About our floor joint sealing in Picket Piece
For sites in Picket Piece and across Hampshire, the process is short: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. A rough length of joint, photos of the worst areas and a site plan let us give a quick quote, or we can arrange a site visit. Site teams most often ask us about flexible sealant torn out by wheels and joint fill separating from the concrete, on loading bays, saw-cut induced joints and construction joints. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Picket Piece 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.
Around Picket Piece, most floor and movement joint jobs are single buildings or yards, so we gather photographs and measurements first. That way the right materials come on the day and the job is done in one visit where possible.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Questions about Picket Piece
Is Picket Piece too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Would you work within a site like Andover Hospital (Grounds)?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work usually takes a day or more, depending on the metres of joint and how many zones the floor is split into. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
Can you send site paperwork?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.
Why is there a gap next to the joint filler?
It can be shrinkage, contamination on the joint faces or a product unsuited to the movement. We diagnose the cause before suggesting a fix.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, tell us and we will confirm them with the quote.
When to bring in a specialist
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
From enquiry to sign-off
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work normally takes a day or more, depending on the metres of joint and how many zones the floor is split into, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Picket Piece need work too, visits can be combined. Mention the building’s opening times and we will work within them.
- We agree the traffic routes and phasing with your site team.
- Any joints with broken edges are flagged before work starts.
- Failed material and debris are removed and the joint cleaned.
- The chosen filler or sealant goes in flush with the slab.
- Each area is handed back when ready for traffic.
What we need from you
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
Getting a fixed quote
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we will put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

Other services in Picket Piece
After the work
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Treat loading bay joints first if they’re failing
- Walk the main routes and inspect joint lines on a regular cycle
- Expect fillers on young slabs to need a top-up
- Sweep debris out of open joints until they can be filled
We will give you a time before trucks can run over the new joints, and it’s worth enforcing. In a busy building, barriers keep early traffic away.
Every vehicle on a busy aisle hits a damaged joint. Sorting it early looks after your equipment as well as the slab.
What sets the cost
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- The product specified
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Any access equipment needed
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. 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
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
Common problems we fix in Picket Piece
Older fills harden, shrink and crack with age, particularly where cleaning machines and traffic work it daily. At that point it neither holds the edges nor keeps debris out.
Most enquiries start with something like this:
- Untidy open joints in a retail unit
- Failing joints at loading bays and dock doors
- Cracked and crumbling joint fill
- Drivers complaining about joints on a route
Schools such as Pilgrims' Cross CofE Aided Primary School have movement joints in their walls and floors that are easy to overlook.
Questions to ask before you book
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
How the job changes by surface
Forklift and pallet-truck routes
Trucks running over open joints wear wheels and shake loads. A filled joint lets wheels roll across and protects the floor.
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.
