About our floor joint sealing in Bicester
In kitchens and bathrooms, the joint where the floor meets a bath panel, plinth or skirting takes mop water every day. A flexible silicone seal keeps it out. We work on tiled floors, concrete floor joints and commercial floors, and the jobs we see most are perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout and gaps at thresholds between rooms.
In a town like Bicester, skirting and floor joints open up as homes settle and floors move with the seasons. Those joints need a flexible sealant, as rigid filler soon cracks out.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting

Joints and finishes in Bicester homes
Across Oxfordshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
For buildings such as Church of St Edburg, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. If you look after a building such as Brookside Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

Water that gets past a floor joint can damage the floor beneath. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. In Bicester, as anywhere, most leaks start as a small gap in a joint, and early is when they’re cheapest and quickest to sort.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
Have a look at the joints once the heating season is over. If anything has opened, it’s easy to reseal.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further over time.
Questions from Bicester
Do you cover Bicester for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Bicester is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is floor joint sealing in Bicester guaranteed?
All our work, in Bicester and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before work begins.
When can I walk on the floor?
We will tell you before we leave. It depends on the sealant, and light foot traffic is usually fine before wet cleaning or wheels.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
