Common call-outs are for gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens, across concrete floor joints, tiled floors and thresholds.

Cadmore End: your questions answered
Will you come out to Cadmore End?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you do floor joint sealing in Cadmore End?
Yes, Cadmore End 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.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes, at the edges and along suitable lines. We remove the grout and seal the line with flexible sealant, giving the floor room to move.
How long does the job take?
As a guide, most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
It depends on the sealant, so let us know first. We use a paintable flexible sealant on joints you plan to paint and wet areas get silicone.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
When can I walk on the floor?
We’ll tell you before we leave. It depends on the sealant, and light foot traffic is usually fine before wet cleaning or wheels.
Different surfaces, different methods
Skirting boards
Skirting-to-floor joints are a regular job for us. The old caulk is removed first.
Tiled floors
Perimeter joints in tiled floors should be sealant, not grout. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing
- Tiles that have lifted or broken
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Cadmore End
Floors around Buckinghamshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Schools such as Cadmore End CofE School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. Community buildings like Church of St Mary Le Moor are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Near you in Cadmore End
Around Cadmore End, our work takes us to homes and buildings near The Peacock pub, among other places. The nearest railway station is Saunderton station, roughly 3.8 miles north-east of the centre. A little further out are Wycombe Hospital (4.8 miles east). The countryside around Cadmore End includes Bald Hill and Yoesden.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
Do not paint over silicone. If the joint will be painted, tell us beforehand so we use a paintable sealant.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. A sound seal stops that happening.
Common problems we fix in Cadmore End
Caulk is the usual filler for skirting. It cracks where there’s movement or water, which is why so many skirting joints look broken.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
Rented homes near Saunderton station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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 fails, we can still redo it.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before work begins. The work usually takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. In a small place like Cadmore End, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
- We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
