Common questions from Standen clients
Is a hospital such as Benenden Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Does a site in Standen have to shut while its joints are sealed?
In the majority of cases the site keeps working. Joints are done in phases, a bay, aisle or deck at a time. Tell us which hours and entrances we can use and we will plan from there.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Do you work in Standen?
Yes. Sites across Standen are covered.
Do you use semi-rigid filler or flexible sealant on floor joints?
There isn’t one answer for a whole floor. Hard wheels need edge support, which points to a semi-rigid filler and perimeter or movement joints need flexibility. You will see the choice for each area in the quote.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.
Will we need to close the floor?
Typically only the zone we are working in has to close. Each zone reopens when the product can take traffic, then we move to the next.
About our floor joint sealing in Standen
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. The enquiries we see most involve drivers complaining about joints on a route and a gap opening alongside old joint filler, on construction joints, retail and showroom floors and forklift and pallet-truck routes. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Standen tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Around smaller places such as Standen, 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.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

How the quote is worked out
These are the things that shape the price:
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Joint width, depth and condition
- How accessible the joints are
- Working within restricted access windows
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Details that help us quote
However big the job, the same details help:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Your programme or deadline
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with what you know.
General trades versus a specialist
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
When it isn’t the sealant
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
- A failing floor coating, which is a flooring contractor’s job
- Joint edges that have already broken away, which need repairing before filling (we will tell you if so)
If you’re not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.

Joints that move: notes for Standen
At about 41 miles from central London, Standen is within reach of the capital. Distribution warehouses and industrial estates are common around the motorway corridors that serve the capital. Standen is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Even so, yard and car park joints are only sealed when they’re dry and clean, and gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints.
Large sites such as Benenden Hospital (to the south-west of Standen) have car parks, service roads and long elevations with movement joints in brick and panels. In and around Standen, the right filler or sealant for each joint depends on the traffic and the movement it takes.

From enquiry to sign-off

- The treatment and the zones are set out in a fixed quote.
- Each joint is cut or routed back to clean, sound concrete.

Related advice
After the work
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Plan for a top-up on newer floors
- Tell us about strong cleaning chemicals before we quote
- Put loading bays at the top of the list
- Stop forks and pallets being dragged across joints
On younger slabs, a fine line can open down one side of a filled joint as the concrete keeps shrinking. It is a known trait of new floors and a later top-up deals with it.
Regular inspection catches failing fills before the edges go. A phased plan, worst routes first, spreads the work out and keeps on top of the rest.
