How a job runs
In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before we move to the next. Smaller jobs around Puddledock can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- Each area is assessed for joint width, arris damage and the wheels that cross it.
- A fixed quote follows, listing the treatment for each area and the order of work.
- We remove failed material and packed debris until sound concrete is exposed on both faces.
- Dust is extracted from the joint and primer applied where the manufacturer specifies it.
- The chosen product is placed to its specified depth and trimmed level with the floor.
- Each phase reopens when the product is ready for wheels, then we start the next.
Preparing the site
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use

General trades versus a specialist
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Your questions answered
Can you work at a site such as Pembroke Business Centre, by Puddledock?
Yes. Our area takes in Puddledock and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Pembroke Business Centre included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Can you work on a hospital site such as West Hill Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Will we need to close the floor?
In the majority of cases, just the area being treated is coned off. Each zone reopens when the product can take traffic, then we move to the next.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we 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.
How long do sealant joints last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Do you repair broken joint edges?
A filler needs sound edges to grip. If the arrises have spalled, we’ll say they need repair before filling and set out how that affects the job.
Different surfaces, different methods
Semi-rigid joint fillers
For trafficked warehouse joints, semi-rigid fillers are common. We place them to depth and trim them level with the slab.
Flexible floor sealants
Polyurethane sealants suit floor joints with larger movement. They don’t hold the arrises up as firmly as a semi-rigid fill so they are used where movement matters more than wheel load.
After the work
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Let us know what the floor is cleaned with
- Walk the main routes and inspect joint lines on a regular cycle
- Keep photographs of joints that look like they’re failing
- Allow for topping up joints as a new slab settles
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 photos so changes are easy to compare.
Edges tend to break slowly at first, then quickly. Each chip makes the drop deeper and the next impact harder, so it pays to act at the first signs.
For managing agents and facilities managers
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
Why it’s worth doing now in Puddledock
Open joints are where dirt collects, out of reach of the floor cleaner. In shops, showrooms and clean production areas that matters for hygiene and appearance. Flush, filled joints leave nothing for cleaners to dig out. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Puddledock, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.
Why us?
- Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months
- One contact handling all your sites
- Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
- Fixed quotes based on photos, drawings or a visit

Floors, slabs and movement joints in Puddledock
Puddledock is about 13 miles from central London. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London. Puddledock sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External joints still wait for dry conditions, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint.
Campuses like University of Greenwich (4.3 miles east of Puddledock) mix old and new buildings, with movement joints wherever they meet. Hospital campuses such as West Hill Hospital, 2.5 miles to the north-east of Puddledock, grow in stages, leaving movement joints wherever new blocks meet old. For a centre such as Dartford Heath Retail Park, 1.9 miles north-east of Puddledock, the service yard and car park joints typically need attention first.
