Why deal with it now?

Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Sealing them now keeps the problem at the surface. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and once it shows in Gallows Corner, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Floor joint sealing in Gallows Corner, done properly

Floor joint sealing is mostly about choosing the right product and preparing the joint. Old caulk, grout or failed sealant comes out first, then clean, back and seal the joint. We’re often asked to deal with perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout and failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels, across thresholds, wet room & bathroom floors and tiled floors.

Shops, offices and commercial units across London have hard-wearing floors with movement joints that need resealing as they wear, and new homes need their plot mastic finished properly before handover, in Gallows Corner and beyond.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

What the job involves on each surface

Commercial floors

Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.

Tiled floors

A crack running along a grout line is often a sign of a missing movement joint. We rake out that line and seal it.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Gallows Corner

Floors around Greater London run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal. Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent.

As a London address, Gallows Corner can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. Rented homes near Gidea Park station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Michael and All Angels Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

When it is not the sealant

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:

  • A tiled floor that needs relaying
  • Floors that are uneven or need levelling
  • Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Common questions in Gallows Corner

Is parking an issue for floor joint sealing in Gallows Corner?

Parking in Gallows Corner, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot, so mention what’s available when you book.

I let a flat near Gidea Park station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

What sealant do you use?

The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We’re fully insured.

Will I be able to paint over the new joint?

On joints you want to paint, yes. Silicone does not take paint, so tell us your plans.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.

Do you come to Gallows Corner?

Yes. We are based in Crawley and work across South East England, London and Scotland, Gallows Corner included.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Tell us what needs doing and where, with pictures by email if possible. If we need more, we’ll ask.

How we quote for floor joint sealing

Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:

  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • The product the joint needs
  • When we can work, for business premises

Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

Asking for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

What we do, step by step

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It normally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. In Gallows Corner, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.

  1. First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
  2. We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
  3. The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
  4. The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
  5. Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Clear the area around the work
