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as New Hythe Business Park (1 mile north of Ditton): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time.
What to look for in a quote
- Their public liability cover
- Who will actually carry out the work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the existing material will be dealt with
Why deal with it now?
Not every joint needs stripping out completely. If old material is sound on one face and only a fine gap has opened, it may not all have to come out and the quote shows which approach suits each run. Small buildings around Ditton suffer from failed joints as much as large ones. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote.
