Work for main contractors and building owners
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
Surface by surface
Retail and showroom floors
In retail, joints take trolleys, castors and cleaning machines rather than forklifts. We pick a filler or sealant to suit and the finish matters as much as the performance.
Flexible floor sealants
Flexible floor sealants come in several colours so ask if the colour matters.
Where floor joints take the most wear near Margaretting
Margaretting is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. 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. Margaretting lies roughly 26 miles out from central London. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London, and their floor joints take forklift and pallet-truck traffic all day.
If you manage units on an estate such as Widford Industrial Estate (2.7 miles north-east of Margaretting), the floor joints under forklifts and pallet trucks and the slab joints in the yard are the ones to watch. Hospital campuses such as Chelmsford and Essex Hospital (to the north-east of Margaretting) grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old. Campuses like Writtle University College Cow Watering Campus, 3.2 miles north of Margaretting, mix old and new buildings, with movement joints wherever they meet.

Honest limits
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Joint edges that have already broken away, which need repairing before filling (we’ll tell you if so)
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
- A floor that is out of level for the racking or trucks
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Questions about Margaretting
Do you cover business parks and estates near Margaretting, such as Widford Industrial Estate?
Yes. Our area takes in Margaretting and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Widford Industrial Estate included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Chelmsford and Essex Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Is colour matching possible?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Why has the filler pulled away from one side?
Young concrete carries on shrinking for a long time and a stiff filler can separate down one side. A top-up normally puts it right.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
Do you work in Margaretting?
Yes. Margaretting falls within our area, and the simplest way to start is to call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, which many sites require.
When to bring in a specialist
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
From enquiry to sign-off
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. If others near Margaretting need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- We walk the floor and mark up joint widths, edge damage and traffic routes.
- You receive a fixed quote showing products and phasing.
- Old fill and packed debris come out until both faces are sound.
- We extract the dust and prime the faces if the product needs it.
- The joint is filled to its specified depth and trimmed level.
- We hand each phase back when it can take traffic.
Preparing the site
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Let building users know which areas are affected
