About our floor joint sealing in Headley
Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is normally the better choice. If you’re dealing with gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens, we can help.
Older homes in small places like Headley 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, so you’re covered after we have gone.

What affects the quote in Headley
We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How many areas need sealing
- When we can work, for business premises
- Any mould that needs treating
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.
Helping us quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Where the property is
- The rough size of the job
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Do you need floor joint sealing in Headley?
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so, and rigid fillers crack.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
Schools such as St Andrew's Catholic School are buildings too, and floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
Have a look at the joints once the heating season is over. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. A sound seal stops that happening.
Why act early in Headley
An open concrete floor joint gets wider every time something heavy crosses it. A sealed joint supports the edges and keeps the damage down. In a small place like Headley, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.

Common questions in Headley
Will you come out to Headley?
Yes, Headley is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is Headley in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Headley is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
Where the skirting will be painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Silicone is not made to be painted, so it’s kept for wet areas and unpainted joints.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
We’ll tell you before we leave. It depends on the sealant, and walking on it normally comes before mopping or wheeled traffic.
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.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes. A crack along a grout line often means the floor needs room to move. We replace that grout with a flexible joint.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. We cut out any old sealant or caulk and reseal with flexible silicone in a colour to suit.

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. The work generally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere like Headley needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
