The process
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint from start to finish. Somewhere as small as Fernham, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Look at floor joints each spring
Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Light foot traffic is usually fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels so we will give you each time.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. Resealing early keeps it out.
What sealant work cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Large cracks that need a surveyor
- Leaks from a failed tanking system
- Tiles that have lifted or broken

Common problems we fix in Fernham
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. The edges pull away from the skirting and anything rigid cracks.
The most common problems we see are:
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
If you look after a building such as Faringdon Community College, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes. Concrete floor joints in warehouses and units are part of our work. The product is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
How much does floor joint sealing cost in Fernham?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before we start.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Movement from drying timber and settling floors. Caulk tends to crack; a flexible sealant does not.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Only on dry joints that don’t move. It splits once the floor shifts. A flexible sealant is the better choice.
Why act early in Fernham
Regrouting a cracked line in a tiled floor rarely fixes it. If the floor needs to move there, the grout will crack again. Replacing that line with flexible sealant gives it somewhere to go. Older cottages and farmhouses around Fernham can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Surface by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Mop water gets into any open joint at the edge of a bathroom floor. A flexible seal stops water running into the gap.
Thresholds
Thresholds between rooms meet two floors and often a door frame. A flexible sealant suits both floor finishes.
