Common problems we fix in Colliers End
Caulk is the usual filler for skirting. In a joint that moves or gets wet, it splits, which is why so many skirting joints look broken.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
Community buildings like St Mary's are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Should I try it myself first?
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 fails, we can still redo it.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

Floor joint sealing around Colliers End
Floors around Hertfordshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Rented homes near Ware station change hands often, and a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. Schools such as Ralph Sadleir Middle School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Can you reseal concrete floor joints in an industrial unit?
Yes. We clean out the joints and reseal them with a product suited to the floor. Let us know about the traffic and we will quote.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Movement from drying timber and settling floors pulls the skirting and floor apart. Rigid fillers split, so we use a flexible sealant.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. These joints get wet every time the floor is cleaned, so a flexible silicone is the right choice.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Not where the floor moves or gets wet. It splits once the floor shifts and the gap reopens. A flexible sealant is the better choice.
Why it’s worth doing now in Colliers End
The right product depends on the floor and the traffic: skirting and tiled floors need flexibility, wet areas need water resistance and concrete needs a product suited to wheels. Getting that choice wrong is a common reason joints fail. Older cottages and farmhouses around Colliers End can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
