How we handle floor joint sealing in West Malling
A working floor can rarely be closed for days on end, so we phase the work aisle by aisle or bay by bay. Share your site hours and access windows and the programme is built around them so the rest of the operation keeps going. We work on loading bays, saw-cut induced joints and forklift and pallet-truck routes, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are joint fill separating from the concrete and trucks and loads jolting over damaged joints. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in West Malling tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Around West Malling, most floor and movement joint jobs are single buildings or yards, so we gather photographs and measurements first. That way the right materials come on the day and the job is done in one visit where possible.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. Should something we installed fail, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will come back to it.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
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.
Questions we are asked in West Malling
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Maidstone Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is a smaller place like West Malling outside your area?
Not at all. West Malling is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Who decides which product is used?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, tell us and we will confirm them with the quote.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
Cost factors for floor joints
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- How much existing material needs removing
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
What to include in your enquiry
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The site address and postcode
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
A handful of photographs and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or call 01277 525 020 or email us to discuss it first.
Do you need floor joint sealing in West Malling?
Joints near dock doors see colder air, rain blown in and water off vehicles, as well as the tightest turning loads. That is usually where joint failure starts.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
- Saw-cut joints left open and packed with grit
- Chipped and spalling edges along forklift routes
- Grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor
Campuses like University for the Creative Arts - Maidstone (4.4 miles east of West Malling) mix old and new buildings, with movement joints wherever they meet.
What to look for in a quote
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- Proof of insurance
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
Our process
Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit.

Isolation joints at walls and columns
Where racking or plant sits near column joints, access is agreed before we start so nothing has to move unexpectedly.
Saw-cut induced joints
Sawn joints make up most of the joint length in a typical industrial floor. Each one is cleaned out and filled to the specified depth, finishing flush with the slab.
Leave it or put it right?
An open joint is a modest filling job while its edges are sound. Wait until the edges have spalled and the concrete needs repairing before the joint can be filled which means more downtime in that zone. Over time, UV, weather and movement wear any sealant out. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
Pricing floor joints depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.
