Floor joint sealing in West Green, done properly
Most industrial slabs are divided into panels with saw cuts and day joints, and each joint line is a weak edge that wheels run over all day. We fill or seal them with a product matched to the traffic and the movement, so the arrises are supported and grit stays out. Site teams most often ask us about a gap opening alongside old joint filler and joint edges breaking up under truck wheels, across retail and showroom floors, loading bays and saw-cut induced joints. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in West Green, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Around West Green, most floor and movement joint jobs are single buildings or yards, so we gather photos and measurements first. Getting widths, depths and traffic details up front means one visit, not two.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

What sets the cost
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- The size and state of each joint
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you’re ready.
Before you send an enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- The site address and postcode
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- What the building is and how it’s used
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.

Floors, slabs and movement joints in West Green
The 3 miles around West Green take in at least three named trading estates, business parks or retail parks. Sites like these are full of saw-cut floor joints, yard slabs and car park joints. West Green sits in or beside Crawley, a twentieth-century planned town. Industrial estates in planned towns were built in phases, so whole rows of units can need their floor joints done at once, so a planned programme across a site can make sense.
At places like County Oak Retail Park, 0.7 miles north of West Green, joints are sealed a section at a time so operations carry on. On a site such as Crompton Fields Business Park, which lies north-east of West Green, the movement joints are in car park slabs, paving and building elevations.
West Green is about 1 mile north of Crawley, in West Sussex.

When something else is needed
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
- A floor that rocks at the joints, which needs a structural fix
- A floor that is out of level for the racking or trucks
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will tell you honestly.

How the job changes by surface
Flexible floor sealants
Polyurethane floor sealants are available in a range of colours so ask if the colour matters.
Construction joints
Day joints on busy routes are prone to edge damage. Movement and traffic are both checked before we decide what goes in.
Do you need floor joint sealing in West Green?
Left open, joints fill with grit, wrap and wood fragments. That debris is hard and levers at the edges as wheels pass, speeding up the damage.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Dock area joints that have failed first
- A gap opening alongside old joint filler
- A rough ride across broken joints
- Broken arrises where pallet trucks cross
For a school such as West Green Primary School, playground and building joints can be done in the holidays.
Questions to ask before you book
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
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.
FAQs: West Green
Are the floor joints in an older unit in Crawley worth resealing?
Generally yes, provided the arrises are still in reasonable shape. We will look at the joints, recommend a product for the traffic and movement, and say if any edges need repair before sealing.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Crawley Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work usually takes a day or more, depending on the metres of joint and how many zones the floor is split into. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
Is colour matching possible?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Can you fill joints where the arrises have spalled?
Edge condition is recorded when we look at the floor. Damaged edges are flagged up front, so nothing is filled that won’t hold.
Does the weather affect the work?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
How soon can traffic go back on the floor?
Cure times vary with the product and how cold the slab is. We will give you a time for each zone before we start.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Site rules come first: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we are cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you, and each area is checked before we leave it. For a site in West Green, we plan so the whole job is done in one go where possible. Clear photographs and measurements help us bring the right products.
- Each area is assessed for joint width, arris damage and the wheels that cross it.
- A fixed quote follows, listing the treatment for each area and the order of work.
- Old filler, debris and contamination are cut or routed out back to clean concrete.
- We vacuum each run and prime it if the chosen product requires a primer.
- We fill each joint to depth and finish it flush so wheels roll straight across.
- The area is handed back once it has cured enough to take traffic.
What we need from you
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Let us know about inductions and permits
