Aftercare tips

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Avoid sloshing water against skirting
  • Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
  • Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
  • Look at floor joints each spring

Check the joints after the first winter. If anything has opened, it’s easy to reseal.

Small gaps are quick to seal. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further over time.

Floor joint sealing in Cold Christmas, done properly

Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone, which isn’t made to be painted. We work on commercial floors, skirting boards and thresholds, and the jobs we see most are gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and dirt and water collecting in open floor joints.

For a small place like Cold Christmas, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

The process

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Somewhere like Cold Christmas needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
  2. We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
  3. The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
  4. We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
  5. We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice

Surface by surface

Commercial floors

Floor joint work in businesses can be planned around your hours. Out-of-hours working can be arranged where it’s needed.

Tiled floors

When grout cracks along a straight line, the floor is telling you it needs to move. We rake out that line and seal it if it’s in the right place.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Cold Christmas

Floors around Hertfordshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.

Letting a property close to Ware station? Then a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. For buildings such as Parish Church of St Mary, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Schools such as Thundridge Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

What affects the quote in Cold Christmas

There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:

  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • The number and length of the joints

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Asking for a quote

You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Roughly how big the job is

To get a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You’ll have a clear quote before work begins.

When something else is needed

To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

  • Floors that are uneven or need levelling
  • Large cracks that need a surveyor
  • Tiles that have lifted or broken

If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Tiled floors
  • Commercial floors

  • Thresholds

Why act early in Cold Christmas

Left open, concrete joints break down under traffic. A sealed joint supports the edges before they need a bigger repair. Around Cold Christmas, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
