Your questions answered
Is a smaller place like Nettlestead Green outside your area?
Not at all. Nettlestead Green is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Oakwood Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
In many cases, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
What happens if the joint edges are damaged?
Edge condition is recorded when we look at the floor. Where they have broken away, we’ll tell you before quoting the filling so the filling isn’t wasted.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
Which is better for warehouse joints, filler or sealant?
The answer comes from the traffic and the joint’s movement. Trafficked joints on truck routes usually need a semi-rigid filler to support the edges and joints with more movement take a flexible sealant.
Floor joint sealing in Nettlestead Green, done properly
We diagnose the floor first rather than guessing at a product: 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. Site teams most often ask us about flexible sealant torn out by wheels and drivers complaining about joints on a route, on construction joints, saw-cut induced joints and joints along racking aisles. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Nettlestead Green from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
Jobs around smaller places like Nettlestead Green are planned so the whole job is done in one visit. Note joint widths and the traffic that uses them, and we will take it from there.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application.

Slabs, ramps and loading bays in Nettlestead Green
Nettlestead Green is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. External joints still wait for dry conditions, while winter salting gets into any joint left open. Nettlestead Green is about 28 miles from central London. The roads out of London are lined with trade parks and distribution sheds.
Campuses like University for the Creative Arts - Maidstone, 4.7 miles to the north-east of Nettlestead Green, mix old and new buildings, with movement joints wherever they meet. Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Mereworth Business Centre (1.8 miles north of Nettlestead Green): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time.
Nettlestead Green is about 6 miles south-west of Maidstone, in Kent. Looking for floor joint sealing in Nettlestead Green? We can help, as we do across Kent.

Common problems we fix in Nettlestead Green
A slab keeps shrinking for a long time after it is cast, and saw-cut joints give that shrinkage a planned place to crack. As the panels contract, the joints widen, and a filler placed early can part company with one face.
Clients normally get in touch after noticing something like this:
- Open saw cuts full of debris
- Broken arrises where pallet trucks cross
- Loading bay joints breaking down
- A gap opening alongside old joint filler
A healthcare site such as Oakwood Hospital, 4.2 miles to the north-east of Nettlestead Green, depends on car parks, ramps and service yards whose joints take traffic all day.

What happens if it’s left?
Painting or coating straight over joints rarely lasts. The joints have to be filled or sealed as joints, whether or not the floor is coated. Around Nettlestead Green, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Quoting for work in Nettlestead Green
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Any access equipment needed
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- The type of building and who uses it
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- The product your specification calls for
Pricing a project or setting a maintenance budget? We’ll quote against your scope and drawings you can plan around. For a chat about it beforehand, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
General trades versus a specialist
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. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
When something else is needed
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
- Uneven floors that need grinding or levelling
- Spalled arrises, which need an edge repair first
If you are not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
