Floor joint sealing for commercial buildings in Sevington
Most industrial slabs are divided into panels by saw-cut joints and construction joints, and every one of those joints is an exposed edge under hard wheels. 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. We work on construction joints, retail and showroom floors and forklift and pallet-truck routes, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are dock area joints that have failed first and joint edges breaking up under truck wheels. Whoever orders the work in Sevington, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
For a site near Sevington, measurements and photos up front mean one trip where possible, with the right materials on hand. Tell us the joint widths if you can, and what drives or walks over them.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

Owners, agents and contractors
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Doing it in-house
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
How the job changes by surface
Forklift and pallet-truck routes
A route joint has to take repeated wheel strikes without breaking up. Wheel type and traffic level steer the product choice.
Saw-cut induced joints
A sawn joint left open soon packs with debris and chips at the edges. Filled in good time, they stay narrow and neat.

Your questions answered
Will you take on work at estates like Ashford Retail Park, close to Sevington?
Yes. Our area takes in Sevington and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Ashford Retail Park included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is a smaller place like Sevington outside your area?
No. Places such as Sevington are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
How long will the new sealant last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Should floor joints be filled or sealed?
We decide joint by joint. Where hard wheels cross, a semi-rigid filler is usually right, and movement joints or perimeters need something flexible. The quote sets out what goes where.
How long before trucks can use the joints?
Cure times vary with the product and how cold the slab is. You’ll get a reopening time for each area when we agree the phasing.
