Floor joint sealing in Old Netley: the local picture
Old Netley lies within about 2 miles of the sea. Coastal yards and decks give their joints salt and wet weather to deal with, not just wheels, so it pays to keep them sealed. At about 68 miles from central London, Old Netley is within reach of the capital. The roads out of London are lined with trade parks and distribution sheds.
Places like Hedge End Retail Park, 2 miles north of Old Netley, put trolleys over floor joints inside and cars over slab joints outside. Schools like Bursledon Church of England Infant School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly.
Old Netley is about 2 miles south-west of Hedge End, in Hampshire. Looking for floor joint sealing in Old Netley? We can help, as we do across Hampshire. Across Hampshire, 723 places are covered, including Old Netley.

Floor joint sealing in Old Netley, done properly
Before quoting, we look at what the floor is telling us: how wide the joints are, signs of ongoing movement, the wheel types crossing them and the state of the arrises. That tells us whether semi-rigid filler or flexible sealant suits each run and the answer can differ from one zone to the next. If you’re dealing with chipped and spalling edges along forklift routes and brittle joint filler breaking up, we can help, on joints along racking aisles, loading bays and construction joints alike. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Old Netley is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
In and around smaller places like Old Netley, the concrete floors we see are often in converted farm buildings, small workshops and storage units. Whether it’s a farm store turned workshop or a storage unit, the joints need a product that suits the traffic.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Owners, agents and contractors
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.
Building owners and managing agents use us on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
Different surfaces, different methods
Retail and showroom floors
In retail, joints take trolleys, castors and cleaning machines rather than forklifts. We pick a filler or sealant to suit and the appearance is part of the brief.
Isolation joints at walls and columns
Where racking or plant sits near column joints, access is agreed before we start.
Why act early in Old Netley
Duct tape or a general builders’ sealant can seem to buy some time. Neither is made to carry wheels, and it typically ends up dragged across the floor. A product chosen for the traffic and movement does the job once. Older rural buildings around Old Netley move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

Common questions from Old Netley clients
Is Old Netley too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Is a hospital such as Fareham Community Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Can you fill joints where the arrises have spalled?
A filler needs sound edges to grip. If the arrises have spalled, we will say they need repair before filling, so you can decide how to proceed.
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, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Should floor joints be filled or sealed?
We decide joint by joint. Hard wheels need edge support, which points to a semi-rigid filler and perimeter or movement joints need flexibility. The quote sets out what goes where.

Common problems we fix in Old Netley
Joints near dock doors see colder air, rain blown in and water off vehicles, as well as the tightest turning loads. That is usually where joint failure starts.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Flexible sealant torn out by wheels
- A gap opening alongside old joint filler
- Chipped and spalling edges along forklift routes
- Loading bay joints breaking down
Hospitals like Fareham Community Hospital, 2.6 miles south-east of Old Netley, have multi-storey or surface car parks whose joints carry vehicles round the clock.
Before you book anyone
- Proof of insurance
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
Keeping the joints sound
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Tell us about strong cleaning chemicals before we quote
- Respect the cure time before traffic returns
- Keep photographs of joints that look like they’re failing
- Allow for topping up joints as a new slab settles
On younger slabs, a fine line can open down one side of a filled joint as the concrete keeps shrinking. It is a known trait of new floors and a later top-up deals with it in most cases.
Joints are easiest to look after when someone checks them regularly. A phased plan, worst routes first, spreads the work out and keeps on top of the rest.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
At the end of each section, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Smaller jobs around Old Netley can be grouped with others nearby. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
