About our floor joint sealing in Patrixbourne
Most industrial slabs are divided into panels by saw-cut joints and construction joints, and each joint line is a weak edge that wheels run over all day. Our job is to put the right filler or sealant into them for the loads and the movement they see, so the arrises are supported and grit stays out. We work on forklift and pallet-truck routes, loading bays and construction joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are drivers complaining about joints on a route and grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Patrixbourne tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
In and around smaller places like Patrixbourne, the concrete floors we see are often in converted farm buildings, small workshops and storage units. Joints in those slabs take vehicles, trolleys and foot traffic, and need a filler or sealant to match.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Kent. If an installation problem shows up, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll arrange a return visit.

What happens if it’s left?
An open joint is a modest filling job while its edges are sound. Left until they break, it needs an edge repair before any filling can start, with longer closures to match. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Patrixbourne, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

When something else is needed

Your questions answered
Do you cover business parks and estates near Patrixbourne, such as Canterbury Business Park?
Yes, sites like Canterbury Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Patrixbourne. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is Patrixbourne too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Patrixbourne are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
What happens if the joint edges are damaged?
We check the edges as part of the survey. Where they have broken away, we will tell you before quoting the filling, so nothing is filled that won’t hold.
Can you phase floor joint work around operations?
The work is phased. We work aisle by aisle or zone by zone so the rest of the floor stays in use. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
How long before trucks can use the joints?
Each product has its own cure time and cooler floors take longer. We plan the phasing so that waiting time fits your operation.
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. A top-up normally puts it right.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.

What sets the cost
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- The product specified
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.
What we need to price the job
However big the job, the same details help:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Access details, including height
- The postcode of the building
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
To get a fixed quote, call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with the site address and an outline of the work. You can also send details through our quote form.
Doing it in-house
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
Floor joint sealing around Patrixbourne: how the place shapes the job

Patrixbourne is about 56 miles from central London. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London, and their floor joints take forklift and pallet-truck traffic all day.

For a school such as Bridge and Patrixbourne Church of England Primary School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays. Large sites such as Saint Martin's Hospital, 2 miles north-west of Patrixbourne, have car parks, service roads and long elevations with movement joints in brick and panels.
