Surface by surface
Flexible floor sealants
Movement joints, joints at walls and joints in lightly trafficked areas often take a flexible sealant. Closed-cell backing rod goes in first, keeping the bead shallow and gripping only the two faces.
Semi-rigid joint fillers
A semi-rigid filler is stiff enough to hold the arrises up when wheels cross. They tolerate little movement, so they suit joints where most shrinkage has already happened.

How the quote is worked out
To price the job, we consider:
- Access and working height
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- The product specified
- The site’s rules and procedures
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
What we need to price the job
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:
- The product your specification calls for
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- What the building is and how it’s used
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Looking after the joints
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Put loading bays at the top of the list
- Let us know what the floor is cleaned with
- Hold traffic back until the product has cured
- Allow for topping up joints as a new slab settles
Walk the main truck routes every few months and look along the joint lines. Look for separation down one side, new chips in the arris and debris gathering, and photograph anything that changes.
Regular inspection catches failing fills before the edges go. We can quote a programme that starts with the busiest areas so nothing is left to fail.

What else we do in Windmill Hill
Doing it in-house
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
On site: what to expect
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. The work itself usually takes between a day and a number of days, set by the joint lengths, the edge condition and the phasing you need, and we clear our waste as we work. If others near Windmill Hill need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- A floor survey records every joint, its edges and what crosses it.
- You receive a fixed quote showing products and phasing.
- Each joint is cut or routed back to clean, sound concrete.
- We extract the dust and prime the faces if the product needs it.
- Filler or sealant is placed to depth and finished flush.
- We hand each phase back when it can take traffic.
What we need from you
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
Quotes
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Advice
Why deal with it now?
Dirt and spillage gather in open joints where scrubber-driers can’t get it out. Where the floor is on show or needs to be kept clean, that is a problem. Filled joints are far simpler to keep clean. For buildings around smaller places like Windmill Hill, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
Why us?
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- Clear, fixed quotes
- Work to your specification and the manufacturer’s guidance
- Our applicators hold CSCS cards

Your questions answered
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Amberstone Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Will our site in Windmill Hill 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.
How long does a job like this take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Which sealant will you use?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Floors, slabs and movement joints in Windmill Hill
Central London is about 46 miles from Windmill Hill. Warehousing clusters around the motorways that ring and radiate from London; their floors carry heavy traffic every shift. Windmill Hill sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside joints in yards and car parks still have to be dry before sealing, and gritting in cold spells finds its way into open joints.
A healthcare site such as Amberstone Hospital (to the west of Windmill Hill) depends on car parks, ramps and service yards whose joints take traffic all day. Schools like Herstmonceux Church of England Primary School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly.
