Questions we’re asked in Selsey
Do we have to stop operations in Selsey while the joints are sealed?
In most cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. The phasing plan comes with the quote.
Can you work at a site such as Selsey Business Centre, by Selsey?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Selsey, Selsey Business Centre among them, are all within reach. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
How do we get a quote for floor joints?
Approximate metres of joint, photographs of typical and worst areas, and a floor plan let us give a quick quote. We can visit where that helps so call 01277 525 020 or email the details over to set one up.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Can you fill joints where the arrises have spalled?
Filling against broken edges doesn’t last. If the arrises have spalled, we’ll say they need repair before filling and set out how that affects the job.
How soon can traffic go back on the floor?
The wait is set by the product’s cure time and cooler floors take longer. We plan the phasing so that waiting time fits your operation.
How many days will you need on site?
That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit typically takes between a day and a number of days, set by the joint lengths, the edge condition and the phasing you need. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
Floor joint sealing in Selsey, done properly
We diagnose the floor first rather than guessing at a product: joint widths, whether the joints are still opening, what runs over them and how the edges have held up. From that we choose between a semi-rigid filler and a more flexible sealant and the answer can differ from one zone to the next. If you are dealing with joint fill separating from the concrete and joint edges breaking up under truck wheels, we can help, on construction joints, retail and showroom floors and loading bays alike. Whoever orders the work in Selsey, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Car parks and yards in towns like Selsey take tyre loads and, in winter, de-icing salt. Resealing before the edges break up is far less disruptive than repairing them later.
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 to bring in a specialist
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with 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. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
Commercial clients in Selsey
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.
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Selsey can sit alongside others in a wider programme across West Sussex.

Slabs, ramps and loading bays in Selsey
The sea is no more than about 1 mile from Selsey. 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. Selsey 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 a school such as Seal Primary Academy, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays. Business parks such as Selsey Business Centre, less than half a mile south-west of Selsey, have car parks, paved areas and long brick and panel elevations, all with movement joints.

From enquiry to sign-off
Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. Once we’re cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. For a town like Selsey, we try to group jobs for the same client into one visit. Tell us when the building is open and we’ll plan to suit.
- First comes a walk of the floor to record joint sizes, broken edges and traffic routes.
- You get a fixed quote with the product and the phasing set out.
- Each joint is cleared of old fill and dirt and taken back to clean, sound edges.
- 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.
- We tell you when each zone can carry trucks again and move on to the next.
What we need from you
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Confirm the product named in the specification
Quotes
Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.

What we can’t put right
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Damaged or worn floor coatings and screeds
- Joint edges that have already broken away, which need repairing before filling (we will tell you if so)
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Saw-cut induced joints
- Construction joints
- Loading bays
- Retail and showroom floors
- Forklift and pallet-truck routes
- Joints along racking aisles
When to call us in Selsey
Small, hard wheels put a lot of load through a very small area. Where a joint is open, the wheel dips and strikes the far edge, and repeated impacts break the concrete away.
Clients normally get in touch after noticing something like this:
- Saw-cut joints left open and packed with grit
- Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
- Scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor
- Broken arrises where pallet trucks cross
At places like Trident Business Park (1 mile north of Selsey), joints are sealed a section at a time so operations carry on.
What to look for in a quote
- What site paperwork they can supply
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
Why deal with it now?
Duct tape or a general builders’ sealant can seem to buy some time. Neither is made to carry wheels and traffic soon pulls it out. A product chosen for the traffic and movement does the job once. Many buildings in towns like Selsey have been extended or altered, so joints between old and new are often the first to go. Resealing them early protects the building behind.
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain how it’s made up.

- Specification-led, product-correct work
