Floor joint sealing for businesses in Four Throws
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
After the work
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Walk the main routes and inspect joint lines on a regular cycle
- Respect the cure time before traffic returns
- Clear packed debris from open joints regularly
- Treat loading bay joints first if they’re failing
Normal floor cleaning is fine once the product has cured. If you use strong chemicals or hot-water washing, mention it when we quote so the product suits them.
Grit in an open joint does damage every time a wheel crosses it. Getting it filled stops the damage while it is still a straightforward job.

What we’re called out for in Four Throws
A soft, flexible sealant on a forklift route can’t hold the arrises up, so the concrete still breaks beside it. It can go the other way too: a stiff filler in a joint that keeps moving splits or comes away from the sides.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Loading bay joints breaking down
- Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
- Untidy open joints in a retail unit
- Unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit
Hospitals like Hawkhurst Community Hospital (2.1 miles west of Four Throws) have multi-storey or surface car parks whose joints carry vehicles round the clock.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Proof of insurance
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
Should maintenance staff do it?
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.

Four Throws: questions and answers
Would you work within a site like Hawkhurst Community Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Is Four Throws off your patch?
Not at all. Four Throws is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.
Can you phase floor joint work around operations?
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.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we will ask for the register before work on an older building. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
How long does a job like this take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.
For managing agents and facilities managers
Whether you are a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.
Warehouse floors and decks around Four Throws
Four Throws sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, yard and car park joints are only sealed when they’re dry and clean, and where de-icing salt is spread in winter, open joints let it in. Four Throws has two named business or industrial parks inside a 3-mile radius. Sites like these are full of saw-cut floor joints, yard slabs and car park joints.
In a school such as Hawkhurst Church of England Primary School, movement joints in brick, block and hall floors tend to be forgotten until they leak. Another example is Bodiam Business Park, 2.7 miles to the south of Four Throws, where floors and yards would be done in stages around the occupiers.

Why deal with it now?
Broken joints shake trucks, stock and operators alike. Wheels and bearings wear faster and loads can shift, which nobody budgets for. A properly filled joint smooths the route. Around Four Throws, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote when you are ready.
