What else we do in Hatherden
Hatherden: questions and answers
Is a hospital such as Andover War Memorial Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Is Portway Industrial Estate, near Hatherden, within your area?
Yes. We cover Hatherden and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Portway Industrial Estate. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.
Which is better for warehouse joints, filler or sealant?
We decide joint by joint. Hard wheels need edge support, which points to a semi-rigid filler, and movement joints or perimeters need something flexible. You will see the choice for each area in the quote.
When can forklifts run over new joint filler?
Each product has its own cure time and cooler floors take longer. We plan the phasing so that waiting time fits your operation.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Should maintenance staff do it?
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
What we are called out for in Hatherden
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 rigid fill in a joint that is still opening cracks or debonds.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit
- A rough ride across broken joints
- Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
- Grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor
Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Glenmore Trade Park (2.6 miles south-east of Hatherden): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time.
Before you book anyone
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Proof of insurance
Work for main contractors and building owners
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Hatherden can sit alongside others in a wider programme.
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
What sets the cost
These are the things that shape the price:
- Phasing around occupants
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Distance, for remote addresses
- The size and state of each joint
The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.
Before you send an enquiry
Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Any specification or named product
- When you need the work done
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
What sealant work can’t fix
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Damaged or worn floor coatings and screeds
- A floor that rocks at the joints, which needs a structural fix
- Broken concrete either side of the joint
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How a job runs
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself typically takes between a day and a number of days, set by the joint lengths, the edge condition and the phasing you need, and we clear our waste as we work. If others near Hatherden need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- We look at joint widths, edge condition and the traffic on each route.
- The quote fixes the price, names the filler or sealant and shows how the floor will be zoned.
- Old filler, debris and contamination are cut or routed out back to clean concrete.
- Dust is sucked out of the joint and a primer used if the product data sheet asks for one.
- The chosen product is placed to its specified depth and trimmed level with the floor.
- We tell you when each zone can carry trucks again and move on to the next.
What we need from you
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
