Surface by surface
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. We rake out any grout there and reseal.
Commercial floors
In commercial buildings, we can plan floor joint work around opening hours. We can arrange out-of-hours work where it’s needed.
About our floor joint sealing in Hill Green
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. If you have gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and gaps at thresholds between rooms, we can put it right.
Older homes in small places like Hill Green often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Common questions in Hill Green
Do you cover Hill Green for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Hill Green is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
I let a flat near Newport (Essex) station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
How do I get a quote for floor joint sealing in Hill Green?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
In many cases, yes. We replace the grout along a suitable line with flexible sealant in a matching colour. If tiles are loose, that needs fixing first.
What we do, step by step
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere as small as Hill Green, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Why act early in Hill Green
An open concrete floor joint gets wider every time something heavy crosses it. A sealed joint supports the edges. Around Hill Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Feet are generally fine before mopping or wheeled traffic, and we will tell you both.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Sealing them early protects the edges.
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured for the work.
Floor joint sealing around Hill Green
Floors around Essex 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.
Managing a site like Clavering Primary School? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Mary and St Clement, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Letting a property close to Newport (Essex) station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.
