How we handle floor joint sealing in Fair Oak
Floors move, and the joint where they meet a wall, skirting, threshold or another floor has to move with them. Skirting-to-floor gaps, tiled floor joints and concrete joints are all sealed with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. If you have grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant and skirting that has pulled away from the floor, we can help, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Fair Oak, 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, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Fair Oak and across West Berkshire.

New homes and floors in Fair Oak
Across West Berkshire, 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. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Letting a property close to Thatcham station? Then a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Paul, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Managing a site like Ashford Hill Primary School? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

Why deal with it now?
Waiting until the next redecoration can mean a winter of draughts and dirt in the gaps. It’s a quick job to seal them now. Older cottages and farmhouses around Fair Oak can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

How the job changes by surface
Thresholds
Threshold joints get a lot of feet, so we choose a hard-wearing, flexible product and neatly finished.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Wet room floors rely on sound joints at the walls. It’s resealed with a sanitary silicone and we’ll say if the problem looks like more than the joint.
Questions from Fair Oak
Do you cover Fair Oak for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Fair Oak is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Will you come out to Fair Oak?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Why not just use caulk?
Caulk can’t cope with movement or water. Floor edges move through the year, so a flexible sealant suits them better.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Generally, yes. Straight cracks in grout often show where a movement joint was needed. We rake out that line and seal it with flexible sealant.
How long does the job take?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Can you reseal concrete floor joints in an industrial unit?
Yes. We clean out the joints and reseal them with a product suited to the floor. Tell us what runs over the floor when you ask for a quote.
Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
Don’t paint over silicone. If you plan to paint, we will use a paintable product.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. Adding a movement joint early can stop cracks spreading to the tiles.
