How long does floor joint sealing take?
A typical job takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.

It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Chale Green
Concrete floors in warehouses and units have joints that take heavy wear. Each is resealed with a floor-joint product suited to what runs over it. We work on commercial floors, concrete floor joints and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are open joints that fill with dirt and gaps opening between the floor and skirting.
For a small place like Chale Green, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we have gone.

How we quote for floor joint sealing
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- The product the joint needs
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The size of the job
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What to tell us for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
Lift furniture rather than sliding it over sealed joints. Dragging can tear the bead.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further and are harder to clean out.

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 just mention it when you contact us.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
What we’re called out for in Chale Green
Decorators’ caulk is often used along skirting because it’s cheap and paintable. In a joint that moves or gets wet, it splits, which is why so many skirting joints look broken.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Tiled floors with no room to move
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St. James' Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
What to look for in a quote
- What the cure time is
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
