Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
What sets the cost
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- The total length or number of joints
- Working within restricted access windows
- Location, for remote and island sites
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote when you are ready.
Details that help us quote
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Access details, including height
- Any specification or named product
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.
Floor joint sealing in Wormshill, done properly
A working floor can rarely be closed for days on end, so the work is split into zones and treated one area at a time. Share your site hours and access windows and the programme is built around them so the rest of the operation keeps going. Site teams most often ask us about unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit and soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints, across construction joints, saw-cut induced joints and retail and showroom floors. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Wormshill it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Jobs around smaller places like Wormshill are planned so the whole job is done in one visit, with the right materials on hand. Note joint widths and the traffic that uses them, and we’ll take it from there.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

For managing agents and facilities managers
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.

Joints that move: notes for Wormshill
Rainfall across the South East, Wormshill included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External joints still wait for dry conditions, while winter salting gets into any joint left open. At about 37 miles from central London, Wormshill is within reach of the capital. The South East has large numbers of industrial estates and warehouses along the motorway corridors.
A healthcare site such as KIMS hospital (6 miles west of Wormshill) depends on car parks, ramps and service yards whose joints take traffic all day. A campus such as Canterbury Christ Church University (to the south-west of Wormshill) has long runs of movement joint in its buildings, decks and paving.

Signs you need floor joint sealing in Wormshill
Pallet-truck and forklift wheels concentrate weight on a tiny contact patch. Where a joint is open, the wheel dips and strikes the far edge and those knocks chip the edge apart bit by bit.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Failing joints at loading bays and dock doors
- Unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit
- Trucks and loads jolting over damaged joints
- Soft sealant dragged out of trafficked joints
On a site such as Kent Science Park, which lies north-east of Wormshill, the movement joints are in car park slabs, paving and building elevations.
Questions to ask before you book
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
Diagnose, treat, sign off

Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- First, the zones and order of work are agreed with you.
- We point out joints whose edges need repairing first.
- Failed material and debris are removed and the joint cleaned.

Advice
Wormshill: questions and answers
Does your area include sites such as Kent Science Park, near Wormshill?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Wormshill, Kent Science Park among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Can you work on a hospital site such as KIMS hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Will you just go over the old 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.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
In many cases, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Do you repair broken joint edges?
Filling against broken edges doesn’t last. We’ll tell you if the joint edges need repairing first, so you can decide how to proceed.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
How many days will you need on site?
That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit usually takes a day for smaller units, with bigger warehouse floors programmed over several visits. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
Leave it or put it right?
Not every joint needs stripping out completely. If old material is sound on one face and only a fine gap has opened, it may not all have to come out and the quote shows which approach suits each run. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Wormshill. Send photographs of each area and we will quote for the lot.
A quote for floor joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Ask us for a fixed quote.

What the job involves on each surface
Retail and showroom floors
In retail, joints take trolleys, castors and cleaning machines rather than forklifts. The product is chosen for that traffic and the finish matters as much as the performance.
Isolation joints at walls and columns
We plan column and wall joints around racking and fixed plant so nothing has to move unexpectedly.
