DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
About our floor joint sealing in Bowsey Hill
Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. We seal them with a flexible, water-resistant sealant so water and dirt can’t get in. Typical jobs include cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens and chipped and open joints in warehouse floors, across wet room & bathroom floors, concrete floor joints and tiled floors.
Around Bowsey Hill, 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.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

New homes and floors in Bowsey Hill
Across Wokingham, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Paul's Mission Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Rented homes near Wargrave station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. Managing a site like Crazies Hill CofE Primary School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Common questions in Bowsey Hill
Can you do floor joint sealing in Bowsey Hill?

Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, always. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. Where a floor meets a bath panel, kitchen plinth or skirting in a wet area, we use a flexible silicone.
Why it’s worth doing now in Bowsey Hill
The right product depends on the floor and the traffic: flexible sealant for skirting and tiles, silicone in wet areas, and floor-joint products for concrete. Using the wrong one is why many floor joints fail. Older cottages and farmhouses around Bowsey Hill can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
Why book with us
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it.
A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and the edges sound.
