What else we do in Enfield Wash
Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Why deal with it now?
Caulk is quick and cheap, but it cracks where the joint moves or gets wet, but the movement soon cracks it. A flexible sealant stretches instead and keeps the joint sealed. Around Enfield Wash, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Is it worth trying it myself?

Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Enfield Wash
Across Hertfordshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Community buildings like St George's Church are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Letting a property close to Turkey Street station? Then open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.
