Common questions from Earlstone Common clients
Is Earlstone Common too far out for you?
Not at all. Earlstone Common is within our area. 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.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Earlstone Common, such as Newbury Retail Park?
Yes, sites like Newbury Retail Park are within our area, along with the rest of Earlstone Common. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick 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 around the site hours and access windows you give us.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
What guarantee do you give on joint filling?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee and the work is covered by public liability insurance.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Floor joint sealing in Earlstone Common, done properly
For sites in Earlstone Common and across Hampshire, the process is short: 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 saw-cut induced joints, joints along racking aisles and loading bays, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are chipped and spalling edges along forklift routes and scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor. Searching for sealant specialists in Earlstone Common? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.
In and around smaller places like Earlstone Common, the concrete floors we see are often in converted farm buildings, small workshops and storage units. Whether it’s a farm store turned workshop or a storage unit, the joints need a product that suits the traffic.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Work for main contractors and building owners
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.
Our process
Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. Jobs in and around smaller places like Earlstone Common are usually planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- First comes a walk of the floor to record joint sizes, broken edges and traffic routes.
- A fixed quote follows, listing the treatment for each area and the order of work.
- We remove failed material and packed debris until sound concrete is exposed on both faces.
- Dust is sucked out of the joint and a primer used if the product data sheet asks for one.
- Filler or sealant goes in to the right depth and is finished flush with the slab.
- The area is handed back once it has cured enough to take traffic.
What we need from you
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
Quotes
A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Advice
What we’re called out for in Earlstone Common
Older fills harden, shrink and crack with age especially under daily scrubbing and traffic. Once it has gone hard or come loose, it protects nothing.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Filler that has parted from one face
- Trucks and loads jolting over damaged joints
- Cracked and crumbling joint fill
- Unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit
Across sites such as New Greenham Business Park, 2.2 miles to the north-east of Earlstone Common, floor and movement joints can be sealed in phases so units keep working.

Surface by surface
Flexible floor sealants
Where joints move more, a flexible polyurethane floor sealant is often used. They don’t hold the arrises up as firmly as a semi-rigid fill, so they suit lighter traffic or movement joints.
Construction joints
Construction joints, sometimes called day joints, mark where one pour ended and the next began. They can move more than saw cuts and that shapes the choice of filler or sealant.
How the quote is worked out
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- Which sealant the job calls for
- The size and state of each joint
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Working within restricted access windows
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.
What to include in your enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- Any specification or named product
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with what you know.

Doing it in-house
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
