Floor joint sealing in Billericay

Floor joint sealing in Billericay

Large tiled floors, and those over underfloor heating, often need movement joints. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant in a matching colour. We work on wet room & bathroom floors, concrete floor joints and thresholds, and the jobs we see most are dirt and water collecting in open floor joints and grout cracking in a straight line across a floor.

In a town like Billericay, 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.

Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

What the job involves on each surface

Commercial floors

Shops, offices, warehouses and units all have floor joints that need sealing. We talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.

Wet room and bathroom floors

Bathroom floors meet baths, trays, panels and skirting. They’re sealed with a flexible, anti-fungal silicone to keep water out of the edges.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Billericay

Floors around Essex run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.

Managing a site like Sunnymede Junior School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. Rented homes near Billericay station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

Letting agents and landlords in Billericay can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

When something else is needed

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
  • Structural movement or subsidence
  • Tiles that have lifted or broken

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Where we work in Billericay

  • Wet room & bathroom floors
  • Tiled floors
  • Commercial floors
  • Skirting boards
  • Concrete floor joints
  • Thresholds

Common problems we fix in Billericay

Some floors were never given a perimeter gap or movement joint. It pushes against the walls and skirting as it expands, and the sealant or grout breaks.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
  • Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
  • Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
  • Worn sealant at door thresholds

For buildings such as Church of St Mary Magdalene, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is VAT in the price?
  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • How long to leave it before use

Our hiring checklist

What happens if it’s left?

Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. Sealing them now is a short job in most rooms. In Billericay, as anywhere, most leaks start as a small gap in a joint, and they’re far easier to fix early.

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first.

Why us?

  • Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
  • Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
  • Over 20 years’ experience

What affects the quote in Billericay

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The size of the job
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove

Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Asking for a quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • Where the property is
  • The type of property
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

To get a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the location and a short description of the problem. We’ll give you a clear quote before any work starts.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Billericay

Can you do floor joint sealing in Billericay?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Billericay is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.

What guarantee comes with floor joint sealing in Billericay?

All our work, in Billericay and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

What should I tell you?

Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Why not just use caulk?

Not where the floor moves or gets wet. Caulk cracks as the floor moves, so the gap comes back. A flexible sealant is the better choice.

Do you use a paintable sealant?

If you tell us beforehand, yes. Joints that will be painted get a paintable product, and silicone elsewhere.

How long does the job take?

It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.

Will you leave a mess?

Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.

Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?

Movement from drying timber and settling floors opens the gap. Caulk tends to crack; a flexible sealant doesn’t.

How it works

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. In Billericay, parking is rarely complicated, though it helps to know about driveways or restrictions, and mention if the work is upstairs, in a flat or high on the outside.

  1. First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
  2. We remove what’s in the joint now.
  3. The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
  4. We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
  5. We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Getting a quote

Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.
