Floor joint sealing in Breeds
Floors move, and the joint where they meet a wall, skirting, threshold or another floor has to move with them. We seal skirting gaps, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints using a product that suits the floor. We work on skirting boards, wet room & bathroom floors and commercial floors, and common reasons people get in touch are grout cracking in a straight line across a floor and concrete floor joints that have broken down.
Older homes in small places like Breeds often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

How the job changes by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floors meet baths, trays, panels and skirting. They’re sealed with a flexible, anti-fungal silicone.
Tiled floors
Tiled floors need movement joints at edges and across large areas. Where needed, a line of grout is replaced with flexible sealant coloured to suit.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Large cracks that need a surveyor
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.

Floor joint sealing in Breeds: local notes
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. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Rented homes near Beaulieu Park station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. Community buildings like Church of SS Mary and Laurence are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. If you look after a building such as Chelmer Valley High School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Advice
Landlord and commercial work in Breeds
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
Silicone sealant is not made to take paint. If the joint will be painted, tell us beforehand so we use a paintable sealant.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact.
Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
