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.
Retail and showroom floors
Retail joints see trolleys, footfall and scrubber-driers. The product is chosen for that traffic and the appearance is part of the brief.
Floor joint sealing in Wix Green: the local picture
Wix Green lies within about 3 miles of the sea. External movement joints in car parks, ramps and yards near the coast take salt and wind-driven rain on top of traffic, and edges left open tend to break up faster. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Outside joints in yards and car parks still have to be dry before sealing, and winter de-icing salt on car parks and ramps works into any open joint.
Schools like Wix and Wrabness Primary School often have long brick elevations with movement joints that age quietly. For buildings at a park such as Oak Business Park, 1.8 miles to the south of Wix Green, brick and panel movement joints are easy to forget until one leaks.

The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you’re ready.

Pricing a project or setting a maintenance budget? We will quote against your scope and drawings you can plan around. If you have questions first, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
When something else is needed

- Level or flatness problems across the floor
- A floor that rocks at the joints, which needs a structural fix
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
After the work
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Keep grit out of unfilled joints in the meantime
- Hold traffic back until the product has cured
- Let us know what the floor is cleaned with
- Record damaged joints with a photo and a location
Ask drivers not to drag forks or pallets along the floor. Even a well-filled joint can be damaged by steel scraping along it.
Treating joints while the arrises are sound keeps the work simple. After the edges go, repairs come into it, with more downtime and more disruption.

Common questions from Wix Green clients
Does the sea air around Wix Green change the choice of sealant?
It can. Driven rain and salt are tougher on outside sealant than sheltered inland conditions. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.
Is Wix Green too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Wix Green is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, as many construction sites ask for.
How long before trucks can use the joints?
The wait is set by the product’s cure time, and cold floors slow it down. We plan the phasing so that waiting time fits your operation.
What do you need from us to quote?
A rough joint length, a few photos and a site plan let us give a quick quote. For larger floors, a site visit is often best so give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us to set one up.
Is the floor joint work guaranteed?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee, and we hold public liability insurance.
Should floor joints be filled or sealed?
The answer comes from the traffic and the joint’s movement. Trafficked joints on truck routes usually need a semi-rigid filler to support the edges and joints with more movement take a flexible sealant.
