When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Structural cracking in the slab
- Worn screed or surface finishes
- Level or flatness problems across the floor
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will tell you honestly.

Floor joint sealing for commercial buildings in Northfields
Few warehouses can shut a whole floor while joints are done, so the work is split into zones and treated one area at a time. Share your site hours and access windows and the programme is built around them, with goods still moving in the areas we aren’t in. We work on joints along racking aisles, saw-cut induced joints and loading bays, and what we are called in for most is cracked and crumbling joint fill and soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Northfields it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Distribution and trade units on London’s edges, and deck car parks across the city, hold most of its floor and slab joints. Planning a job in Northfields means thinking about access, loading times and the ULEZ as well as the joints.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Why it’s worth doing now in Northfields
While the arrises are intact, filling a joint is straightforward. Left until they break, it needs an edge repair before any filling can start, with longer closures to match. In a London building, a failed joint rarely affects only one party. Putting it right early is less disruptive than dealing with the consequences.
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Maintenance after handover
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Stop forks and pallets being dragged across joints
- Keep trucks off new joints until we say they’re ready
- Walk the main routes and inspect joint lines on a regular cycle
- Treat loading bay joints first if they’re failing
Once cured, the joints get cleaned along with the slab. If you use strong chemicals or hot-water washing, mention it when we quote so we choose something that tolerates them.
Edges tend to break slowly at first, then quickly. Each chip makes the drop deeper and the next impact harder, so it pays to act at the first signs.
Cost factors for floor joints
To price the job, we consider:
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- The site’s rules and procedures
- The total length or number of joints
Pricing floor joints depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you’re working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.
Sending details for a quote
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Your programme or deadline
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
How a job runs
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself usually takes a day or more, depending on the metres of joint and how many zones the floor is split into, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For a job in Northfields, access comes first: booked loading, goods lifts, the building’s permit system and a spot to keep materials. Give us the hours we can be on site and we will schedule to suit.
- We walk the floor and mark up joint widths, edge damage and traffic routes.
- The treatment and the zones are set out in a fixed quote.
- Each joint is cut or routed back to clean, sound concrete.
- Dust is vacuumed out and primer applied where specified.
- Filler or sealant is placed to depth and finished flush.
- Zones reopen once cured and the work moves on.
What we need from you
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

Semi-rigid joint fillers
A semi-rigid fill can separate along one side while a slab is still shrinking. That is normally dealt with by topping up later and we’ll flag it at quote stage.
Isolation joints at walls and columns
Perimeter and column joints get forgotten and fill up with dirt. We record them with the rest of the floor joints.

At places like West Cross Industrial Park, which lies south-west of Northfields, joints are sealed a section at a time so operations carry on.

Questions about Northfields
Do you work in London buildings with loading restrictions?
Yes, we plan every London job around the building’s own access rules. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Clayponds Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Which is better for warehouse joints, filler or sealant?
There isn’t one answer for a whole floor. Where hard wheels cross, a semi-rigid filler is usually right, and movement joints or perimeters need something flexible. You’ll see the choice for each area in the quote.
Are you insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
Is it normal for joint filler to separate?
Young concrete carries on shrinking for a long time, so a semi-rigid filler can part from one face. It is normally dealt with by topping up.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
