Building owners, agents and FMs in Old Ford

Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Sites in Old Ford can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Greater London.

Floor joint sealing in Old Ford

A working floor can rarely be closed for days on end, 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 so the rest of the operation keeps going. We work on retail and showroom floors, saw-cut induced joints and loading bays, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are trucks and loads jolting over damaged joints and a gap opening alongside old joint filler. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Old Ford, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.

Areas such as a loading bay or car park deck in Old Ford normally have to stay in use. Joints are done in sections, with bays coned off one after another, so the site keeps operating.

A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. Should something we installed fail, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll come back to it.

Aftercare for building managers

Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:

  • Keep grit out of unfilled joints in the meantime
  • Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets
  • Check joint lines on busy aisles regularly
  • Put loading bays at the top of the list

Young concrete carries on shrinking, so some fillers part slightly from one face. That is common and is typically dealt with by topping up once the slab has settled down in most cases.

Regular inspection catches failing fills before the edges go. We can quote a programme that starts with the busiest areas and keeps on top of the rest.

Honest limits

Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:

  • Level or flatness problems across the floor
  • Structural cracking in the slab
  • A floor that rocks at the joints, which needs a structural fix

Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.

Where we work in Old Ford

  • Retail and showroom floors
  • Construction joints
  • Forklift and pallet-truck routes
  • Loading bays
  • Saw-cut induced joints
  • Joints along racking aisles

What sets the cost

To price the job, we consider:

  • How much existing material needs removing
  • How much there is to seal
  • The site’s rules and procedures
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants

A quote for floor joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Call for a quote.

What to include in your enquiry

Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:

  • The product your specification calls for
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • The postcode of the building
  • Access details, including height

Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with what you know.

How a job runs

We follow your site rules from the start: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we are cleared to begin, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, and parking near a job is rarely simple. Let us know about any on-site parking or loading arrangements when you send the job details.

  1. Each area is assessed for joint width, arris damage and the wheels that cross it.
  2. The quote fixes the price, names the filler or sealant and shows how the floor will be zoned.
  3. Old filler, debris and contamination are cut or routed out back to clean concrete.
  4. Dust is sucked out of the joint and a primer used if the product data sheet asks for one.
  5. We fill each joint to depth and finish it flush so wheels roll straight across.
  6. The area is handed back once it has cured enough to take traffic.

What we need from you

  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings
  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
  • Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs

Ask for a quote

Every quote starts with the facts: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Share whatever details you have and we will fill any gaps with a visit.

FAQs: Old Ford

Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?

Yes. Booked loading bays, goods lifts and permit-to-work systems are normal for London jobs. Share the building’s contractor rules and we’ll work to them. We allow for the ULEZ, which covers every borough

Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Mile End Hospital?

Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it.

Do you work in Old Ford?

Yes. We cover Old Ford, and you can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us to get started.

How do you choose the sealant?

Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.

Is the floor joint work guaranteed?

There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we hold public liability insurance.

How do we get a quote for floor joints?

Send details through our quote form or by email and tell us what runs on the floor. A fixed quote follows with the product and phasing set out.

What we’re called out for in Old Ford

Floor joints collect dust, oil, curing compound and cleaning residue. If the faces aren’t taken back to clean concrete first the new filler can’t stay bonded.

If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:

  • Sealant pulled out along a truck route
  • Saw-cut joints left open and packed with grit
  • Joint edges breaking up under truck wheels
  • Grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor

Centres like Stratford Centre, 1 mile to the north-east of Old Ford, have mall floors and service decks whose joints carry steady traffic.

Before you book anyone

  • Their pre-qualification and accreditations
  • Proof of insurance
  • Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
  • Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?

Choosing a commercial sealant contractor

Floors, slabs and movement joints in Old Ford

In London, decks, bays and service yards normally have to keep running, so the work is broken into short sections agreed with the building manager. Less than 3 miles from Old Ford there are at least three named estates and business parks. Floors, loading bays and yards on sites like these are where floor and movement joints work hardest.

For an occupier at a site such as Old Ford Trading Estate, which lies west of Old Ford, the joints at loading doors and dock levellers typically see the hardest wear. Campuses like Arden University Stratford Campus, 0.7 miles north-east of Old Ford, mix old and new buildings, with movement joints wherever they meet.
