What the job involves on each surface
Isolation joints at walls and columns
Joints around columns and along walls let the slab move without cracking against the structure. A flexible product suits them better than a stiff filler.
Loading bays and dock areas
Joints at dock doors need a product that copes with the traffic and the conditions. Curing times also have to fit around deliveries.
Floor joint sealing in Ingrams Green, done properly
Not every floor joint we treat is in a warehouse. Shops, showrooms and trade counters have joints that take trolleys, foot traffic and scrubber-driers, and an open, grimy joint line looks poor as well as catching wheels. A neat, flush fill makes the floor easier to clean and look after. We work on forklift and pallet-truck routes, joints along racking aisles and saw-cut induced joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are a rough ride across broken joints and chipped and spalling edges along forklift routes. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Ingrams Green tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Around smaller places such as Ingrams Green, floor joints are often in barns and farm buildings turned into workshops, stores and offices. Whether it’s a farm store turned workshop or a storage unit, the joints need a product that suits the traffic.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

What we are called out for in Ingrams Green
An ageing filler or sealant can go brittle and split especially under daily scrubbing and traffic. Once it has gone hard or come loose, it protects nothing.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Cracked and crumbling joint fill
- Sealant pulled out along a truck route
- Loading bay joints breaking down
- Drivers complaining about joints on a route
Office parks like Midhurst Business Centre (2.1 miles east of Ingrams Green) have decks, ramps and clad elevations whose joints take movement every day.
Comparing quotes
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
What we can’t put right
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:
- Spalled arrises, which need an edge repair first
- Damaged or worn floor coatings and screeds
- Cracks across panels caused by settlement or overload
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How a job runs
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work usually takes between a day and a number of days, set by the joint lengths, the edge condition and the phasing you need, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. If others near Ingrams Green need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- First, the zones and order of work are agreed with you.
- We point out joints whose edges need repairing first.
- We clear each run back to clean concrete.
- The chosen filler or sealant goes in flush with the slab.
- You get a time for each zone to reopen.
Getting the site ready
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Make sure the joints can be reached

Ingrams Green: questions and answers
Can you work at a site such as Midhurst Business Centre, by Ingrams Green?
Yes, sites like Midhurst Business Centre are within our area, along with the rest of Ingrams Green. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Midhurst Community Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, as many construction sites ask for.
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 it all comes out first.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
What happens if it’s left?
An open joint is a modest filling job while its edges are sound. Wait until the edges have spalled and the concrete needs repairing before the joint can be filled, with longer closures to match. Older rural buildings around Ingrams Green move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
