About our floor joint sealing in Old Alresford
Mastic Doctor has worked on joints in commercial buildings for over 20 years. Our CSCS-carded applicators follow your site induction and rules, and we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with public liability insurance in place. Completed joints come with a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. If you are dealing with failing joints at loading bays and dock doors and joint edges breaking up under truck wheels, we can help, whatever the surface. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Old Alresford, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Jobs around smaller places like Old Alresford are planned so the whole job is done in one visit. Tell us the joint widths if you can, and what drives or walks over them.
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.

What the job involves on each surface
Retail and showroom floors
Retail work is phased around trading. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Loading bays and dock areas
Bays can be treated one or two at a time so goods in and out carry on. Your site hours and access windows set the order.
Owners, agents and contractors
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
Joints that move: notes for Old Alresford
Central London is about 54 miles from Old Alresford. Distribution warehouses and industrial estates are common around the motorway corridors that serve the capital. Rainfall across the South East, Old Alresford included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Outside joints in yards and car parks still have to be dry before sealing, and where de-icing salt is spread in winter, open joints let it in.
For a school such as Perins School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays.

What happens if it’s left?
Dirt and spillage gather in open joints, out of reach of the floor cleaner. In shops, showrooms and clean production areas that matters for hygiene and appearance. Flush, filled joints leave nothing for cleaners to dig out. Older rural buildings around Old Alresford move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Why us?
- Constructionline member for supplier checks
- Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
- Sealing commercial buildings since 2005
- Fully insured
Keeping the joints sound
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Remind operators to lift rather than drag
- Hold traffic back until the product has cured
- Start with the dock areas, where joints fail soonest
- Make joint checks part of your floor inspections
Young concrete carries on shrinking, so some fillers part slightly from one face. That is common and is normally dealt with by topping up once the slab has settled down in most cases.
Regular inspection catches failing fills before the edges go. A phased plan, worst routes first, spreads the work out so nothing is left to fail.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. For work around Old Alresford, we aim to finish in one visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- A floor survey records every joint, its edges and what crosses it.
- You receive a fixed quote showing products and phasing.
- Old fill and packed debris come out until both faces are sound.
- We extract the dust and prime the faces if the product needs it.
- Filler or sealant is placed to depth and finished flush.
- We hand each phase back when it can take traffic.
Before we start on site
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Old Alresford: questions and answers
Is a smaller place like Old Alresford outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
What documents will you need to give us for a job in Old Alresford?
We will confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
How many days will you need on site?
That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit normally takes a day or more, depending on the metres of joint and how many zones the floor is split into. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
Is it normal for joint filler to separate?
Separation normally comes from slab shrinkage, poor preparation or the wrong product. We diagnose the cause before suggesting a fix.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
What guarantee do you give on joint filling?
Every job has our 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later slab movement or damage from impacts.
How long do sealant joints last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
