About our floor joint sealing in Peartree Green

Most industrial slabs are divided into panels with saw cuts and day joints, and every one of those joints is an exposed edge under hard wheels. 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. If you’re dealing with grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor and a gap opening alongside old joint filler, we can put it right, on joints along racking aisles, loading bays and retail and showroom floors alike. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Peartree Green first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.

Small units near places like Peartree Green are often converted farm buildings with new concrete floors. Saw-cut and construction joints in those floors need the right filler or sealant for the forklifts and trolleys that use them.

The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

When something else is needed

Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We’ll tell you if the real problem is any of the following:

  • A failing floor coating, which is a flooring contractor’s job
  • Uneven floors that need grinding or levelling
  • Joint edges that have already broken away, which need repairing before filling (we will tell you if so)

If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think.

Where we work in Peartree Green

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

On site: what to expect

Diagnose, treat, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Several jobs near Peartree Green can be grouped on one trip. Mention the building’s opening times and we will work within them.

  1. Each area is assessed for joint width, arris damage and the wheels that cross it.
  2. A fixed quote follows, listing the treatment for each area and the order of work.
  3. Old filler, debris and contamination are cut or routed out back to clean concrete.
  4. Dust is extracted from the joint and primer applied where the manufacturer specifies it.
  5. The chosen product is placed to its specified depth and trimmed level with the floor.
  6. The area is handed back once it has cured enough to take traffic.

Getting the site ready

  • Warn occupants and staff about the work
  • For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

Maintenance after handover

Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:

  • Keep grit out of unfilled joints in the meantime
  • Treat loading bay joints first if they’re failing
  • Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets
  • Photograph any joint that starts to chip

Problems inside the 12-month guarantee period are ours to put right. After that, a check before your busiest period keeps small repairs small.

Every day an open joint stays full of grit, the edges take more punishment. Filling it ends that cycle while it is still a straightforward job.

Cost factors for floor joints

Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:

  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • Travel to remote or island sites
  • Quantities, in metres or numbers
  • Joint width, depth and condition

A quote for floor joints depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you are working to. Call for a quote.

Sending details for a quote

The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:

  • The postcode of the building
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • The type of building and who uses it
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings

Need a figure for a tender or a budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we’ll return a fixed quote that you can work with. For a chat about it beforehand, phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.

Where floor joints take the most wear near Peartree Green

Peartree Green is within about 1 mile of the coast. External movement joints in car parks, ramps and yards near the coast take salt and wind-driven rain on top of traffic, so a failed joint lets more in and the edges break up sooner. Peartree Green has at least three named business or industrial parks inside a 3-mile radius. Sites like these are full of saw-cut floor joints, yard slabs and car park joints.

For an occupier at a site such as Central Trading Estate, 0.6 miles west of Peartree Green, the joints at loading doors and dock levellers usually see the hardest wear. At a retail site such as Marlands Shopping Centre, which lies west of Peartree Green, trolleys, cages and cars run over floor and slab joints all day.

Peartree Green is about 1 mile south-east of Southampton, in Southampton. Across the SO19 postcode area, it works the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Our Southampton coverage takes in 30 places.

Peartree Green: questions and answers

Is hospital work, at somewhere like Royal South Hants Hospital, something you do?

Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.

Can being near the sea in Peartree Green affect the sealant we need?

It can. Driven rain and salt are tougher on outside sealant than sheltered inland conditions. We choose the product for the exposure, prime where the manufacturer requires it and size the joint for its movement.

What site paperwork can you supply?

Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.

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.

Why is there a gap next to the joint filler?

Separation normally comes from slab shrinkage, poor preparation or the wrong product. We look at which it is before recommending anything.

Should floor joints be filled or sealed?

It depends on the traffic and the movement. Trafficked joints on truck routes normally need a semi-rigid filler to support the edges, while joints that move more take a flexible sealant.

Which sealant will you use?

The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.

Do you need floor joint sealing in Peartree Green?

Concrete slabs shrink as they dry out, and the saw cuts are there so it cracks in straight, controlled lines. Each panel pulls back as it shrinks and the joints open up, and a filler placed early can part company with one face.

Things that normally lead to an enquiry:

  • Trucks and loads jolting over damaged joints
  • Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
  • Dock area joints that have failed first
  • Flexible sealant torn out by wheels

Another example is Basepoint Business Centre, 0.7 miles south-west of Peartree Green, where floors and yards would be done in stages around the occupiers.

How to choose a sealant contractor

Surface by surface

Saw-cut induced joints

Saw cuts are made soon after the slab is cast so shrinkage cracks follow a line. They are narrow but open up as the panels shrink, and on truck routes they need a filler that supports the edges.

Construction joints

Day joints on busy routes are prone to edge damage. Movement and traffic are both checked before we decide what goes in.
