About our floor joint sealing in Cookley Green
Every floor moves a little, so its edges need a joint that can flex. We seal skirting gaps, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. We work on thresholds, commercial floors and skirting boards, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps opening between the floor and skirting and threshold joints that have opened or worn.
Work in a small place like Cookley Green just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

How the job changes by surface
Skirting boards
Skirting-to-floor joints are a regular job for us. We take out any cracked caulk before sealing so the bead sits on a clean surface.
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.
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

What sealant work cannot fix
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before work begins. Sealant will not put right:
- Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Skirting boards
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Commercial floors
- Thresholds
- Concrete floor joints
- Tiled floors
Do you need floor joint sealing in Cookley Green?
A floor laid tight to the walls has no room to move. As it expands, the edges lift or crack, and the sealant or grout breaks.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
Community buildings like Church of St Botolph are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

What else we do in Cookley Green
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will give you a quote.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
Do not paint over silicone. If you plan to paint, we’ll use a paintable product.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact and the floor safer.
What we do, step by step
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating. Expect the work to take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In a small place like Cookley Green, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
