Can I do it myself?

Is there a guarantee?
Yes. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. Where a floor meets a bath panel, kitchen plinth or skirting in a wet area, we use a flexible silicone so water cannot get into the gap.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.
Will it make a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Floor joint sealing in Binsey, done properly
Across Binsey, we seal floor and skirting joints in homes and businesses. Each job starts with looking at the floor and the gap, because the right sealant depends on both. Common call-outs are for cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint and threshold joints that have opened or worn, on thresholds, concrete floor joints and wet room & bathroom floors.
Older homes in small places like Binsey often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Common problems we fix in Binsey
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open, then close again in damper months.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Botley School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.
Questions to ask before you book
- Are they insured?
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- How hidden problems are handled
Surface by surface
Thresholds
Thresholds between rooms meet two floors and often a door frame. We seal them with a flexible sealant that suits both sides.
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.

What happens if it’s left?
Filling a skirting gap with caulk looks fine at first, but the movement soon cracks it. A flexible sealant stretches instead, so the joint stays closed. In a small place like Binsey, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why Binsey clients choose us
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Colour agreed with you before we start
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Look at floor joints each spring
Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Light foot traffic is generally fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels, and we will tell you both.
A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and the edges sound.
Floor joint sealing around Binsey
Floors around Oxfordshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Letting a property close to Oxford station? Then a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. Community buildings like Church of St Margaret are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
