When it isn’t the sealant
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Joint edges that have already broken away, which need repairing before filling (we’ll tell you if so)
- A floor that rocks at the joints, which needs a structural fix
- Cracks across panels caused by settlement or overload
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Floor joint sealing in Kintbury, done properly
It isn’t only heavy industry. Shops, showrooms and trade counters have joints that take trolleys, foot traffic and scrubber-driers, where a gappy, dirty joint looks untidy and snags castors. A flush, well-finished joint tidies the whole floor. We work on forklift and pallet-truck routes, loading bays and retail and showroom floors, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit and joint fill separating from the concrete. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Kintbury is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Smaller community and commercial buildings around Kintbury have their own movement joints in walls and floors. They tend to be overlooked until something leaks or cracks.
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.

On site: what to expect
Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. If others near Kintbury need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- First comes a walk of the floor to record joint sizes, broken edges and traffic routes.
- The quote fixes the price, names the filler or sealant and shows how the floor will be zoned.
- Each joint is cleared of old fill and dirt and taken back to clean, sound edges.
- Dust is sucked out of the joint and a primer used if the product data sheet asks for one.
- Filler or sealant goes in to the right depth and is finished flush with the slab.
- Each phase reopens when the product is ready for wheels, then we start the next.
Before we start on site
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Let us know about inductions and permits

Advice
Common questions from Kintbury clients
Will our site in Kintbury have to close for joint sealing?
In the majority of cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. Tell us which hours and entrances we can use and we will plan from there.
Is Kintbury too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
How do you choose the sealant?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Why has the filler pulled away from one side?
Young concrete carries on shrinking for a long time, so a semi-rigid filler can part from one face. It is usually dealt with by topping up.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
How do we get a quote for floor joints?
A rough joint length, a few photos and a site plan let us give a quick quote. For larger floors, a site visit is often best, and you can ring 01277 525 020 or email us to arrange it.
Why it’s worth doing now in Kintbury
Holding off until the whole floor can close can take a long time. Phased in zones, the busiest routes can be treated first and the remainder follows on a plan that suits you. Converted and older buildings near places like Kintbury tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
Aftercare for building managers
For the best life from the joints:
- Allow for topping up joints as a new slab settles
- Respect the cure time before traffic returns
- Make joint checks part of your floor inspections
- Start with the dock areas, where joints fail soonest
Problems inside the 12-month guarantee period are ours to put right. Beyond that, an inspection once or twice a year catches failing joints early.
Grit in an open joint does damage every time a wheel crosses it. Filling it ends that cycle while it is still a straightforward job.

Surface by surface
Flexible floor sealants
Polyurethane floor sealants are available in a range of colours so ask if the colour matters.
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.
