When something else is needed

Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:

  • Uneven floors that need grinding or levelling
  • Unstable slabs moving under traffic
  • Spalled arrises, which need an edge repair first

Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we seal

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

Why deal with it now?

While the arrises are intact, filling a joint is straightforward. Wait until the edges have spalled and the concrete needs repairing before the joint can be filled, with longer closures to match. Converted and older buildings near places like Little Wakering tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

Take a look at how commercial sealant jobs are priced or our accreditations and insurance.

How the quote is worked out

What shapes the price:

  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • The product specified
  • Joint width, depth and condition
  • Whether the work must be split into stages

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

Details that help us quote

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

  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings

Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Little Wakering

As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we are straightforward to vet for your supplier list. We are fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.

We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.

How a job runs

Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it. If others near Little Wakering need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. We walk the floor and mark up joint widths, edge damage and traffic routes.
  2. The treatment and the zones are set out in a fixed quote.
  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.

What we need from you

  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings
  • Tell staff and tenants when we will be in

Warehouse floors and decks around Little Wakering

With the shore within about 2 miles, Little Wakering counts as a coastal location. Near the sea, external slabs, ramps and decks see salt air and driven rain as well as their usual loads, which is why split joints are worth sealing before the edges deteriorate. Rainfall across the South East, Little Wakering included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, while winter salting gets into any joint left open.

For an occupier at a site such as Star Lane Industrial Estate, 0.5 miles to the south of Little Wakering, the joints at loading doors and dock levellers normally see the hardest wear. For estates staff at a university like University of Essex, 3.6 miles to the south-west of Little Wakering, building and paving joints are part of the planned maintenance list. Hospital campuses such as Wellesley Hospital (2.7 miles west of Little Wakering) grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old.

Little Wakering is about 2 miles north of Shoeburyness, in Essex. We cover Little Wakering, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else. Little Wakering is one of 644 places we cover in Essex for floor joints. London is covered too, some 38 miles away.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Your questions answered

Our building in Little Wakering is near the coast: does that change the sealant?

It can. Wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are harder on external joints. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.

Is a smaller place like Little Wakering outside your area?

Not at all. Little Wakering is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Are you insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.

Do you hold CHAS accreditation?

Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.

Is it normal for joint filler to separate?

Separation usually comes from slab shrinkage, poor preparation or the wrong product. We diagnose the cause before suggesting a fix.

Do you seal on top of existing sealant?

No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
