About our floor joint sealing in Newland Green
Sometimes the concrete either side of a joint has already spalled. A filler laid against broken edges has nothing sound to grip, so if the edges need repair before any filling, we will say so and explain how it affects the programme. If you have soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints and broken arrises where pallet trucks cross, we can put it right. Most enquiries from Newland Green start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
Jobs around smaller places like Newland Green are planned so the whole job is done in one visit, with the right materials on hand. Tell us the joint widths if you can, and what drives or walks over them.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

General trades versus a specialist
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
Common problems we fix in Newland Green
Pallet-truck and forklift wheels concentrate weight on a tiny contact patch. Crossing an open joint, the wheel drops and knocks the opposite arris and those knocks chip the edge apart bit by bit.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Trucks and loads jolting over damaged joints
- Joint fill separating from the concrete
- Scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor
- Dock area joints that have failed first
Schools like Egerton Church of England Primary School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly.

Common questions from Newland Green clients
Is a smaller place like Newland Green outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Will our site in Newland Green have to close for joint sealing?
In the majority of cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. Tell us which hours and entrances we can use and we’ll plan from there.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, for external work. 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.
Is it normal for joint filler to separate?
On newer slabs, the concrete keeps shrinking after the joints are filled and a stiff filler can separate down one side. A top-up normally puts it right.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Can you fill joints where the arrises have spalled?
Edge condition is recorded when we look at the floor. Damaged edges are flagged up front so the filling isn’t wasted.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Photograph any joint that starts to chip
- Check joint lines on busy aisles regularly
- Start with the dock areas, where joints fail soonest
- Tell us about strong cleaning chemicals before we quote
If a joint we filled starts to break up within 12 months, tell us and we will arrange a look. Beyond that, an inspection once or twice a year catches failing joints early.
Grit in an open joint does damage every time a wheel crosses it. Getting it filled stops the damage before it becomes a repair.
How a job runs
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before the next one starts. For a building around Newland Green, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- First, the zones and order of work are agreed with you.
- Any joints with broken edges are flagged before work starts.
- We clear each run back to clean concrete.
- We fill the joints with the agreed product, finished level.
- Each area is handed back when ready for traffic.
Before we start on site
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Forklift and pallet-truck routes
Joints on busy routes need a fill that sits flush and resists impact. We match the product to the wheel types and the traffic.
Construction joints
Day joints on busy routes are prone to edge damage. We look at how much they are moving before choosing the treatment.

Newland Green sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, and where de-icing salt is spread in winter, open joints let it in.
