Joints and finishes in Headington Hill homes
Floors around Oxfordshire 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Cheney School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. Community buildings like All Saints' Church are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Rented homes near Oxford station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.
Headington Hill is about 1 mile north-east of Oxford, in Oxfordshire. We provide floor joint sealing to householders, landlords and businesses in Headington Hill, as part of our work across Oxfordshire. Headington Hill is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire where we work for floor joint sealing.

How we handle floor joint sealing in Headington Hill
Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is generally the better choice, which is not made to be painted. We work on concrete floor joints, thresholds and commercial floors, and common reasons people get in touch are skirting caulk that keeps splitting and threshold joints that have opened or worn.
Where new homes go up in smaller places like Headington Hill, it’s often a small development or a single plot. The sealant around baths, showers, frames and skirtings needs to be right from the start.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

FAQs for Headington Hill
Will you come out to Headington Hill?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Oxford station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. These joints get wet every time the floor is cleaned, so we seal them with silicone suited to wet areas.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you match the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before any work starts.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.
How long does the job take?
Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
What happens if it’s left?
Left open, concrete joints break down under traffic. A sealed joint supports the edges. Homes in smaller places like Headington Hill can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Different surfaces, different methods
Concrete floor joints
We clean concrete joints out thoroughly before sealing first. Backing goes in where the depth needs controlling.
Commercial floors
Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
- Large cracks that need a surveyor
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before booking.
What we seal
- Skirting boards
- Wet room & bathroom floors
