How the quote is worked out

Before we quote, we look at:

  • The total length or number of joints
  • Joint width, depth and condition
  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits

Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.

What we need to price the job

A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:

  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings
  • Any dates the work must fit around
  • Any specification or named product

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 email us.

Questions about Wicken Bonhunt

Can you work at a site such as Funstons Commercial Centre, by Wicken Bonhunt?

Yes, sites like Funstons Commercial Centre are within our area, along with the rest of Wicken Bonhunt. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

Is Wicken Bonhunt off your patch?

No. Places such as Wicken Bonhunt are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

How long does a job like this take?

It depends on the scope, though a typical visit normally takes anything from a day for one loading bay to several days for a large floor, split into phases. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.

Can weather delay the job?

It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.

Which sealant will you use?

If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.

When can forklifts run over new joint filler?

Cure times vary with the product and how cold the slab is. You’ll get a reopening time for each area when we agree the phasing.

How do we get a quote for floor joints?

A rough joint length, a few photos and a site plan are typically enough for a quick quote. For larger floors, a site visit is often best so phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings to set one up.

Signs you need floor joint sealing in Wicken Bonhunt

Left open, joints fill with grit, wrap and wood fragments. Packed debris acts like a wedge every time a wheel crosses so the arrises break sooner.

Look out for the following:

  • Open saw cuts full of debris
  • Dock area joints that have failed first
  • A gap opening alongside old joint filler
  • Grimy joint lines spoiling a showroom floor

Another example is Bearwalden Business Park, 2.4 miles north-east of Wicken Bonhunt, where floors and yards would be done in stages around the occupiers.

  • Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
  • Their public liability cover

Our contractor checklist

How a job runs

Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we are in, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Jobs in and around smaller places like Wicken Bonhunt are usually planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.

  1. A floor survey records every joint, its edges and what crosses it.
  2. You receive a fixed quote showing products and phasing.
  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.

Before we start on site

  • Let us know about inductions and permits
  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Move anything stored against the joints

Request a quote

Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

How the job changes by surface

Forklift and pallet-truck routes

Trucks running over open joints wear wheels and shake loads. A filled joint lets wheels roll across and protects the floor.

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 with a flush finish.

Honest limits

Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:

  • Worn screed or surface finishes
  • Wide or random cracking that suggests a structural issue
  • Joint edges that have already broken away, which need repairing before filling (we’ll tell you if so)

If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.

Where we work in Wicken Bonhunt

  • Forklift and pallet-truck routes
  • Retail and showroom floors
  • Joints along racking aisles
  • Loading bays
  • Construction joints
  • Saw-cut induced joints

Traffic, movement and joints around Wicken Bonhunt

Wicken Bonhunt sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, yard and car park joints are only sealed when they’re dry and clean, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint. Less than 3 miles from Wicken Bonhunt there are two named estates and business parks. Sites like these are full of saw-cut floor joints, yard slabs and car park joints.

Parks like Funstons Commercial Centre (to the west of Wicken Bonhunt) combine paved areas, car parks and building elevations, each with joints that move. Schools like Joyce Frankland Academy often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly.
