About our floor joint sealing in Sandleheath
We diagnose the floor first rather than guessing at a product: how wide the joints are, signs of ongoing movement, the wheel types crossing them and the state of the arrises. That tells us whether semi-rigid filler or flexible sealant suits each run and the answer can differ from one zone to the next. Most enquiries involve soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints and a gap opening alongside old joint filler, across loading bays, forklift and pallet-truck routes and construction joints. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Sandleheath? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Halls, schools and small commercial buildings near places like Sandleheath have movement joints in brick, block and concrete too. They’re easily forgotten until water gets in or an edge breaks.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Hampshire. If an installation problem shows up, ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will arrange a return visit.

Common problems we fix in Sandleheath
An ageing filler or sealant can go brittle and split, particularly where cleaning machines and traffic work it daily. Once it has gone hard or come loose, it protects nothing.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- A rough ride across broken joints
- Broken arrises where pallet trucks cross
- Grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor
- Cracked and crumbling joint fill
Schools such as The Burgate School and Sixth Form have movement joints in their walls and floors that are easy to overlook.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Leave it or put it right?
Tape, or whatever sealant is in the stores cupboard, may look like a fix for a while. None of it is designed for wheel loads and traffic soon pulls it out. A product chosen for the traffic and movement does the job once. Older rural buildings around Sandleheath move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
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’ll have a fixed figure to work with.

Traffic, movement and joints around Sandleheath
Sandleheath has at least three named business or industrial parks inside a 3-mile radius. Their warehouses, yards and car parks are exactly where joints take the most punishment. Rainfall across the South East, Sandleheath included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, yard and car park joints are only sealed when they’re dry and clean, while winter salting gets into any joint left open.
Another example is Fordingbridge Business Park (0.7 miles south-east of Sandleheath), where floors and yards would be done in stages around the occupiers. A healthcare site such as Fordingbridge Hospital, 1.3 miles east of Sandleheath, depends on car parks, ramps and service yards whose joints take traffic all day.

Questions we’re asked in Sandleheath
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Fordingbridge Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Sandleheath, such as Sandleheath Industrial Estate?
Yes. We cover Sandleheath and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Sandleheath Industrial Estate. To start, just phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
How long before trucks can use the joints?
Cure times vary with the product and the conditions. We’ll give you a time for each zone when we agree the phasing.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
Do you use semi-rigid filler or flexible sealant on floor joints?
We decide joint by joint. Where hard wheels cross, a semi-rigid filler is typically right, and movement joints or perimeters need something flexible. You will see the choice for each area in the quote.
What information helps you price floor joint sealing?
Approximate metres of joint, photographs of typical and worst areas, and a floor plan let us give a quick quote. For larger floors, a site visit is often best so call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings to set one up.
Can you send site paperwork?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets
- Start with the dock areas, where joints fail soonest
- Allow for topping up joints as a new slab settles
- Make joint checks part of your floor inspections
On younger slabs, a fine line can open down one side of a filled joint as the concrete keeps shrinking. That is common and is usually dealt with by topping up once the slab has settled down in the majority of cases.
Regular inspection catches failing fills before the edges go. A phased plan, worst routes first, spreads the work out and keeps on top of the rest.
Our process
Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. For a building around Sandleheath, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.
- First, the zones and order of work are agreed with you.
- Any joints with broken edges are flagged before work starts.
- We clear each run back to clean concrete.
- The chosen filler or sealant goes in flush with the slab.
- You get a time for each zone to reopen.
Before we start on site

- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
