The process
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. For a village or hamlet like Crockham Heath, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and tooled.
- We check the joints and explain the aftercare.
Getting ready for the visit

How we quote for floor joint sealing
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- The product the joint needs
- The number of rooms or windows
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Any mould that needs treating
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Roughly how big the job is
Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job and send photos if you have them.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. Resealing early keeps it out.
What happens if it’s left?
Dirt builds up in open joints, and they look untidy. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean and look tidier. Older cottages and farmhouses around Crockham Heath can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Signs you need floor joint sealing in Crockham Heath
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
Community buildings like Parish Church of St Michael are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
Questions to ask before you book
- What guarantee comes with the work
- How the colour is chosen
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
