Common problems we fix in East Hanney
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St James, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in East Hanney
Large tiled floors, and those over underfloor heating, often need movement joints. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant coloured to suit the grout. Typical jobs include threshold joints that have opened or worn and open joints around bathroom floor edges, on wet room & bathroom floors, commercial floors and tiled floors.
Around East Hanney, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Cone off the area if needed until it’s ready.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen.
East Hanney questions
Is East Hanney in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, East Hanney is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
Is there a guarantee on floor joint sealing in East Hanney?
All our work, in East Hanney and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
We give you a cure time for each joint. Light use comes first, cleaning and heavy traffic later in most cases.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
In many cases, yes. Where a floor needs one, we rake out grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant in a matching colour. If tiles are loose, that needs fixing first.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
Where the skirting will be painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Silicone won’t take paint, so it’s kept for wet areas and unpainted joints.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Joints and finishes in East Hanney homes
Floors around Oxfordshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Managing a site like St James Church of England Primary School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

How the job changes by surface
Skirting boards
Skirting gaps are one of the most common floor joints we seal. The old caulk is removed first so the new sealant bonds.
Concrete floor joints
Sawn joints in concrete floors control where it cracks. They’re resealed with a product chosen for what runs over them.
What we do, step by step
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. The job normally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In a small place like East Hanney, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor and smooth it.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about any water getting in
