Floor joint sealing in Earls Colne, done properly
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 wet room & bathroom floors, thresholds and skirting boards, and people most often call us about grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant and open joints around bathroom floor edges.
If you’ve bought a new home in or near Earls Colne, the first year or two is a good time to check the sealant. Gaps at skirtings, shower seals pulling away and missing mastic around frames are common snags.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Quotes for floor joint sealing in Earls Colne
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- Access and height
- Any mould that needs treating
- When we can work, for business premises
- The number and length of the joints
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
Helping us quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The type of property
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Look at floor joints each spring
Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Feet are normally fine before mopping or wheeled traffic, and we will tell you both.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner.

Joints and finishes in Earls Colne homes
Across Essex, 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.
Rented homes near Chappel & Wakes Colne station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. For buildings such as Parish Church of St Andrew, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Earls Colne Primary School and Nursery, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
When it is not the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
- Leaks from a failed tanking system
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

How the job changes by surface
Skirting boards
On painted skirting, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Where water is involved, silicone is the better choice.
Tiled floors
Large or heated tiled floors need room to move. Where needed, a line of grout is replaced with flexible sealant.
