About our floor joint sealing in Temple Hill
Few warehouses can shut a whole floor while joints are done, so the work is split into zones and treated one area at a time. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them so the rest of the operation keeps going. If you have saw-cut joints left open and packed with grit and joint edges breaking up under truck wheels, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Most enquiries from Temple Hill start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
Around Temple Hill, most floor and movement joint jobs are single buildings or yards, so we gather photos and measurements first. That way the right materials come on the day and the job is done in one visit where possible.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

General trades versus a specialist
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
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.
What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Broken concrete either side of the joint
- Level or flatness problems across the floor
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Floors, slabs and movement joints in Temple Hill
Less than 3 miles from Temple Hill there are at least three named estates and business parks. Floors, loading bays and yards on sites like these are where floor and movement joints work hardest. Temple Hill is about 14 miles from central London. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London; their floors carry heavy traffic every shift.
A healthcare site such as Little Brook Hospital (0.8 miles east of Temple Hill) depends on car parks, ramps and service yards whose joints take traffic all day. For estates staff at a university like University of Greenwich, 1.9 miles east of Temple Hill, building and paving joints are part of the planned maintenance list. If you manage units on an estate such as Riverside Industrial Estate, less than half a mile north-west of Temple Hill, the floor joints under forklifts and pallet trucks and the slab joints in the yard are the ones to watch.

For managing agents and facilities managers
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we are straightforward to vet for your supplier list. We are fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
Keeping the joints sound
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Keep grit out of unfilled joints in the meantime
- Plan for a top-up on newer floors
- Start with the dock areas, where joints fail soonest
- Walk the main routes and inspect joint lines on a regular cycle
Once cured, the joints get cleaned along with the slab. Tell us about aggressive cleaning products or hot washing at quote stage so we choose something that tolerates them.
A broken joint on a main route is crossed by every truck on that route. Sorting it early looks after your equipment as well as the slab.
From enquiry to sign-off
In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed before we move to the next. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Temple Hill need work too, visits can be combined. Mention the building’s opening times and we will work within them.
- We walk the floor and mark up joint widths, edge damage and traffic routes.
- 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.
- Zones reopen once cured and the work moves on.
Getting the site ready
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Flag any permit to work we will need
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Why deal with it now?
Some runs only need partial renewal or topping up. Where existing filler is well bonded and the gap beside it is small, a full strip-out isn’t always needed, and we’ll say which joints need what. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.

Temple Hill: questions and answers
Is Temple Hill too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Temple Hill, such as Riverside Industrial Estate?
Yes. Our area takes in Temple Hill and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Riverside Industrial Estate included. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Which sealant will you use?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
What happens if the joint edges are damaged?
We check the edges as part of the survey. Where they have broken away, we will tell you before quoting the filling so the filling isn’t wasted.
How long will the new sealant last?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Will we need to close the floor?
We phase it. Areas are taken out of use a section at a time around the site hours and access windows you give us.
What guarantee do you give on joint filling?
Every job has our 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship rather than structural movement or accidental damage.
