About our floor joint sealing in Doddinghurst Common
In kitchens and bathrooms, the joint where the floor meets a bath panel, plinth or skirting takes mop water every day. A flexible silicone seal keeps it out so water and dirt cannot get in. We work on tiled floors, commercial floors and thresholds, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint and skirting caulk that keeps splitting.
In a village or hamlet like Doddinghurst Common, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Different surfaces, different methods

Commercial floors
Commercial washrooms and kitchens have floor joints that get wet constantly. We reseal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.

I let a flat near Shenfield station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you seal warehouse floor joints?
Yes. Concrete floor joints in warehouses and units are part of our work. The product is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
It depends on the sealant, so let us know first. We use a paintable flexible sealant on joints you plan to paint, and silicone elsewhere.
What should I tell you?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
What floor joint sealing looks like in Doddinghurst Common
Across Essex, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For buildings such as New Church of St Nicholas, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. For landlords with property near Shenfield station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Leave it or put it right?
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. Older cottages and farmhouses around Doddinghurst Common can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.
