When to call us in Setley
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.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Loading bay joints breaking down
- Joint edges breaking up under truck wheels
- Drivers complaining about joints on a route
- Soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints
Schools such as Brockenhurst Church of England Primary School have movement joints in their walls and floors that are easy to overlook.

Floor joint sealing for commercial buildings in Setley
Most industrial slabs are divided into panels by saw-cut joints and construction joints, and each joint line is a weak edge that wheels run over all day. Our job is to put the right filler or sealant into them for the loads and the movement they see, so the arrises are supported and grit stays out. The enquiries we see most involve a rough ride across broken joints and chipped and spalling edges along forklift routes, on loading bays, saw-cut induced joints and construction joints. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Setley first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
Jobs around smaller places like Setley are planned so the whole job is done in one visit. Note joint widths and the traffic that uses them, and we will take it from there.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Why it’s worth doing now in Setley
Holding off until the whole floor can close can take a long time. Phased in zones, the busiest routes can be treated first while the rest of the floor carries on. Halls, stores and units around places like Setley may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

- CSCS-carded applicators

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
From enquiry to sign-off
At the end of each section, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. Smaller jobs around Setley can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.

Related advice
Setley: questions and answers
Will our site in Setley have to close for joint sealing?
Typically not: we work in sections and hand each one back once it has cured. Tell us which hours and entrances we can use and we’ll plan from there.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Lymington New Forest Hospital, something you do?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Can you send site paperwork?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
Should floor joints be filled or sealed?
It depends on the traffic and the movement. Trafficked joints on truck routes typically need a semi-rigid filler to support the edges, while joints that move more take a flexible sealant.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.

A healthcare site such as Lymington New Forest Hospital, 2.9 miles south-east of Setley, depends on car parks, ramps and service yards whose joints take traffic all day.

When something else is needed
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- A floor that rocks at the joints, which needs a structural fix
- Level or flatness problems across the floor
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
