How we handle floor joint sealing in Britwell Salome
Gaps along the bottom of skirting are common in new and older homes alike. Caulk tends to crack there, so we use a flexible sealant that moves with the floor. If you are dealing with concrete floor joints that have broken down and caulk that has cracked where the floor moves, we can put it right.
Work in a small place like Britwell Salome just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

- Tiled floors

- Commercial floors
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Thresholds
- Concrete floor joints
Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Look at floor joints each spring
Keep heavy furniture from dragging across the joints. Sharp edges can cut the sealant especially in the first few days.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and the edges sound.
Different surfaces, different methods
Commercial floors
Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Tiled floors
When grout cracks along a straight line, the floor is telling you it needs to move. We rake out that line and seal it if it’s in the right place.
What we’re called out for in Britwell Salome
Caulk is the usual filler for skirting. In a joint that moves or gets wet, it splits, which is why so many skirting joints look broken.
Look out for any of the following:
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Nicholas, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
