Trusted floor joint sealing in Burstow

What we cannot put right

We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:

  • Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing
  • Movement too big for a sealant joint
  • A tiled floor that needs relaying

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Floor joint sealing in Burstow, done properly

Good floor joints come down to the right product and clean, prepared edges. Old caulk, grout or failed sealant comes out first, the joint is cleaned and backed where needed, then the new sealant goes in. We work on thresholds, concrete floor joints and commercial floors, and the jobs we see most are caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and dirt and water collecting in open floor joints.

In a village or hamlet like Burstow, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Burstow

Can you do floor joint sealing in Burstow?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Burstow is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Do you work for landlords with property near Gatwick Airport station?

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Do you guarantee your work?

Yes. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, wherever you are.

Do you work on commercial floors?

Yes. We clean out the joints and reseal them with a product suited to the floor. Let us know about the traffic and we’ll quote.

Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?

Yes. Floor edges in bathrooms and kitchens get wet at every clean, so a flexible silicone is the right choice.

Can you match the sealant colour?

We help you choose a colour that suits. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.

Do I have to be there?

It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?

Often, yes. Where a floor needs one, we rake out grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant in a matching colour. Loose or cracked tiles need a tiler first.

Leave it or put it right?

Floor joints left open collect dirt that’s hard to clean out and makes the floor look worn. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean and look tidier. Older cottages and farmhouses around Burstow can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Why Burstow clients choose us

  • Homes, businesses and hotels
  • A choice of colours where the product allows
  • Arbo and Everbuild products
  • A sealant colour to suit the surroundings

Signs you need floor joint sealing in Burstow

Some floors were never given a perimeter gap or movement joint. As it expands, the edges lift or crack, and the sealant or grout breaks.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
  • Open joints that fill with dirt
  • Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
  • Open joints around bathroom floor edges

If you look after a building such as Oakwood School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • What product goes in the joint

New homes and floors in Burstow

Across Surrey, 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. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.

Community buildings like Church of St Bartholomew are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Letting a property close to Gatwick Airport station? Then open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Surface by surface

Skirting boards

Skirting gaps are one of the most common floor joints we seal. We take out any cracked caulk before sealing so the new sealant bonds.

Concrete floor joints

We clean concrete joints out thoroughly before sealing, vacuuming them clean. Backing goes in where the depth needs controlling.

What affects the cost of floor joint sealing

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • The product the joint needs
  • Working hours on commercial sites

Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.

Asking for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • Where the property is
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work

To get a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the location and a short description of the problem. You’ll have a clear quote before work begins.

What we do, step by step

When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere like Burstow needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
  2. Old material is removed from the joint.
  3. Edges are cleaned and dried.
  4. We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor.
  5. Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Ask for a quote

Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where and its rough size. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.

Can I do it myself?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
