The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours, depending on the length of joint, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Somewhere like Brandy Hole needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.

Advice
Floor joint sealing in Brandy Hole, done properly
Gaps along the bottom of skirting are common in new and older homes alike. Decorators’ caulk normally cracks where there’s movement, so we close it with a flexible sealant instead. Common call-outs are for open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards and rigid edge joints in tiled floors, across tiled floors, commercial floors and thresholds.
Work in a small place like Brandy Hole just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

How the job changes by surface
Concrete floor joints
Concrete floors have sawn or formed joints to control cracking. We reseal them with a floor-joint product suited to the traffic.
Tiled floors
Large or heated tiled floors need room to move. Where needed, a line of grout is replaced with flexible sealant coloured to suit.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Concrete repairs beyond the joint
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Brandy Hole: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near South Woodham Ferrers station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Can you do floor joint sealing in Brandy Hole?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Brandy Hole is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
What information do you need?
Let us know what needs doing and where, with pictures by email if possible. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk works on still, dry joints, but it splits where the joint moves or gets wet. We use a flexible sealant for most skirting and floor joints.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it in a colour to suit.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
Where you plan to paint, we do. Silicone doesn’t take paint.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Normally, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we agree the colour with you before any work starts.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
What floor joint sealing looks like in Brandy Hole

Why act early in Brandy Hole
Dirt builds up in open joints, and they look untidy. A neat sealed joint is easier to clean and finishes the floor. Around Brandy Hole, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
