About our floor joint sealing in South Mundham
Concrete floors in warehouses and factories are cut into bays with saw cuts and day 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 forklift and pallet-truck routes, retail and showroom floors and saw-cut induced joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints and dock area joints that have failed first. For commercial sealant work in South Mundham, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Jobs around smaller places like South Mundham are planned so the whole job is done in one visit. Tell us the joint widths if you can, and what drives or walks over them.
Work we carry out in West Sussex comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will arrange a return visit.

Looking after the joints
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Stop forks and pallets being dragged across joints
- Mention any aggressive cleaning regime at quote stage
- Walk the main routes and inspect joint lines on a regular cycle
- Record damaged joints with a photo and a location
Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets along the floor. Steel tines will mark a good joint over time if it keeps happening.
Regular inspection catches failing fills before the edges go. A phased plan, worst routes first, spreads the work out so nothing is left to fail.
Quoting for work in South Mundham
These are the things that shape the price:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.
What we need to price the job
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- When you need the work done
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
When it isn’t the sealant
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Spalled arrises, which need an edge repair first
- Unstable slabs moving under traffic
- A failing floor coating, which is a flooring contractor’s job
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will say what we think.

Questions about South Mundham
Does your area include sites such as Quarry Lane Industrial Estate, near South Mundham?
Yes. We cover South Mundham and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Quarry Lane Industrial Estate. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as St Richard's Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
How long before trucks can use the joints?
Each product has its own cure time and cooler floors take longer. Phasing is planned with that in mind.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it 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 we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Will we need to close the floor?
The work is phased. Areas are taken out of use a section at a time around the site hours and access windows you give us.

Common problems we fix in South Mundham
Loading bay joints are exposed to wind, wet tyres and bigger temperature swings, as well as the tightest turning loads. They are often the first on a site to break down.
Look out for the following:
- Flexible sealant torn out by wheels
- Chipped and spalling edges along forklift routes
- Scruffy, dirty joint lines on a shop or showroom floor
- Trucks and loads jolting over damaged joints
Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as City Business Park (2.5 miles north-west of South Mundham): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time.
