Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
From enquiry to sign-off
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Work in places the size of Foxholes is planned as a single visit where we can. Photos with rough sizes let us arrive with everything needed.
- Each area is assessed for joint width, arris damage and the wheels that cross it.
- A fixed quote follows, listing the treatment for each area and the order of work.
- Old filler, debris and contamination are cut or routed out back to clean concrete.
- Dust is extracted from the joint and primer applied where the manufacturer specifies it.
- We fill each joint to depth and finish it flush so wheels roll straight across.
- We tell you when each zone can carry trucks again and move on to the next.
What we need from you
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Confirm the product named in the specification

Floor joint sealing in Foxholes
Sometimes the concrete either side of a joint has already spalled. Filling against a crumbled arris won’t hold for long, so we’ll tell you if the joint edges need repairing first and explain how it affects the programme. We work on retail and showroom floors, construction joints and forklift and pallet-truck routes, and what we are called in for most is joint edges breaking up under truck wheels and flexible sealant torn out by wheels. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Foxholes, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Around Foxholes, most floor and movement joint jobs are single buildings or yards. Getting widths, depths and traffic details up front means one visit, not two.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

Keeping the joints sound
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Remind operators to lift rather than drag
- Keep trucks off new joints until we say they’re ready
- Expect fillers on young slabs to need a top-up
- Tell us about strong cleaning chemicals before we quote
Dragged forks and pallets gouge joints and edges alike. Steel tines will mark a good joint over time if it keeps happening.
Grit in an open joint does damage every time a wheel crosses it. Getting it filled stops the damage before it becomes a repair.

When it isn’t the sealant
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:
- Slab panels that rock or move under load
- A floor that is out of level for the racking or trucks
- A failing floor coating, which is a flooring contractor’s job
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Retail and showroom floors
- Forklift and pallet-truck routes
- Joints along racking aisles
- Construction joints
- Loading bays
- Saw-cut induced joints
Why act early in Foxholes
Every jolt over a broken joint passes into the truck, the load and the driver. Wheels and bearings wear faster and loads can shift, adding costs nobody plans for. A properly filled joint smooths the route. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.

FAQs: Foxholes
Is a smaller place like Foxholes outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you work at a site such as Taylor Trading Estate, by Foxholes?
Yes, sites like Taylor Trading Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Foxholes. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Why is there a gap next to the joint filler?
On newer slabs, the concrete keeps shrinking after the joints are filled, so a semi-rigid filler can part from one face. It is normally dealt with by topping up.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
How do we get a quote for floor joints?
A rough joint length, a few photographs and a site plan let us give a quick quote. We can visit where that helps so ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email to set one up.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover.
