About our floor joint sealing in Eastry
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 failing joints at loading bays and dock doors and a gap opening alongside old joint filler, we can help. Searching for sealant specialists in Eastry? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
In a smaller place such as Eastry, floor and movement joints are often in agricultural and rural business units, schools and the odd small industrial yard. Their slabs and walls still need movement joints that work.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, wherever the site is. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Warehouse floors and decks around Eastry
Rainfall across the South East, Eastry included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External joints still wait for dry conditions, and where de-icing salt is spread in winter, open joints let it in. Eastry is about 63 miles from central London. Distribution warehouses and industrial estates are common around the motorway corridors that serve the capital.
Schools like Eastry Church of England Primary School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly. Business parks such as Birnham Farm Business Centre, 1.2 miles north-west of Eastry, have car parks, paved areas and long brick and panel elevations, all with movement joints.
Eastry is about 4 miles north-west of Deal, in Kent. We cover commercial sites throughout Eastry, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places, from busy centres to rural villages. London is covered too, around 63 miles from Eastry.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
At the end of each section, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked with your site contact. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. Work in places the size of Eastry is planned as a single visit where we can. Clear photos and measurements help us bring the right products.
- 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.
- The chosen product is placed to its specified depth and trimmed level with the floor.
- We tell you when each zone can carry trucks again and move on to the next.
Preparing the site
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

Eastry: questions and answers
Is Eastry too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Eastry is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Must our site in Eastry stop work while the joints are done?
Typically not: we work in sections and hand each one back once it has cured. Tell us which hours and entrances we can use and we will plan from there.
How many days will you need on site?
That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit usually takes a day or more, depending on the metres of joint and how many zones the floor is split into. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
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. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
How long will the new sealant 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.
Which sealant will you use?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators.
After the work
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Hold traffic back until the product has cured
- Keep photos of joints that look like they’re failing
- Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets
- Expect fillers on young slabs to need a top-up
On younger slabs, a fine line can open down one side of a filled joint as the concrete keeps shrinking. That is common and is typically dealt with by topping up once the slab has settled down in most cases.
Every vehicle on a busy aisle hits a damaged joint. Early treatment protects wheels, loads and drivers as much as the floor.
What we can’t put right
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
- Uneven floors that need grinding or levelling
- Broken concrete either side of the joint
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think before you book.
Where we work in Eastry

Why act early in Eastry
Open joints are where dirt collects where scrubber-driers can’t get it out. In shops, showrooms and clean production areas that matters for hygiene and appearance. Filled joints are far simpler to keep clean. Small buildings around Eastry suffer from failed joints as much as large ones. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

General trades versus a specialist
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Cost factors for floor joints
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- How much there is to seal
- The size and state of each joint
- Access and working height
- The product specified
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.
What to include in your enquiry
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- Access details, including height
- The postcode of the building
- Specification clauses that apply
- When you need the work done
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
