Floor Joint Sealing in Cricklewood
Problem with your floor joints in Cricklewood? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Floor joint sealing in Cricklewood
Good floor joints come down to the right product and clean, prepared edges. Old caulk, grout or failed sealant comes out first, the joint is cleaned and backed where needed, then the new sealant goes in. If you are dealing with skirting that has pulled away from the floor and gaps between floors and kitchen plinths, we can put it right.
London homes range from new-build flats to period conversions with new floors laid over old boards. Wherever a floor meets a wall, a skirting or a threshold, the joint has to allow for movement, in Cricklewood as anywhere.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Cricklewood
Can you do floor joint sealing in Cricklewood?
Yes, Cricklewood 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, and we will send you a clear quote.
I let a flat near Cricklewood station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. Wet-area floor joints are sealed with a flexible, water-resistant silicone so water can’t get into the gap.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
On joints you want to paint, yes. Silicone in bathrooms and kitchens cannot be painted so mention it when you get a quote.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. We will tell you when we quote.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Common problems we fix in Cricklewood
An open floor joint fills with dirt and water. In kitchens and bathrooms, mop water gets into the gap.
The problems people generally mention when they call include:
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
Schools such as Anson Primary School are buildings too, and floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- What product goes in the joint
- Whether VAT is included
- What the cure time is
The process
We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. For a job in Cricklewood, parking and access are the things to plan: let us know about parking, the floor we’ll be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Why deal with it now?
Putting new grout into a crack that keeps reappearing does not last. If the floor needs to move there, the grout will crack again. Replacing that line with flexible sealant gives it somewhere to go. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

What the job involves on each surface
Commercial floors
Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Wet room and bathroom floors
In a wet room, the floor-to-wall joint is a key line of defence. We reseal it with a flexible silicone suited to wet areas.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
When something else is needed
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before work begins. Sealant will not put right:
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Movement too big for a sealant joint
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Joints and finishes in Cricklewood homes
Floors around Greater London 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. Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent.
For landlords with property near Cricklewood station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. Cricklewood is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
