Floor joint sealing for Send sites

Floor joint sealing in Send, done properly

Forklifts and pallet trucks are hard on open joints. Every pass chips at the bare concrete edge, and over time a neat cut turns into a ragged channel. A properly filled joint carries the wheel over and protects both arrises. It also smooths the route for drivers and stock. We work on loading bays, construction joints and forklift and pallet-truck routes, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor and open saw cuts full of debris. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Send, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

In a smaller place such as Send, floor and movement joints are often in agricultural and rural business units, schools and the odd small industrial yard. Their slabs and walls still need movement joints that work.

Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

How the job changes by surface

Construction joints

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

Retail and showroom floors

We plan shop-floor work so trading can continue. Give us your opening pattern and access windows and the phasing follows.

Slabs, ramps and loading bays in Send

Send sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, and where de-icing salt is spread in winter, open joints let it in. Less than 3 miles from Send there are at least three named estates and business parks. Floors, loading bays and yards on sites like these are where floor and movement joints work hardest.

University campuses such as University of Surrey - Stag Hill Campus, 4.1 miles to the south-west of Send, have car parks, paved walkways and building elevations with movement joints. Office parks like Merrow Business Park, 2.2 miles to the south of Send, have decks, ramps and clad elevations whose joints take movement every day.

Send is about 3 miles south-east of Woking, in Surrey. Any commercial site in Send is covered, whether it’s a single job or part of a planned programme. Our Surrey coverage takes in 379 places, from busy centres to rural villages. We also cover Reading, around 22 miles from Send.

We cover the GU23 postcode districts for floor joints. Streets here include Sandy Lane, Farm Lane and Sandfields, and sites on any of them can send details for a fixed quote. Close to Send, our area also takes in Send Marsh (1 mile east), Burntcommon (1 mile east), Sutton Green (1 mile south-west), Mayford (2 miles west) and Pyle Hill (2 miles west). Nearby towns on our patch include Guildford (3 miles south-west), Woking (3 miles north-west), Camberley (9 miles west), Epsom (12 miles east), Farnham (13 miles south-west) and Ewell (13 miles east).

Near you in Send

Around Send, our work takes us to commercial buildings near St John the Baptist Catholic Comprehensive School, White Rose Lane and The New Inn and the streets around them. For rail, the closest station is Clandon station, about 2.2 miles south-east. A little further out are Send and Ripley History Society Museum (1.8 miles east) and Woking Community Hospital (2.1 miles north-west). For a walk, there’s Boldermere Lake and Papercourt Marshes.

On site: what to expect

We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. For a site in Send, we plan so the whole job is done in one go where possible. Clear photographs and measurements help us bring the right products.

  1. We agree the traffic routes and phasing with your site team.
  2. We point out joints whose edges need repairing first.
  3. We clear each run back to clean concrete.
  4. We fill the joints with the agreed product, finished level.
  5. You get a time for each zone to reopen.

Getting the site ready

  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use
  • Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand

Related advice

Leave it or put it right?

Dirt and spillage gather in open joints where scrubber-driers can’t get it out. Where the floor is on show or needs to be kept clean, that is a problem. Filled joints are far simpler to keep clean. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.

The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Keeping the joints sound

Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:

  • Respect the cure time before traffic returns
  • Keep grit out of unfilled joints in the meantime
  • Record damaged joints with a photo and a location
  • Allow for topping up joints as a new slab settles

A routine walk of the busiest aisles shows how the joints are holding up. Look for separation down one side, new chips in the arris and debris gathering and keep photographs so changes are easy to compare.

Grit in an open joint does damage every time a wheel crosses it. Getting it filled stops the damage before it becomes a repair.

FAQs: Send

Is a hospital such as Woking Community Hospital somewhere you can work?

Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.

Is a smaller place like Send outside your area?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?

The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.

How do we get a quote for floor joints?

Send details through our quote form or by email, with the traffic on each area. A fixed quote follows with the product and phasing set out.

Are you insured?

Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.

How many days will you need on site?

We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.

Does the weather affect the work?

It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.

How the quote is worked out

Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:

  • How much existing material needs removing
  • Travel to remote or island sites
  • Phasing around occupants
  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits

Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote.

Sending details for a quote

A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:

  • Clear photographs of the problem areas
  • The product your specification calls for
  • What the building is and how it’s used
  • Whether an asbestos survey exists

Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Do you need floor joint sealing in Send?

Joints near dock doors see colder air, rain blown in and water off vehicles, as well as the tightest turning loads. They are often the first on a site to break down.

If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:

  • Broken arrises where pallet trucks cross
  • Filler that has parted from one face
  • Dock area joints that have failed first
  • Grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor

Schools like Send CofE Primary School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly.
