FAQs for Church End

Yes, Church End is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is Church End in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Church End is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
We give you a cure time for each joint. Feet are generally fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.

Advice
What floor joint sealing looks like in Church End
Floors around Essex run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
If you let a flat or house near Great Chesterford station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. Managing a site like Ashdon Primary School? Then entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Different surfaces, different methods
Skirting boards
Skirting gaps are one of the most common floor joints we seal. The old caulk is removed first so the bead sits on a clean surface.
Commercial floors
Shops, offices, warehouses and units all have floor joints that need sealing. We talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
What happens if it’s left?
Floor joints left open collect dirt that’s hard to clean out, and they look untidy. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean and finishes the floor. Around Church End, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

- Whether it’s a home or a business
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email photos if that is easy.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t paint over silicone
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Look at floor joints each spring
Avoid flooding the floor when you clean. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further and are harder to clean out.
