Concrete Joint Repairs — Expansion & Construction Joint Reinstatement
Concrete joints (expansion, construction, isolation) are designed to move — and when they fail, they take the surrounding floor with them. F Wilding Ltd specialises in joint repairs and reinstatement UK-wide, before or after resin flooring installation.
What is joint repairs?
Failed joints are cut out to a defined profile, cleaned, backer rod fitted, and re-sealed with a flexible two-pack polyurethane sealant compatible with resin flooring. For heavy trafficked joints we install proprietary joint arris protection.
Where and when we use it
Warehouse aisle joints under forklift traffic, cold store isolation joints, expansion joints in large slabs, construction joints in phased pours.
Key benefits
What makes joint repairs the right prep method for the right job:
- Cut back to sound arris
- Flexible PU sealant — accommodates movement
- Proprietary arris protection where required
- Fast-cure options for live sites
- Compatible with adjacent resin flooring
Standalone or included in a resin flooring install
We carry out surface preparation as a standalone service for main contractors and other resin installers, and as a fully integrated phase of our own supply-and-install projects. Nationwide plant, direct labour, HEPA dust extraction and out-of-hours access as standard.
Frequently asked questions
Do we need to keep the joint in the resin floor?+
Yes — expansion and construction joints must be carried through the resin floor. Bridging them is the fastest way to crack the floor.
Can you work around a live operation?+
Almost every project we run is on a working site. We phase installs by bay, aisle or zone, work nights and weekends where required, and specify fast-cure MMA or polyaspartic systems on jobs where a single continuous shutdown isn't possible.
Do you cover the whole UK?+
Yes. F Wilding Ltd is Essex-based but the majority of our contracts are outside the South East — London, the Midlands, the North West, Yorkshire, the North East, Wales, Scotland and the South West. Travel, accommodation and out-of-hours access are priced into every quote.
