Floor joint sealing across Knockholt

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. If others near Knockholt need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. A floor survey records every joint, its edges and what crosses it.
  2. You receive a fixed quote showing products and phasing.
  3. Each joint is cut or routed back to clean, sound concrete.
  4. Dust is vacuumed out and primer applied where specified.
  5. Filler or sealant is placed to depth and finished flush.
  6. We hand each phase back when it can take traffic.

Before we start on site

  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Send any specification or drawings in advance
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot

Getting a fixed quote

Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.

Why it’s worth doing now in Knockholt

A floor coating laid over open joints soon cracks along the joint lines. The joints have to be filled or sealed as joints before or alongside any coating work. Older rural buildings around Knockholt move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you are ready.

  • Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months

  • CHAS accredited

Looking after the joints

A few simple habits keep the new joints working:

  • Tell us about strong cleaning chemicals before we quote
  • Walk the main routes and inspect joint lines on a regular cycle
  • Clear packed debris from open joints regularly
  • Hold traffic back until the product has cured

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 before it becomes a repair.

Cost factors for floor joints

What shapes the price:

  • The product specified
  • Whether the work must be split into stages
  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation
  • Access and working height

The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.

Details that help us quote

A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:

  • Whether an asbestos survey exists
  • The product your specification calls for
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, call 01277 525 020 or email us.

What we can’t put right

Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:

  • Broken concrete either side of the joint
  • Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
  • Uneven floors that need grinding or levelling

If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Construction joints
  • Saw-cut induced joints
  • Joints along racking aisles
  • Forklift and pallet-truck routes
  • Loading bays
  • Retail and showroom floors

What we are called out for in Knockholt

Older fills harden, shrink and crack with age especially under daily scrubbing and traffic. Once it has gone hard or come loose, it protects nothing.

Most enquiries start with something like this:

  • Flexible sealant torn out by wheels
  • Drivers complaining about joints on a route
  • Broken arrises where pallet trucks cross
  • Open saw cuts full of debris

Hospitals like Orpington Hospital (to the north of Knockholt) have multi-storey or surface car parks whose joints carry vehicles round the clock.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
  • How the existing material will be dealt with
  • Their public liability cover
  • Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint

Questions we are asked in Knockholt

Is Knockholt off your patch?

No. Places such as Knockholt are covered as much as the big towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Is North Downs Business Park, near Knockholt, within your area?

Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Knockholt, North Downs Business Park among them, are all within reach. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

Do you repair broken joint edges?

Filling against broken edges doesn’t last. If the arrises have spalled, we’ll say they need repair before filling and set out how that affects the job.

Is the floor joint work guaranteed?

Every job has our 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later slab movement or damage from impacts.

Are you CHAS accredited?

Yes. We’re CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.

Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?

Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, which many sites require.

What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?

The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.

Floors, slabs and movement joints in Knockholt

Knockholt 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 where de-icing salt is spread in winter, open joints let it in. Knockholt lies roughly 16 miles out from central London. The roads out of London are lined with trade parks and distribution sheds, and their floor joints take forklift and pallet-truck traffic all day.

For buildings at a park such as North Downs Business Park, 2.2 miles east of Knockholt, brick and panel movement joints are easy to forget until one leaks.
