Floor joint sealing for commercial buildings in Kentsboro
Before quoting, we look at what the floor is telling us: joint widths, whether the joints are still opening, what runs over them and how the edges have held up. From that we choose between a semi-rigid filler and a more flexible sealant, area by area where it needs to be. If you have loading bay joints breaking down and untidy open joints in a retail unit, we can put it right. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Kentsboro is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Halls, schools and small commercial buildings near places like Kentsboro have movement joints in brick, block and concrete too. They tend to be overlooked until something leaks or cracks.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Commercial clients in Kentsboro
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we’re straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
Different surfaces, different methods
Forklift and pallet-truck routes
Open route joints are hard on equipment and drivers. Filling them gives a smoother run and saves the edges.
Loading bays and dock areas
Bays can be treated one or two at a time so goods in and out carry on. Your site hours and access windows set the order.
Looking after the joints
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Tell us about strong cleaning chemicals before we quote
- Sweep debris out of open joints until they can be filled
- Start with the dock areas, where joints fail soonest
- Record damaged joints with a photo and a location
Dragged forks and pallets gouge joints and edges alike. Even a well-filled joint can be damaged by steel scraping along it if it keeps happening.
Edges tend to break slowly at first, then quickly. Once the first piece is out, wheels drop further and hit harder so early treatment saves a lot of trouble.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Kentsboro
Pallet-truck and forklift wheels concentrate weight on a tiny contact patch. Where a joint is open, the wheel dips and strikes the far edge and those knocks chip the edge apart bit by bit.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Loading bay joints breaking down
- Brittle joint filler breaking up
- A gap opening alongside old joint filler
- Flexible sealant torn out by wheels
For floors and slabs around Kentsboro, the product is chosen for the traffic and the movement at each joint.

Floors, slabs and movement joints in Kentsboro
Kentsboro 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 gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints. At about 68 miles from central London, Kentsboro is within reach of the capital. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London.
For an estate such as Andover War Memorial Hospital, 5 miles north-east of Kentsboro, the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time.
Kentsboro is about 5 miles south-west of Andover, in Hampshire. We cover commercial sites throughout Kentsboro, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. Our Hampshire coverage takes in 723 places. For work in that direction, see our Southampton page.

Your questions answered
Will our site in Kentsboro have to close for joint sealing?
Usually not: we work in sections and hand each one back once it has cured. The phasing plan comes with the quote.
Is Kentsboro off your patch?
No. Places such as Kentsboro are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
How long does a job like this take?
It depends on the scope, but the work usually takes anything from a day for one loading bay to several days for a large floor, split into phases. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
How a job runs
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed before the next one starts. For work around Kentsboro, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We agree the traffic routes and phasing with your site team.
- We point out joints whose edges need repairing first.
- We clear each run back to clean concrete.
- We fill the joints with the agreed product, finished level.
- Each area is handed back when ready for traffic.
Before we start on site
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Agree which areas must stay open

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.

Leave it or put it right?
Not every joint needs stripping out completely. If old material is sound on one face and only a fine gap has opened, it may not all have to come out and the quote shows which approach suits each run. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Kentsboro. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
