Common questions in Finkley Down
Do you work for landlords with property near Andover station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Will you come out to Finkley Down?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Normally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.

Floor joint sealing in Finkley Down, done properly
Floor joint sealing is mostly about choosing the right product and preparing the joint. We remove what’s there first, the joint is cleaned and backed where needed, then the new sealant goes in. We’re often asked to deal with chipped and open joints in warehouse floors and threshold joints that have opened or worn, on tiled floors, wet room & bathroom floors and commercial floors.
Older homes in small places like Finkley Down often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further and are harder to clean out.
How the visit works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Somewhere as small as Finkley Down, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- A flexible sealant, or a floor-joint sealant for concrete, is applied in a colour to suit.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Leave it or put it right?
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 Finkley Down, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

When to call us in Finkley Down
Concrete floor joints break down when traffic runs over open or failed joints. Hard wheels damage the joint edges until the joint widens.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Tiled floors with no room to move
If you look after a building such as Vigo Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
