Maintenance after handover
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Treat loading bay joints first if they’re failing
- Hold traffic back until the product has cured
- Keep grit out of unfilled joints in the meantime
- Mention any aggressive cleaning regime at quote stage
Once cured, the joints get cleaned along with the slab. Tell us about aggressive cleaning products or hot washing at quote stage so we choose something that tolerates them.
While the concrete edges are intact, it’s a filling job. After the edges go, repairs come into it, with more downtime and more disruption.
General trades versus a specialist
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Questions about Ludgershall
Do you cover business parks and estates near Ludgershall, such as Rushbeds Industrial Estate?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Ludgershall, Rushbeds Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Is a smaller place like Ludgershall outside your area?
No. Places such as Ludgershall are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
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.
When can forklifts run over new joint filler?
Cure times vary with the product and the conditions. You will get a reopening time for each area before we start.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Each site asks for different documents, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Is colour matching possible?
It 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.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
What we can’t put right
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we are upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- A floor that rocks at the joints, which needs a structural fix
- Broken concrete either side of the joint
- Cracks across panels caused by settlement or overload
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Joints that move: notes for Ludgershall
The 3 miles around Ludgershall take in two named trading estates, business parks or retail parks. Their warehouses, yards and car parks are exactly where joints take the most punishment. Ludgershall lies roughly 47 miles out from central London. The South East has large numbers of industrial estates and warehouses along the motorway corridors; their floors carry heavy traffic every shift.
For an occupier at a site such as Rushbeds Industrial Estate, 1.5 miles south of Ludgershall, the joints at loading doors and dock levellers usually see the hardest wear. Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Lawn Farm Business Centre (2.6 miles north-east of Ludgershall): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time.
Ludgershall is about 6 miles south-east of Bicester, in Buckinghamshire. Across the HP18 postcode area, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Ludgershall is one of 308 places we cover in Buckinghamshire. For work in that direction, see our Oxford page (11 miles or so).
Commercial sites across HP18 are covered for floor joints. We cover commercial and managed buildings on High Street, Salters Lane and Bicester Road and the roads nearby. If your building is just outside Ludgershall, we cover Piddington (1 mile west), Brill (2 miles south), Grendon Underwood (2 miles north-east), Blackthorn (3 miles north-west) and Edgcott (3 miles north). Further afield, our area takes in Aylesbury (10 miles east), Buckingham (10 miles north), Elmhurst (10 miles east), Southcourt (10 miles east), Princes Risborough (13 miles south-east) and Haydon Hill (9 miles east).

When to call us in Ludgershall
A soft, flexible sealant on a forklift route can’t hold the arrises up and the edges fail regardless. It can go the other way too: a rigid fill in a joint that is still opening cracks or debonds.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Joint fill separating from the concrete
- Grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor
- Unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit
- Flexible sealant torn out by wheels
Hospital campuses such as Bicester Community Hospital, 5.8 miles north-west of Ludgershall, grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old.
What your quote should include
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Proof of insurance
Why deal with it now?
Holding off until the whole floor can close can take a long time. Zone by zone, the worst aisles can be dealt with now and the remainder follows on a plan that suits you. Halls, stores and units around places like Ludgershall may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
