Floor joint sealing across Long Hanborough

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

Why act early in Long Hanborough

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. Over time, UV, weather and movement wear any sealant out. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.

Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.

What you get with us

  • 12 months’ guarantee on every job
  • Public liability insurance in place
  • A Constructionline member, so easy to vet
  • Work to your specification and the manufacturer’s guidance

Floor joint sealing in Long Hanborough, done properly

We work on warehouse aisles, dock areas, factory floors, retail units and showrooms. Each job is priced from the metres of joint, their condition and the access windows we get and the figure is fixed before work begins. If you have broken arrises where pallet trucks cross and loading bay joints breaking down, we can put it right. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Long Hanborough, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.

Rural business units around smaller places such as Long Hanborough often have new slabs laid inside older buildings. Joints in those slabs need a product suited to whatever runs over them, from pallet trucks to foot traffic.

A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. If an installation problem shows up, ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll arrange a return visit.

Looking after the joints

Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:

  • Photograph any joint that starts to chip
  • Respect the cure time before traffic returns
  • Put loading bays at the top of the list
  • Mention any aggressive cleaning regime at quote stage

Normal floor cleaning is fine once the product has cured. Tell us about aggressive cleaning products or hot washing at quote stage so the product suits them.

Treating joints while the arrises are sound keeps the work simple. After the edges go, repairs come into it, with more downtime and more disruption.

Questions we are asked in Long Hanborough

Does your area include sites such as Wroslyn Road Industrial Estate, near Long Hanborough?

Yes, sites like Wroslyn Road Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Long Hanborough. To start, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

Is Long Hanborough too small for you to travel to?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Do you offer coloured sealant?

That depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product 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. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.

Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?

Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.

Which is better for warehouse joints, filler or sealant?

It depends on the traffic and the movement. Trafficked joints on truck routes normally need a semi-rigid filler to support the edges, while joints that move more take a flexible sealant.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.

How a job runs

Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work usually takes a day for smaller units, with bigger warehouse floors programmed over several visits, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. What matters most for a job in Long Hanborough is a clear list of what needs doing. You will then get a fixed price for the work.

  1. We agree the traffic routes and phasing with your site team.
  2. Any joints with broken edges are flagged before work starts.
  3. Failed material and debris are removed and the joint cleaned.
  4. We fill the joints with the agreed product, finished level.
  5. Each area is handed back when ready for traffic.

Preparing the site

  • Move anything stored against the joints
  • Send any specification or drawings in advance
  • Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.

When to call us in Long Hanborough

Soft sealant in a heavily trafficked joint gives the edges little support and the edges fail regardless. It can go the other way too: a stiff filler in a joint that keeps moving splits or comes away from the sides.

Look out for the following:

  • A gap opening alongside old joint filler
  • Unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit
  • Flexible sealant torn out by wheels
  • Scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor

In a school such as Hanborough Manor CofE School, movement joints in brick, block and hall floors tend to be forgotten until they leak.

What your quote should include

  • Their approach to joint depth and backing
  • The named product and why it was chosen
  • What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
  • How the existing material will be dealt with
