About our floor joint sealing in Burford
We seal floor joints in homes, offices and commercial buildings across Burford. Each job starts with looking at the floor and the gap, since that decides which sealant suits. We work on wet room & bathroom floors, skirting boards and tiled floors, and people most often call us about caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and chipped and open joints in warehouse floors.
For a new home in or near Burford, it’s worth checking the sealant early. Gaps at skirtings, shower seals pulling away and missing mastic around frames are common snags.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Burford as everywhere else we work.

How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself normally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint, depending on the size of the job. For a job in Burford, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and tooled.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice
Your questions about floor joint sealing in Burford
Do you work for landlords with property near Shipton station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Is Burford in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Burford is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
When can I walk on the floor?
Follow the cure time we give you. Light use comes first, cleaning and heavy traffic later.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
On joints you want to paint, yes. Silicone doesn’t take paint.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Can you reseal concrete floor joints in an industrial unit?
Yes. Concrete floor joints in warehouses and units are part of our work. The product is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Do you need floor joint sealing in Burford?
New floors settle once they’re in use. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so, and rigid fillers crack.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St John the Baptist, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Keep dirt out of the joints
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Light foot traffic is usually fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Sealing them early protects the edges and the surface smoother.
What affects the cost of floor joint sealing
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- How many areas need sealing
- Access and height
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The type of sealant required
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job.
Floor joint sealing around Burford
Across Oxfordshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you let a flat or house near Shipton station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. If you look after a building such as Burford Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

Why act early in Burford
Floor joints left open collect dirt that is hard to clean out and makes the floor look worn. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean. In an older home around Burford, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
