Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
How we handle floor joint sealing in South Ruislip
Before quoting, we look at what the floor is telling us: joint widths, whether the joints are still opening, what runs over them and how the edges have held up. From that we choose between a semi-rigid filler and a more flexible sealant, area by area where it needs to be. If you have broken arrises where pallet trucks cross and drivers complaining about joints on a route, we can put it right, on loading bays, forklift and pallet-truck routes and retail and showroom floors alike. Most enquiries from South Ruislip start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Floor and movement joints in London take heavy use: car park decks, loading bays, shopping centre malls and podiums over occupied space. When a joint fails, grit and water get in and the arrises start to break up.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

When something else is needed
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Level or flatness problems across the floor
- Cracks across panels caused by settlement or overload
- Slab panels that rock or move under load
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Construction joints
- Retail and showroom floors
- Joints along racking aisles
- Forklift and pallet-truck routes
- Saw-cut induced joints
- Loading bays
What the job involves on each surface
Isolation joints at walls and columns
Where racking or plant sits near column joints, access is agreed before we start so nothing has to move unexpectedly.
Loading bays and dock areas
Loading bays combine the heaviest turning loads with wet tyres and cold air from open doors. Joints here usually fail first so many programmes begin here.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Common questions from South Ruislip clients

Is South Ruislip in your area?

What site paperwork can you supply?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
How many days will you need on site?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
What happens if the joint edges are damaged?
A filler needs sound edges to grip. If the arrises have spalled, we will say they need repair before filling, so you can decide how to proceed.
What do you need from us to quote?
Approximate metres of joint, photos of typical and worst areas, and a floor plan are normally enough for a quick quote. We can visit where that helps so ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form to set one up.
Owners, agents and contractors
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.

- We clear each run back to clean concrete.
- The chosen filler or sealant goes in flush with the slab.

How the quote is worked out
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we look at:
- How accessible the joints are
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
What we need to price the job
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- The product your specification calls for
- The postcode of the building
- Clear photos of the problem areas
Need a figure for a tender or a budget? We’ll quote against your scope and drawings that you can work with. For a chat about it beforehand, ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
