Floor joint sealing in Viables

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

Floor joint sealing in Viables, done properly

It isn’t only heavy industry. 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 loading bay joints breaking down and sealant pulled out along a truck route, on construction joints, joints along racking aisles and saw-cut induced joints. For commercial sealant work in Viables, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.

In a smaller place such as Viables, floor and movement joints are often in agricultural and rural business units, schools and the odd small industrial yard. Concrete floors and yards in these buildings move and crack like any others.

Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll come back to it.

Warehouse floors and decks around Viables

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. 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. Central London is about 46 miles from Viables. Distribution warehouses and industrial estates are common around the motorway corridors that serve the capital, and their floor joints take forklift and pallet-truck traffic all day.

Phasing is what makes joint work possible on busy sites such as Brunswick Place Industrial Estate (under half a mile west of Viables): one bay, aisle or car park row at a time. Centres like St Michael's Retail Park, 0.8 miles west of Viables, have mall floors and service decks whose joints carry steady traffic. A healthcare site such as Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital, 2.3 miles to the north-west of Viables, depends on car parks, ramps and service yards whose joints take traffic all day.

Viables is about 1 mile south-east of Basingstoke, in Hampshire. Commercial clients in Viables can call on us for floor joints, as part of our coverage of Hampshire. Our Hampshire coverage takes in 723 places. There’s a separate page for Reading, about 15 miles away.

Postcode districts covered here: RG21, RG22 and RG25 for floor joints. We cover commercial and managed buildings on Grove Road, Porter Road and Morley Road and the roads nearby. Just outside Viables, we also work in Cliddesden (1 mile south), Eastrop (1 mile north), Oakridge (1 mile north), Lychpit (2 miles north-east) and Old Basing (2 miles north-east). Bigger towns within reach include Farnborough (14 miles east), Fleet (11 miles east), Aldershot (14 miles east), Alton (8 miles south-east), Yateley (13 miles north-east) and Tadley (8 miles north).

What’s near Viables

We work on buildings around The Costello School, Queen Mary's College and Hackwood Park, among other places. For rail, the closest station is Basingstoke station, about 1.3 miles north. Well-known places in the area include Willis Museum (0.9 miles north) and Festival Place (1.1 miles north). Not far away are The Mill Field and Farleigh Hill.

Keeping the joints sound

After handover, these steps help:

  • Photograph any joint that starts to chip
  • Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets
  • Allow for topping up joints as a new slab settles
  • Let us know what the floor is cleaned with

Keep traffic off fresh joints until the time we give you, and it’s worth enforcing. Cones or barriers stop the first driver cutting the corner.

Edges tend to break slowly at first, then quickly. Once the first piece is out, wheels drop further and hit harder so early treatment saves a lot of trouble.

Our process

Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. What matters most for a job in Viables is a clear list of what needs doing, so send photos of each area. You’ll then get a fixed price for the work.

  1. A floor survey records every joint, its edges and what crosses it.
  2. The treatment and the zones are set out in a fixed quote.
  3. Each joint is cut or routed back to clean, sound concrete.
  4. We extract the dust and prime the faces if the product needs it.
  5. Filler or sealant is placed to depth and finished flush.
  6. We hand each phase back when it can take traffic.

Preparing the site

  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
  • Send your site hours and access windows

Request a quote

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

Viables: questions and answers

Is a hospital such as Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital somewhere you can work?

Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.

Will you take on work at estates like Viables Industrial Estate, close to Viables?

Yes. We cover Viables and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Viables Industrial Estate. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.

How soon can traffic go back on the floor?

The wait is set by the product’s cure time, and cold floors slow it down. Phasing is planned with that in mind.

Are you insured?

Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.

How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?

Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.

Who decides which product is used?

The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.

Do you guarantee industrial floor joints?

Every job has our 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later slab movement or damage from impacts.

Different surfaces, different methods

Semi-rigid joint fillers

A semi-rigid fill can separate along one side while a slab is still shrinking. A later top-up normally puts that right and we’ll flag it at quote stage.

Retail and showroom floors

In retail, joints take trolleys, castors and cleaning machines rather than forklifts. The product is chosen for that traffic and the finish matters as much as the performance.

Quoting for work in Viables

Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:

  • Which sealant the job calls for
  • Removal of failed or old sealant
  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits
  • Phasing around occupants

There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

What to include in your enquiry

To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:

  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • Any dates the work must fit around
  • Where the site is, with the postcode
  • Whether an asbestos survey exists

For a fixed quote, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. Our quote form is another easy route.

Work for main contractors and building owners

We work for building owners and managing agents on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios around Viables. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.

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, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

Why deal with it now?

Duct tape or a general builders’ sealant can seem to buy some time. None of it is designed for wheel loads and traffic soon pulls it out. A product chosen for the traffic and movement does the job once. In a smaller place such as Viables, getting a contractor back for a second visit takes time, so we’d suggest renewing all the joints that are going, not just the worst.

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.
