When it isn’t the sealant
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- A floor that rocks at the joints, which needs a structural fix
- Level or flatness problems across the floor
- Worn screed or surface finishes
If you are not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Joints along racking aisles
- Construction joints
- Retail and showroom floors
- Forklift and pallet-truck routes
- Saw-cut induced joints
- Loading bays
Floor joint sealing in Owslebury, done properly
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. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them, with goods still moving in the areas we aren’t in. Most enquiries involve saw-cut joints left open and packed with grit and scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor, across loading bays, joints along racking aisles and construction joints. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Owslebury, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
In and around smaller places like Owslebury, 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.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work normally takes between a day and a number of days, set by the joint lengths, the edge condition and the phasing you need. Jobs in and around smaller places like Owslebury are typically planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. 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.
- Each joint is cleared of old fill and dirt and taken back to clean, sound edges.
- We vacuum each run and prime it if the chosen product requires a primer.
- We fill each joint to depth and finish it flush so wheels roll straight across.
- Each phase reopens when the product is ready for wheels, then we start the next.
Preparing the site
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Your questions answered
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as St John's Rooms And Chapel?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Hazeley Enterprise Park, near Owslebury, within your area?
Yes. We cover Owslebury and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Hazeley Enterprise Park. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it.
Should floor joints be filled or sealed?
The answer comes from the traffic and the joint’s movement. Forklift routes generally call for a semi-rigid filler that holds the arrises, while joints that move more take a flexible sealant.
What guarantee do you give on joint filling?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee, and we hold public liability insurance.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
Why is there a gap next to the joint filler?
Separation usually comes from slab shrinkage, poor preparation or the wrong product. We diagnose the cause before suggesting a fix.
Floors, slabs and movement joints in Owslebury
Rainfall across the South East, Owslebury included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint. Central London is about 61 miles from Owslebury. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London; their floors carry heavy traffic every shift.
Schools such as Owslebury Primary School have movement joints in their walls and floors that are easy to overlook. A campus such as University of Winchester (4.5 miles north-west of Owslebury) has long runs of movement joint in its buildings, decks and paving. For buildings at a park such as Hazeley Enterprise Park, which lies north-west of Owslebury, brick and panel movement joints are easy to forget until one leaks.

What else we do in Owslebury
Leave it or put it right?
Broken joints shake trucks, stock and operators alike. That means extra wear on wheels and a rougher ride for staff, adding costs nobody plans for. A filled joint takes most of that out. Around Owslebury, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Send photos of each area and we will quote for the lot.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.

Keeping the joints sound
For the best life from the joints:
- Keep grit out of unfilled joints in the meantime
- Start with the dock areas, where joints fail soonest
- Photograph any joint that starts to chip
- Make joint checks part of your floor inspections
Walk the main truck routes every few months and look along the joint lines. Look for separation down one side, new chips in the arris and debris gathering and keep photographs so changes are easy to compare.
Treating joints while the arrises are sound keeps the work simple. After the edges go, repairs come into it and that takes longer and closes areas for longer.
What the job involves on each surface
Construction joints
Construction joints, sometimes called day joints, mark where one pour ended and the next began. They often see more movement than sawn joints, and that shapes the product choice.
Forklift and pallet-truck routes
Main aisles and cross routes carry the most wheel movements and the joints on them break down first. A semi-rigid filler is common here because it supports the arrises under hard wheels.
