Leave it or put it right?
Open joints are where dirt collects, out of reach of the floor cleaner. Where the floor is on show or needs to be kept clean, that is a problem. Flush, filled joints leave nothing for cleaners to dig out. For buildings around smaller places like Shenington, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. 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.

Floor joint sealing in Shenington, done properly
Not every floor joint we treat is in a warehouse. Shops, showrooms and trade counters have joints that take trolleys, foot traffic and scrubber-driers, where a gappy, dirty joint looks untidy and snags castors. A flush, well-finished joint tidies the whole floor. Most enquiries involve soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints and grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor, across joints along racking aisles, construction joints and retail and showroom floors. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Shenington from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Jobs around smaller places like Shenington are planned so the whole job is done in one visit, with the right materials on hand. Tell us the joint widths if you can, and what drives or walks over them.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, wherever the site is. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Honest limits
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Spalled arrises, which need an edge repair first
- Structural cracking in the slab
- Slab panels that rock or move under load

Shenington: questions and answers
Do you cover business parks and estates near Shenington, such as Alkerton Oaks Business Park?
Yes, sites like Alkerton Oaks Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Shenington. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is Shenington off your patch?
No. Places such as Shenington are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we will ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Why is there a gap next to the joint filler?
Separation normally comes from slab shrinkage, poor preparation or the wrong product. We look at which it is before recommending anything.
Can you send site paperwork?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
When to bring in a specialist
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
We follow your site rules from the start: 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, and each area is checked before we leave it. If others near Shenington need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- We walk the floor and mark up joint widths, edge damage and traffic routes.
- You receive a fixed quote showing products and phasing.
- Old fill and packed debris come out until both faces are sound.
- Dust is vacuumed out and primer applied where specified.
- Filler or sealant is placed to depth and finished flush.
- Zones reopen once cured and the work moves on.
What we need from you
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Point out any areas we must not close
Getting a fixed quote
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 send details through our quote form.
Advice
Where floor joints take the most wear near Shenington
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Even so, yard and car park joints are only sealed when they’re dry and clean, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint.
For a school such as Shenington Church of England Primary School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays. On a site such as Alkerton Oaks Business Park, which lies north-east of Shenington, the movement joints are in car park slabs, paving and building elevations. Sites like Horton General Hospital (5.6 miles east of Shenington) carry ambulances, deliveries and visitors’ cars over their road and deck joints.
Shenington is about 5 miles west of Banbury, in Oxfordshire. We cover commercial sites throughout Shenington, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. Our Oxfordshire coverage takes in 423 places, large and small. We also cover Oxford, around 25 miles from Shenington.

We work on buildings around The Bell Inn. Other landmarks nearby include Broughton Castle (4.1 miles south-east) and Horton General Hospital (5.6 miles east). Open spaces near Shenington include Edge Hill and Woodford Bottom and Lamb's Pool.
Keeping the joints sound
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:
- Photograph any joint that starts to chip
- Respect the cure time before traffic returns
- Mention any aggressive cleaning regime at quote stage
- Check joint lines on busy aisles regularly
Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets along the floor. Even a well-filled joint can be damaged by steel scraping along it if it keeps happening.
Edges tend to break slowly at first, then quickly. Each chip makes the drop deeper and the next impact harder, so it pays to act at the first signs.
What affects the price in Shenington
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- The total length or number of joints
- Which sealant the job calls for
- How accessible the joints are
- Whether the work must be split into stages
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.
What we need to price the job
Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
