About our floor joint sealing in Fairlop
In commercial and industrial units, concrete floor joints take a hammering from wheels and traffic. Each is resealed with a floor-joint product suited to what runs over it. If you’re dealing with chipped and open joints in warehouse floors and rigid edge joints in tiled floors, we can put it right, on wet room & bathroom floors, skirting boards and commercial floors alike. Some people call us the mastic man, others the silicone man or the sealant specialist, but the work in Fairlop is the same: old material out, joints prepared and the right product used.
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments. Snagging there often goes through the developer or managing agent, and shower seals that fail early, skirting joints that open up and gaps at thresholds are all common snags.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
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.
Do you need floor joint sealing in Fairlop?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open, then close again in damper months.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Open joints that fill with dirt
If you let a flat or house near Seven Kings station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

What the job involves on each surface
Thresholds
Where a tiled floor meets timber or carpet, the joint takes movement from both sides. A flexible sealant bridges them.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Floor joints in bathrooms take water every day. We seal them with anti-fungal sanitary silicone to keep water out of the edges.
How it works
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint and we leave things clean and tidy. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Fairlop. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- 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 if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Why act early in Fairlop
Caulk is quick and cheap, but it cracks where the joint moves or gets wet, so the gap reappears. A flexible sealant moves with the floor. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Fairlop, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Keep dirt out of the joints
Silicone sealant is not made to take paint. If you plan to paint, we will use a paintable product.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Sealing them early protects the edges and the surface smoother.
FAQs for Fairlop
I let a flat near Seven Kings station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you cover Fairlop for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Fairlop is part of that. Just phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Because caulk cracks where there’s movement or water. Floor edges move through the year, so a flexible sealant suits them better.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we are fully insured too.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Other services in Fairlop
New homes and floors in Fairlop
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent. Floors around Greater London run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Schools such as Fairlop Primary School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Francis of Assisi, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
