Need floor joint sealing in South Street?
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Floor joint sealing in South Street
Sometimes the concrete either side of a joint has already spalled. A filler laid against broken edges has nothing sound to grip, so we’ll tell you if the joint edges need repairing first and leave that decision with you. Most enquiries involve joint edges breaking up under truck wheels and brittle joint filler breaking up, across retail and showroom floors, joints along racking aisles and saw-cut induced joints. Most enquiries from South Street 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.
Most London buildings can’t shut a car park, loading bay or warehouse floor for long. We work through joints a section at a time, closing small areas in turn, at times agreed with the building manager.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

Common questions from South Street clients
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Tandridge Priory, something you do?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Can you work at a site such as Biggin Hill Airport Trading Estate, by South Street?
Yes, sites like Biggin Hill Airport Trading Estate are within our area, along with the rest of South Street. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
What information helps you price floor joint sealing?
A rough joint length, a few photos and a site plan are usually enough for a quick quote. We can visit where that helps so phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over to set one up.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Why has the filler pulled away from one side?
On newer slabs, the concrete keeps shrinking after the joints are filled, so a semi-rigid filler can part from one face. A top-up normally puts it right.
Which sealant will you use?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Will you just go over the old 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.
Different surfaces, different methods
Forklift and pallet-truck routes
Trucks running over open joints wear wheels and shake loads. Filling them gives a smoother run and protects the floor.
Flexible floor sealants
Polyurethane floor sealants are available in a range of colours, and we’ll confirm what the specified product offers.
When to call us in South Street
Older fills harden, shrink and crack with age, particularly where cleaning machines and traffic work it daily. At that point it neither holds the edges nor keeps debris out.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints
- Untidy open joints in a retail unit
- Broken arrises where pallet trucks cross
- Brittle joint filler breaking up
Sites like Tandridge Priory, 3.2 miles south of South Street, carry ambulances, deliveries and visitors’ cars over their road and deck joints.

Joints that move: notes for South Street
Basement car parks and service yards in London tend to be in use all working day, so we seal in sections and hand areas back as each cures.
In a school such as Charles Darwin School, movement joints in brick, block and hall floors tend to be forgotten until they leak. Like every part of Greater London, South Street is covered by the ULEZ, so vehicle access, loading and parking are planned before the first visit.
South Street is about 4 miles north-east of Oxted, in Greater London. We send applicators to South Street for floor joints. We work across 764 places in Greater London, large and small. Sites around London have their own page, about 15 miles away.
We take on floor joints across the TN16 postcode area, for business premises of every kind. Sites close to South Street are covered too, including Tatsfield (1 mile west), Force Green (2 miles south-east), Titsey (2 miles south-west), Westerham (2 miles south-east) and Moorhouse Bank (3 miles south). A short drive away, we cover London (15 miles north-west), Stockwell (14 miles north-west), Orpington (6 miles north), Wimbledon (14 miles north-west), Kennington (15 miles north-west) and New Cross (13 miles north).
What’s near South Street
South Street’s nearest station is Oxted station, about 3.7 miles south-west. Other landmarks nearby include Tandridge Priory (3.2 miles south). For a walk, there’s West Kent Golf Course nature reserve and Betsom's Hill.
Why deal with it now?
A floor coating laid over open joints soon cracks along the joint lines. The joints have to be filled or sealed as joints, whether or not the floor is coated. Access in London is hard enough to arrange once, so it makes sense to deal with every failing joint while access is in place.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.

What affects the price in South Street
To price the job, we consider:
- The product specified
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Any access equipment needed
- Phasing around occupants
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
Before you send an enquiry
There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- The product your specification calls for
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, and parking near a job is rarely simple. If there’s a loading bay, a car park or a permit we can use, tell us when you send details.
- We walk the floor and mark up joint widths, edge damage and traffic routes.
- You receive a fixed quote showing products and phasing.
- Each joint is cut or routed back to clean, sound concrete.
- We extract the dust and prime the faces if the product needs it.
- Filler or sealant is placed to depth and finished flush.
- We hand each phase back when it can take traffic.
Getting the site ready
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
Ask for a quote
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
