About our floor joint sealing in Shilton
Floor joint sealing for us covers warehouse aisles, loading bays, production halls, retail floors and showroom slabs. Each job is priced from the metres of joint, their condition and the access windows we get and the figure is fixed before work begins. If you’re dealing with trucks and loads jolting over damaged joints and grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor, we can put it right, on saw-cut induced joints, construction joints and retail and showroom floors alike. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Shilton? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Around smaller places such as Shilton, floor joints are often in barns and farm buildings turned into workshops, stores and offices. Joints in those slabs take vehicles, trolleys and foot traffic, and need a filler or sealant to match.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Surface by surface
Retail and showroom floors
We plan shop-floor work so trading can continue. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Forklift and pallet-truck routes
Open route joints are hard on equipment and drivers. A filled joint lets wheels roll across and saves the edges.
From enquiry to sign-off
Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint with your site contact. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. Rural sites near Shilton may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.
- A floor survey records every joint, its edges and what crosses it.
- The treatment and the zones are set out in a fixed quote.
- Each joint is cut or routed back to clean, sound concrete.
- Dust is vacuumed out and primer applied where specified.
- The joint is filled to its specified depth and trimmed level.
- We hand each phase back when it can take traffic.
Before we start on site
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Confirm the product named in the specification

When something else is needed
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:
- Cracks across panels caused by settlement or overload
- Broken concrete either side of the joint
- Level or flatness problems across the floor
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

FAQs: Shilton
Must our site in Shilton stop work while the joints are done?
Rarely. Work is phased around your operations. We agree the sequence and timings with you before we start.
Is Shilton off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Is the floor joint work guaranteed?
A 12-month guarantee covers the work we do. It covers our workmanship, not later slab movement or damage from impacts.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Shilton
An ageing filler or sealant can go brittle and split, particularly where cleaning machines and traffic work it daily. At that point it neither holds the edges nor keeps debris out.
Clients usually get in touch after noticing something like this:
- Untidy open joints in a retail unit
- Joint edges breaking up under truck wheels
- A gap opening alongside old joint filler
- Cracked and crumbling joint fill
For a school such as Carterton Community College, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays.
