Around places the size of Eddington, 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.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, 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.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
Our process
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we are in, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. What matters most for a job in Eddington is a clear list of what needs doing, so send photographs of each area. You will then get a fixed price for the work.
- A floor survey records every joint, its edges and what crosses it.
- The treatment and the zones are set out in a fixed quote.
- Each joint is cut or routed back to clean, sound concrete.
- We extract the dust and prime the faces if the product needs it.
- Filler or sealant is placed to depth and finished flush.
- Zones reopen once cured and the work moves on.
Getting the site ready
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Arrange parking or a loading space
Getting a fixed quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.

Why deal with it now?
An open joint is a modest filling job while its edges are sound. Left until they break, it needs an edge repair before any filling can start which means more downtime in that zone. In a smaller place such as Eddington, getting a contractor back for a second visit takes time, so it’s worth dealing with every failing joint at once.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
Why appoint us
- Fully insured, including public liability cover
- Our applicators hold CSCS cards
- One number for every site we cover
- Specification-led, product-correct work

Floor joint sealing in Eddington: the local picture
With the shore within about 2 miles, Eddington counts as a coastal location. Near the sea, external slabs, ramps and decks see salt air and driven rain as well as their usual loads, so a failed joint lets more in and the edges break up sooner. Eddington sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside joints in yards and car parks still have to be dry before sealing, and where de-icing salt is spread in winter, open joints let it in.
At places like St. Augustine's Business Park, 2 miles to the west of Eddington, joints are sealed a section at a time so operations carry on. For an estate such as Queen Victoria Memorial Hospital (1.1 miles north-east of Eddington), the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time.
Eddington is about 1 mile south-west of Herne Bay, in Kent. Looking for floor joint sealing in Eddington? We can help, as we do across Kent. Eddington is one of 931 places we cover in Kent for floor joints. There’s a separate page for London, about 53 miles away.

When something else is needed
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
- Uneven floors that need grinding or levelling
- Broken concrete either side of the joint

Common questions from Eddington clients
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Queen Victoria Memorial Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Eddington, such as Eddington Business Park?
Yes. We cover Eddington and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Eddington Business Park. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Does the weather affect the work?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
Is colour matching possible?
That depends on the product. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we will confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
What happens if the joint edges are damaged?
Edge condition is recorded when we look at the floor. Damaged edges are flagged up front, so nothing is filled that won’t hold.
When to call us in Eddington
Left open, joints fill with grit, wrap and wood fragments. That debris is hard and levers at the edges as wheels pass, speeding up the damage.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Open saw cuts full of debris
- Scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor
- Failing joints at loading bays and dock doors
- A gap opening alongside old joint filler
Parks like Eddington Business Park (under half a mile north of Eddington) combine paved areas, car parks and building elevations, each with joints that move.
