Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Quotes for floor joint sealing in Butlocks Heath
We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How many areas need sealing
- Access and height
- Mould in or behind the old joints
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. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- If someone has resealed it before
- How we’d reach the joints
- What’s wrong with the joints now
If you are in Butlocks Heath and need floor joint sealing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us. Tell us what the problem is and where, and you will get a clear quote before work begins.
What the job involves on each surface
Tiled floors
A crack running along a grout line is often a sign of a missing movement joint. We rake out that line and seal it where it suits the floor.
Concrete floor joints
Old filler, dust and debris are cleaned out of the joint. Backing goes in where the depth needs controlling.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
Silicone sealant isn’t made to take paint. If you plan to paint, we will use a paintable product.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. Adding a movement joint early can stop cracks spreading to the tiles.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
When it isn’t the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Tiles that have lifted or broken
- Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
- Structural movement or subsidence
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
