When it isn’t the sealant
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Worn screed or surface finishes
- Cracks across panels caused by settlement or overload
- Joint edges that have already broken away, which need repairing before filling (we will tell you if so)
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.

How we handle floor joint sealing in Norlington
Not every floor joint we treat is in a warehouse. Retail units, showrooms and trade counters have slab joints crossed by trolleys, footfall and cleaning machines, and an open, grimy joint line looks poor as well as catching wheels. A flush, well-finished joint tidies the whole floor. Most enquiries involve unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit and old filler gone hard, cracked or loose, across forklift and pallet-truck routes, loading bays and retail and showroom floors. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Norlington first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
For a site near Norlington, measurements and photos up front mean one trip where possible. Note joint widths and the traffic that uses them, and we’ll take it from there.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Leave it or put it right?
Open joints are where dirt collects, out of reach of the floor cleaner. Where the floor is on show or needs to be kept clean, that is a problem. Flush, filled joints leave nothing for cleaners to dig out. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Norlington, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Your questions answered
Is Norlington off your patch?
Not at all. Norlington is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Lewes Victoria Hospital?
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.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
What happens if the joint edges are damaged?
Filling against broken edges doesn’t last. We’ll tell you if the joint edges need repairing first, so you can decide how to proceed.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
How long will the new sealant 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.
What guarantee do you give on joint filling?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and the work is covered by public liability insurance.
When to call us in Norlington
Left open, joints fill with grit, wrap and wood fragments. That debris is hard and levers at the edges as wheels pass, speeding up the damage.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Loading bay joints breaking down
- Untidy open joints in a retail unit
- Brittle joint filler breaking up
- Sealant pulled out along a truck route
Across sites such as Caburn Enterprise Park, which lies east of Norlington, floor and movement joints can be sealed in phases so units keep working.
Before you book anyone
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Certain joints really need a specialist: 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.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
