About floor joint sealing in Slough

Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is generally the better choice because it handles water. Common call-outs are for gaps opening between the floor and skirting and concrete floor joints that have broken down, on skirting boards, concrete floor joints and tiled floors.

There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors in most cases.

We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
Edges are cleaned and dried.
We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor.
Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.

Where we work in Slough

From Cippenham, Chalvey and Britwell to its smaller places, Slough has new developments as well as older homes. Snagging in new homes and floor joints in older ones are both part of the work.

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outdoor sealant still needs a dry day and clean surfaces, so outside work in Slough is planned around the forecast.

Slough: If you look after a building such as Herschel Grammar School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. If you let a flat or house near Slough station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Different surfaces, different methods

Concrete floor joints

Open concrete joints chip at the edges when wheels cross them. Sealing them supports the edges.

Commercial floors

Commercial washrooms and kitchens have floor joints that get wet constantly. We reseal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.

What affects the cost of floor joint sealing

Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

How easy the joints are to reach
Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Whether there’s mould to deal with
How many areas need sealing

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before any work starts.

Asking for a quote

When you contact us, these details help:

Any access issues, like height or stairs
If someone has resealed it before
Photos by email, if that’s easy
The address or postcode of the job

We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job, and pictures are welcome.

When it is not the sealant

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. It will not solve:

Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
Bouncy or failing floorboards
Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing

Signs you need floor joint sealing

Caulk is the usual filler for skirting. It cracks where there’s movement or water, which is why so many skirting joints look broken.

Common reasons people contact us are:

Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
Concrete floor joints that have broken down
Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints

Slough questions

Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?

Yes. We cut out any old sealant or caulk and reseal with flexible silicone in a colour to suit.

How long does the job take?

As a guide, most jobs take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.

Do the sealants smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.

Will you leave a mess?

Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?

Movement from drying timber and settling floors. Rigid fillers split, so we use a flexible sealant.
