About our floor joint sealing in Foster Street

Concrete floors in warehouses and factories are cut into bays with saw cuts and day joints, and each joint line is a weak edge that wheels run over all day. We fill or seal them with a product matched to the traffic and the movement, so the arrises are supported and grit stays out. If you’re dealing with filler that has parted from one face and grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor, we can help, whatever the surface. Searching for sealant specialists in Foster Street? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.

Halls, schools and small commercial buildings near places like Foster Street have movement joints in brick, block and concrete too. They tend to be overlooked until something leaks or cracks.

A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. If an installation problem shows up, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will arrange a return visit.

Commercial clients in Foster Street

Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Foster Street can sit alongside others in a wider programme.

Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm them with the quote.

FAQs: Foster Street

Is a hospital such as Princess Alexandra Hospital somewhere you can work?

Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.

Should we reseal the joints in an older industrial floor in Harlow?

Usually, yes, as long as the joint edges are still sound. We’ll advise on the product for your traffic and flag any edges that need repair first.

Do you use semi-rigid filler or flexible sealant on floor joints?

We decide joint by joint. Hard wheels need edge support, which points to a semi-rigid filler and perimeter or movement joints need flexibility. The quote sets out what goes where.

Can you follow the specification on our project?

Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.

Can you send site paperwork?

Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.

How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?

Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.

What affects the price in Foster Street

Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we look at:

  • Whether the work must be split into stages
  • The size and state of each joint
  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
  • Induction, permit and paperwork requirements

Pricing floor joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Details that help us quote

To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Send us:

  • Your programme or deadline
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours

Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. To take the first step, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us.

How the job changes by surface

Loading bays and dock areas

At loading bays, product choice has to suit the loads, the temperature and the wet. Phasing is planned around your delivery schedule.

Construction joints

Day joints on busy routes are prone to edge damage. We look at how much they are moving before choosing the treatment.

Floors, slabs and movement joints in Foster Street

Foster Street is about 21 miles from central London. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London. Foster Street is part of, or right next to, Harlow, which was built as a planned town. Its industrial areas were laid out from the start, and units built in the same decades tend to have slabs and movement joints that age in step, so a planned programme across a site can make sense.

Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Harlow Innovation Park (1.4 miles north-west of Foster Street): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time. Office parks like Hastingwood Business Centre, 0.6 miles to the south of Foster Street, have decks, ramps and clad elevations whose joints take movement every day. Schools such as Henry Moore Primary School have movement joints in their walls and floors that are easy to overlook.

Foster Street is about 2 miles east of Harlow, in Essex.

What we can’t put right

Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:

  • Damaged or worn floor coatings and screeds
  • Broken concrete either side of the joint
  • A floor that rocks at the joints, which needs a structural fix

If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will say what we think.

What we seal

  • Saw-cut induced joints
  • Construction joints
  • Loading bays
  • Retail and showroom floors
  • Joints along racking aisles
  • Forklift and pallet-truck routes

How a job runs

We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. Once we are cleared to begin, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it. If others near Foster Street need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.

  1. First, the zones and order of work are agreed with you.
  2. Any joints with broken edges are flagged before work starts.
  3. We clear each run back to clean concrete.
  4. We fill the joints with the agreed product, finished level.
  5. You get a time for each zone to reopen.

What we need from you

  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Confirm the product named in the specification
  • Let building users know which areas are affected

Getting a fixed quote

Related advice

Leave it or put it right?

Duct tape or a general builders’ sealant can seem to buy some time. Neither is made to carry wheels, and it typically ends up dragged across the floor. The right filler or sealant saves doing it twice. Older rural buildings around Foster Street move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
