Why it’s worth doing now in Wickham Bishops
An open joint is a modest filling job while its edges are sound. Left until they break, it needs an edge repair before any filling can start, with longer closures to match. Older rural buildings around Wickham Bishops move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

FAQs: Wickham Bishops
Is Wickham Bishops too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Will our site in Wickham Bishops have to close for joint sealing?
Rarely. Work is phased around your operations. Tell us which hours and entrances we can use and we’ll plan from there.
Which sealant will you use?
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.
How soon can traffic go back on the floor?
Each product has its own cure time and cooler floors take longer. We plan the phasing so that waiting time fits your operation.
How long will the new sealant last?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Why is there a gap next to the joint filler?
Young concrete carries on shrinking for a long time, so a semi-rigid filler can part from one face. It is normally dealt with by topping up.
What do you need from us to quote?
Send details through our quote form or by email and tell us what runs on the floor. A fixed quote follows that shows the products and zones.
When it isn’t the sealant
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Joint edges that have already broken away, which need repairing before filling (we will tell you if so)
- Slab panels that rock or move under load
- Level or flatness problems across the floor
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will give you a straight answer.

From enquiry to sign-off
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Rural sites near Wickham Bishops may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- First comes a walk of the floor to record joint sizes, broken edges and traffic routes.
- You get a fixed quote with the product and the phasing set out.
- Each joint is cleared of old fill and dirt and taken back to clean, sound edges.
- Dust is extracted from the joint and primer applied where the manufacturer specifies it.
- 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
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Let us know about inductions and permits
Quotes
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. To get it moving, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.

Surface by surface
Semi-rigid joint fillers
Semi-rigid fillers are designed to support joint edges under hard wheels. They tolerate little movement, so they suit joints where most shrinkage has already happened.
Flexible floor sealants
Where joints move more, a flexible polyurethane floor sealant is often used. They give less edge support than semi-rigid fillers, so they suit lighter traffic or movement joints.

Maintenance after handover
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:
- Keep grit out of unfilled joints in the meantime
- Mention any aggressive cleaning regime at quote stage
- Make joint checks part of your floor inspections
- Remind operators to lift rather than drag
We will give you a time before trucks can run over the new joints and it pays to stick to it. Cones or barriers stop the first driver cutting the corner.
Joints are easiest to look after when someone checks them regularly. We can quote a programme that starts with the busiest areas and keeps on top of the rest.
