How we handle floor joint sealing in Hastings Old Town
Sometimes the concrete either side of a joint has already spalled. A filler laid against broken edges has nothing sound to grip, so if the edges need repair before any filling, we will say so and explain how it affects the programme. We work on joints along racking aisles, saw-cut induced joints and retail and showroom floors, and the failures we are asked to look at most are saw-cut joints left open and packed with grit and cracked and crumbling joint fill.

Work in a smaller place like Hastings Old Town is typically one building at a time. Getting widths, depths and traffic details up front means one visit, not two.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

Your questions answered
Is a hospital such as Conquest Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Does the sea air around Hastings Old Town change the choice of sealant?
It can. Driven rain and salt are tougher on outside sealant than sheltered inland conditions. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
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 work stops until any suspect material has been tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.
Do you repair broken joint edges?
A filler needs sound edges to grip. If the arrises have spalled, we’ll say they need repair before filling and set out how that affects the job.
