Floor joint sealing across Lordington

Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Commercial clients in Lordington

Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.

How we handle floor joint sealing in Lordington

Some joints reach us with their edges already broken. Filling against a crumbled arris won’t hold for long, so we will tell you if the joint edges need repairing first and leave that decision with you. We work on retail and showroom floors, forklift and pallet-truck routes and joints along racking aisles, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints and drivers complaining about joints on a route. Whoever orders the work in Lordington, the brief is typically the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.

Around smaller places such as Lordington, floor joints are often in barns and farm buildings turned into workshops, stores and offices. Joints in those slabs take vehicles, trolleys and foot traffic, and need a filler or sealant to match.

Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

General trades versus a specialist

For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Jobs in and around smaller places like Lordington are usually planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.

  1. We look at joint widths, edge condition and the traffic on each route.
  2. The quote fixes the price, names the filler or sealant and shows how the floor will be zoned.
  3. Old filler, debris and contamination are cut or routed out back to clean concrete.
  4. We vacuum each run and prime it if the chosen product requires a primer.
  5. Filler or sealant goes in to the right depth and is finished flush with the slab.
  6. We tell you when each zone can carry trucks again and move on to the next.

Before we start on site

  • Let building users know which areas are affected
  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
  • Share your working hours and any access restrictions

Your questions answered

Is Lordington off your patch?

Not at all. Lordington is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Can you work on a hospital site such as Spire Hospital Portsmouth?

Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.

How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?

Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.

How long does a job like this take?

That varies with the scale of the job, but the work normally takes between a day and a number of days, set by the joint lengths, the edge condition and the phasing you need. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.

How do you choose the sealant?

Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.

How long do sealant joints last?

There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.

Leave it or put it right?

Dirt and spillage gather in open joints where scrubber-driers can’t get it out. Where the floor is on show or needs to be kept clean, that is a problem. Filled joints are far simpler to keep clean. Converted and older buildings near places like Lordington 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: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.

  • Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions

How the quote is worked out

A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:

  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation
  • Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
  • The total length or number of joints

Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Sending details for a quote

It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:

  • Your programme or deadline
  • The postcode of the building
  • How the joints are reached, and at what height
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings

Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. The first step is to phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with what you know.

Traffic, movement and joints around Lordington

Central London is about 55 miles from Lordington. Distribution warehouses and industrial estates are common around the motorway corridors that serve the capital. Rainfall across the South East, Lordington included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External joints still wait for dry conditions, and gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints.

Hospital campuses such as Spire Hospital Portsmouth (3 miles west of Lordington) grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old. Office parks like Hambrook Business Park (1.4 miles south of Lordington) have decks, ramps and clad elevations whose joints take movement every day. For a school such as Bourne Community College, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays.

Different surfaces, different methods

Forklift and pallet-truck routes

Open route joints are hard on equipment and drivers. Filling them gives a smoother run and protects the floor.

Retail and showroom floors

Retail joints see trolleys, footfall and scrubber-driers. We pick a filler or sealant to suit and the appearance is part of the brief.
