About our floor joint sealing in North Street
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. From that we choose between a semi-rigid filler and a more flexible sealant and the answer can differ from one zone to the next. Site teams most often ask us about brittle joint filler breaking up and open saw cuts full of debris, on saw-cut induced joints, loading bays and retail and showroom floors. Most enquiries from North Street 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.
For a site near North Street, 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. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Leave it or put it right?
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. Halls, stores and units around places like North Street may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain how it’s made up.

Traffic, movement and joints around North Street
North Street sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. External movement joints in car parks, ramps and yards near the coast take salt and wind-driven rain on top of traffic, which is why split joints are worth sealing before the edges deteriorate. At about 30 miles from central London, North Street is within reach of the capital. The South East has large numbers of industrial estates and warehouses along the motorway corridors.
Campuses like University of Greenwich - Medway, 4 miles south-west of North Street, mix old and new buildings, with movement joints wherever they meet. Hospital campuses such as Medway Maritime Hospital (to the south-west of North Street) grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old.
North Street is about 5 miles north of Gillingham, in Medway. Anywhere in ME3, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Across Medway, 54 places are covered, North Street among them. There’s a separate page for London, about 30 miles away.

Building owners, agents and FMs in North Street
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Your questions answered
Is North Street off your patch?
Not at all. North Street is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Can being near the sea in North Street affect the sealant we need?
It can. Wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are harder on external joints. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
How long will the new sealant last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, tell us and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Different surfaces, different methods
Isolation joints at walls and columns
Joints at walls and columns are often missed when floors are sealed, and they collect dust and debris. We record them with the rest of the floor joints.
Forklift and pallet-truck routes
Trucks running over open joints wear wheels and shake loads. A filled joint lets wheels roll across and protects the floor.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Jobs in and around smaller places like North Street are usually planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We look at joint widths, edge condition and the traffic on each route.
- The quote fixes the price, names the filler or sealant and shows how the floor will be zoned.
- We remove failed material and packed debris until sound concrete is exposed on both faces.
- Dust is sucked out of the joint and a primer used if the product data sheet asks for one.
- We fill each joint to depth and finish it flush so wheels roll straight across.
- We tell you when each zone can carry trucks again and move on to the next.
What we need from you
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
Getting a fixed quote
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.

What we can’t put right
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Cracks across panels caused by settlement or overload
- Damaged or worn floor coatings and screeds
- Level or flatness problems across the floor
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think before you book.
