Your questions about floor joint sealing in Harlesden
Is parking a problem for a job in Harlesden?
Parking in Harlesden, 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.
Is Harlesden in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Harlesden is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes. Old filler is cleaned out and the joint resealed with a floor-joint product. Tell us what runs over the floor and we’ll quote.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
We’ll tell you before we leave. It depends on the sealant, and light foot traffic is usually fine before wet cleaning or wheels.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Floor joint sealing in Harlesden, done properly
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. We work on skirting boards, commercial floors and tiled floors, and people most often call us about gaps at thresholds between rooms and rigid edge joints in tiled floors.
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments. In a new development, snags are often reported through the developer or the managing agent, and failed shower seals, open skirting joints and gaps at thresholds are typical.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

Signs you need floor joint sealing in Harlesden
Water and dirt collect in open floor joints. In kitchens and bathrooms, mop water gets into the gap and can reach the subfloor.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Open joints that fill with dirt
Schools such as John Keble CofE Primary School are buildings too, and floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.
What to look for in a quote

Leave it or put it right?
Water that gets past a floor joint can damage the floor beneath. Sealing them now keeps the problem at the surface. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Putting it right early is much less trouble.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

For landlords and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Cone off the area if needed while it cures.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen over time.
Should I try it myself first?
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.
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.
How it works
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint and we leave things clean and tidy. For a job in Harlesden, parking and access are the things to plan: let us know about parking, the floor we will be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention any tricky access

What the job involves on each surface
Tiled floors
A crack running along a grout line is often a sign of a missing movement joint. That line is converted to a flexible joint if it’s in the right place.
Skirting boards
On painted skirting, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is normally better.
