Floor joint sealing in Bunce Common, done properly

Floor joint sealing is mostly about choosing the right product and preparing the joint. We remove what’s there first, then clean, back and seal the joint. We work on skirting boards, wet room & bathroom floors and concrete floor joints, and the jobs we see most are cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint and dirt and water collecting in open floor joints.

Around Bunce Common, 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.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Do you need floor joint sealing in Bunce Common?

A floor laid tight to the walls has no room to move. It pushes against the walls and skirting as it expands, and the sealant or grout breaks.

People generally contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
  • Threshold joints that have opened or worn
  • Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
  • Floor edges that trap water and grime

Community buildings like Church of St Bartholomew are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

What your quote should include

  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • The length of the guarantee

What we do, step by step

When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. In a small place like Bunce Common, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
  2. Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
  3. We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
  4. We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
  5. We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.

Preparing for the visit

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Different surfaces, different methods

Wet room and bathroom floors

Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A neat silicone joint keeps it out.

Concrete floor joints

Open concrete joints chip at the edges when wheels cross them. Sealing them supports the edges and keeps dirt out.

Should I try it myself first?

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

When something else is needed

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Movement too big for a sealant joint
  • Cracked or broken concrete slabs
  • Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler

If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we seal

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

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Use furniture pads near skirting
  • Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
  • Check skirting joints after the heating season
  • Don’t paint over silicone

Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Feet are generally fine before mopping or wheeled traffic so we will give you each time.

A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
