Need floor joint sealing in Longstock?
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Floor joint sealing in Longstock
Before quoting, we look at what the floor is telling us: how wide the joints are, signs of ongoing movement, the wheel types crossing them and the state of the arrises. That tells us whether semi-rigid filler or flexible sealant suits each run and the answer can differ from one zone to the next. We work on forklift and pallet-truck routes, construction joints and joints along racking aisles, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are dock area joints that have failed first and flexible sealant torn out by wheels. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Longstock first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Smaller community and commercial buildings around Longstock have their own movement joints in walls and floors. They tend to be overlooked until something leaks or cracks.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

What we’re called out for in Longstock
Older fills harden, shrink and crack with age, particularly where cleaning machines and traffic work it daily. At that point it neither holds the edges nor keeps debris out.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor
- Unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit
- Sealant pulled out along a truck route
- Filler that has parted from one face
In a school such as Test Valley School, movement joints in brick, block and hall floors tend to be forgotten until they leak.

- How joint depth will be controlled

Warehouse floors and decks around Longstock
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Outside joints in yards and car parks still have to be dry before sealing, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint. Longstock lies roughly 65 miles out from central London. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London.
For an estate such as Andover War Memorial Hospital, 5.8 miles north of Longstock, the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time.

Quoting for work in Longstock
These are the things that shape the price:
- The total length or number of joints
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Phasing around occupants
- Any access equipment needed
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.
Details that help us quote
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- The type of building and who uses it
- Specification clauses that apply
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
A good quote starts with a clear picture: 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.

What we can’t put right
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Joint edges that have already broken away, which need repairing before filling (we will tell you if so)
- Worn screed or surface finishes
- Cracks across panels caused by settlement or overload
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Loading bays
- Saw-cut induced joints
- Retail and showroom floors
- Construction joints
- Forklift and pallet-truck routes
- Joints along racking aisles

Longstock: questions and answers
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Andover War Memorial Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Is a smaller place like Longstock outside your area?
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.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Do you guarantee industrial floor joints?
A 12-month guarantee covers the work we do. It applies to our workmanship rather than structural movement or accidental damage.
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, so you can decide how to proceed.
Why is there a gap next to the joint filler?
Separation usually comes from slab shrinkage, poor preparation or the wrong product. We diagnose the cause before suggesting a fix.
Surface by surface
Saw-cut induced joints
Sawn joints make up most of the joint length in a typical industrial floor. Each one is cleaned out and filled to the specified depth, finishing flush with the slab.
Forklift and pallet-truck routes
Main aisles and cross routes carry the most wheel movements and the joints on them break down first. A semi-rigid filler is common here because it supports the arrises under hard wheels.
