How we handle floor joint sealing in Bockmer End

Tiled floors can crack along the grout when there’s no room for movement. Where one is needed, we rake out the grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant coloured to suit the grout. If you have worn sealant at door thresholds and caulk that has cracked where the floor moves, we can help, on commercial floors, tiled floors and skirting boards alike.

Around Bockmer End, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

When to call us in Bockmer End

When a tiled floor has no movement joints, the grout takes the strain. Cracks often run straight along a line of joints, showing where a movement joint was needed.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Tiled floors with no room to move
  • Gaps at thresholds between rooms
  • Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
  • Concrete floor joints that have broken down

Community buildings like Church of St Peter and St Paul are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

How to choose a mastic man

Should I try it myself first?

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

When something else is needed

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Floors that are uneven or need levelling
  • Tiles that have lifted or broken
  • Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Keeping the joints in good condition

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
  • Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
  • Look at floor joints each spring
  • Use furniture pads near skirting

Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Feet are generally fine before mopping or wheeled traffic so we’ll give you each time.

Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and stops it getting worse.

New homes and floors in Bockmer End

Floors around Buckinghamshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.

Rented homes near Marlow station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. If you look after a building such as Danesfield School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?

Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking like caulk.

Are you insured?

Yes. We are fully insured.

Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?

Yes. These joints get wet every time the floor is cleaned, so we seal them with silicone suited to wet areas.

My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?

Often, yes, at the edges and along suitable lines. We remove the grout and seal the line with flexible sealant, giving the floor room to move.

How long before the joint can take traffic?

We’ll tell you before we leave. It depends on the sealant, and walking on it usually comes before mopping or wheeled traffic.

The process

Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. For a village or hamlet like Bockmer End, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
  2. Old material is removed from the joint.
  3. We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
  4. We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor.
  5. Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
