How a job runs
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Most London premises stay occupied while we’re on site, so we agree zones and timings with the building or facilities manager. Phased work keeps the rest of the building in use.
- We walk the floor and mark up joint widths, edge damage and traffic routes.
- The treatment and the zones are set out in a fixed quote.
- Old fill and packed debris come out until both faces are sound.
- We extract the dust and prime the faces if the product needs it.
- The joint is filled to its specified depth and trimmed level.
- We hand each phase back when it can take traffic.
What we need from you
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Move anything stored against the joints

Floor joint sealing in Eel Pie Island
Open joints take a beating from forklift and pallet-truck wheels. Every pass chips at the bare concrete edge, and over time a neat cut turns into a ragged channel. A properly filled joint carries the wheel over and protects both arrises, which is kinder to trucks, loads and operators. The enquiries we see most involve cracked and crumbling joint fill and saw-cut joints left open and packed with grit, on saw-cut induced joints, joints along racking aisles and forklift and pallet-truck routes. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Eel Pie Island, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Distribution and trade units on London’s edges, and deck car parks across the city, hold most of its floor and slab joints. In Eel Pie Island, as everywhere in London, access, loading and the ULEZ all come into the plan.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

What happens if it’s left?
Duct tape or a general builders’ sealant can seem to buy some time. None of it is designed for wheel loads and traffic soon pulls it out. The right filler or sealant saves doing it twice. In a London building, a failed joint rarely affects only one party. Dealing with it early is simpler for everyone.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Eel Pie Island: questions and answers
Does your area include sites such as Newmans Shipyard & Business Park, near Eel Pie Island?
Yes. We cover Eel Pie Island and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Newmans Shipyard & Business Park. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Cassel Hospital, something you do?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
How many days will you need on site?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
When can forklifts run over new joint filler?
The wait is set by the product’s cure time and cooler floors take longer. We plan the phasing so that waiting time fits your operation.
Can you fill joints where the arrises have spalled?
We check the edges as part of the survey. Damaged edges are flagged up front, so nothing is filled that won’t hold.
Is the floor joint work guaranteed?
Every job has our 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship rather than structural movement or accidental damage.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.

What affects the price in Eel Pie Island
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- The total length or number of joints
- The size and state of each joint
- Any access equipment needed
- The product specified
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Sending details for a quote
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- The site address and postcode
- Access details, including height
- 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 the work to it. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
Maintenance after handover
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Remind operators to lift rather than drag
- Sweep debris out of open joints until they can be filled
- Let us know what the floor is cleaned with
- Put loading bays at the top of the list
Dragged forks and pallets gouge joints and edges alike. Steel tines will mark a good joint over time if it keeps happening.
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.
What the job involves on each surface
Saw-cut induced joints
Most of the joints in a warehouse floor are saw cuts. We clear them back to clean concrete and fill them to the depth the product calls for, finishing flush with the slab.
Isolation joints at walls and columns
Joints at walls and columns are often missed when floors are sealed, and they collect dust and debris. We include them in the survey.
