Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Keep dirt out of the joints
Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Light foot traffic is usually fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels, and we will tell you both.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Sealing them early protects the edges and the floor safer.
Floor joint sealing in Bushey Heath
Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone, which is not made to be painted. We’re often asked to deal with gaps at thresholds between rooms and open joints that fill with dirt, across concrete floor joints, commercial floors and skirting boards.
In and around Bushey Heath, floors range from older timber boards to tiles and newer finishes, each moving in its own way. The sealant at skirtings and thresholds has to suit the floor it meets.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bushey Heath and across Hertfordshire.

Common questions in Bushey Heath
Do you cover smaller places like Bushey Heath?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Carpenders Park station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours for many products, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
That depends on the amount of work, but most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
If you tell us beforehand, yes. Joints that will be painted get a paintable product.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
We will tell you before we leave. It depends on the sealant, and walking on it generally comes before mopping or wheeled traffic.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
What happens on the day
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. A visit to Bushey Heath is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

What the job involves on each surface
Thresholds
Two different floors meeting at a threshold move differently. We bridge them with a flexible bead.
Tiled floors
Perimeter joints in tiled floors should be sealant, not grout. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.
When it is not the sealant
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
- Movement too big for a sealant joint
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Bushey Heath
