Joints and finishes in Dry Sandford homes
Across Oxfordshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Managing a site like Dry Sandford Primary School? Then entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Helen, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

When can I walk on the floor?
That varies with the sealant and the room. Before we leave, we tell you when it can be walked on, mopped and driven over so there’s no guesswork.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Floors shrink and settle, especially in the first year or two and through the heating season opens the gap. Rigid fillers split, so we use a flexible sealant.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it in a colour to suit.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
If you tell us beforehand, yes. Joints that will be painted get a paintable product and wet areas get silicone.
When to call us in Dry Sandford
Wheels crossing an unfilled concrete joint chip its edges. Pallet trucks and trolleys knock the edges away and the joint gets wider.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
If you let a flat or house near Radley station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Why deal with it now?
The right product depends on the floor and the traffic: flexible sealant for skirting and tiles, silicone in wet areas, and floor-joint products for concrete. Getting that choice wrong is a common reason joints fail. Around Dry Sandford, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first.
Why us?

What else we do in Dry Sandford
How the job changes by surface
Skirting boards
Skirting pulls away from the floor as floors shrink and settle. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking in a colour to suit.
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.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
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.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
