Industrial Floor Joint Repairs
Get in TouchAt Expansion Joints, we specialise in industrial floor joint repairs, delivering robust solutions to extend the lifespan of concrete flooring across various facilities and the area. Our services cover repair methods such as epoxy infills, polyurea treatments, and concrete resurfacing, effectively addressing joint failures and surface spalling.
We cater to a wide range of industrial sectors, including warehouses, factories, and distribution centres, ensuring compliance with industry standards.
How Much Does Industrial Floor Joint Repair Cost?
Industrial floor joint repair typically costs between £20 and £50 per linear metre. The price can vary depending on the extent of the damage, the repair method chosen, and the specific materials required.
Epoxy infill repairs generally cost less than polyurea treatments, with epoxy well-suited for moderate loads and typical applications, and polyurea offering faster curing times ideal for high-traffic areas. Moreover, polyurethane sealants may be used when flexibility and chemical resistance are priorities.
Factors such as the size of the facility, accessibility, and the condition of the existing floor can also influence the overall cost. Large warehouses, for instance, might necessitate more extensive preparations and equipment like concrete saws and grinders, adding to the complexity of the job.
We also ensure that our repairs comply with relevant standards, such as the BS 8204 for concrete floors. Contact us for a tailored quote based on your facility's needs.

What Types of Industrial Floor Joint Repairs Are Available?
We offer a variety of industrial floor joint repair methods to suit different requirements and conditions:
Epoxy Infill: Durable and cost-effective for minor joint repairs. This method is suited for areas subjected to chemical spillage, as epoxy is resistant to most industrial chemicals.
Polyurea Joint Fillers: Fast-curing and ideal for high-traffic areas, this method can be applied even in low temperatures, and it withstands significant thermal expansion and contraction, making it suitable for refrigerated warehouses.
Concrete Resurfacing: Restores larger areas of damage for a uniform finish. We employ shot blasting equipment to prepare surfaces, ensuring excellent adhesion and longevity of the new layer.
Sealant Replacement: Prevents future damage by maintaining joint flexibility. We use polyurethane or silicone sealants that comply with industry standards like BS EN 14188, ensuring durability and reliability.
Choosing the right method depends on factors such as the current state of your flooring, the anticipated traffic load, and specific environmental conditions. Contact us to discuss your needs and find the best solution for your space.
How Long Do Industrial Floor Joint Repairs Take?
The time required for industrial floor joint repairs depends on the repair method and the scale of work. Small repairs using epoxy infill can be completed in as little as a day.
Epoxy infills are ideal for minor cracks and typically cure within 24 to 48 hours, allowing operations to resume quickly. Meanwhile, larger projects involving concrete resurfacing, which might include diamond grinding or shot blasting to ensure a smooth finish, typically take two to three days.
The curing process is essential for ensuring durability and can vary from a few hours for fast-setting materials to up to 48 hours.
For larger-scale work, such as warehouse floors or manufacturing plants, coordination is key to minimising disruptions. We use self-levelling compounds where applicable, which enhance the floor's surface and brace it against heavy machinery.
Our trained technicians focus on project efficiency to reduce facility downtime while ensuring quality workmanship that meets industry standards. Contact us to discuss a tailored timeframe for your specific project needs.
