Keeping the joints in good condition

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
  • Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
  • Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
  • Ask before painting over a sealed joint

Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Feet are usually fine before mopping or wheeled traffic.

Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. A sound seal stops that happening.

Floor joint sealing in Ingrams Green, done properly

The gap under a skirting board often opens as floors and walls move with the seasons. Decorators’ caulk normally cracks where there’s movement, so we close it with a flexible sealant instead. If you have gaps opening between the floor and skirting and concrete floor joints that have broken down, we can put it right.

Around Ingrams Green, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

When to call us in Ingrams Green

A floor laid tight to the walls has no room to move. As it expands, the edges lift or crack, and the sealant or grout breaks.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Open joints that fill with dirt
  • Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
  • Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
  • Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards

In and around Ingrams Green, as anywhere, good floor joint sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Questions to ask before you book

  • How much experience the applicator has
  • What the cure time is
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • Whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ingrams Green

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

What affects the quote in Ingrams Green

For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

  • The type of sealant required
  • The number and length of the joints
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Any working-time requirements on site

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

Asking for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Whether it has been sealed before

We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Surface by surface

Skirting boards

If the skirting is painted, a paintable flexible sealant works well. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is usually better.

Commercial floors

Washroom and kitchen floors in commercial buildings need sound edge joints. We reseal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.

Ingrams Green questions

Do you cover Ingrams Green for floor joint sealing?

Yes, Ingrams Green is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.

Do you cover smaller places like Ingrams Green?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.

How do I get a quote for floor joint sealing in Ingrams Green?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.

How long does the job take?

A typical job takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

DIY versus a professional finish

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

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

The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on. The job normally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In a small place like Ingrams Green, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  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. We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
  5. The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
