Floor joint sealing around Chase Cross

Floors around Essex run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.

Managing a site like Bower Park Academy? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St James, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. If you let a flat or house near Gidea Park station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

How the job changes by surface

Wet room and bathroom floors

Wet room floors rely on sound joints at the walls. It’s resealed with a sanitary silicone and we will say if the problem looks like more than the joint.

Concrete floor joints

Concrete floors have sawn or formed joints to control cracking. They’re resealed with a product chosen for what runs over them.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into 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.

Yes, Chase Cross is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.

Should I try DIY first?

You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.

Is caulk good enough for skirting?

Because caulk cracks where there’s movement or water. Floor edges move through the year, so a flexible sealant suits them better.

Can sealant along the skirting be painted?

On joints you want to paint, yes. Silicone in bathrooms and kitchens cannot be painted, so tell us your plans.

What sealant do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.
