How we handle floor joint sealing in Bennetts End
Concrete floors in warehouses and units have joints that take heavy wear. We reseal them with a product chosen for the movement and the traffic. Common call-outs are for skirting that has pulled away from the floor and perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout, on wet room & bathroom floors, skirting boards and tiled floors.
In smaller places like Bennetts End, new homes tend to come as small developments or single plots. The sealant around baths, showers, frames and skirtings needs to be right from the start.

Bennetts End questions
Will you come out to Bennetts End?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Apsley station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. Wet-area floor joints are sealed with a flexible, water-resistant silicone to keep mop water out.
How long does the job take?
A typical job takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
The process
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Parking around Bennetts End is usually easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
- We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
When it isn’t the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Structural movement or subsidence
- Leaks from a failed tanking system
- Concrete repairs beyond the joint
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
