About our floor joint sealing in Linkhill
Thresholds are where two floors, or a floor and a door, meet. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side so the joint stays neat. We’re often asked to deal with gaps at thresholds between rooms and chipped and open joints in warehouse floors, on concrete floor joints, skirting boards and commercial floors.
Older homes in small places like Linkhill often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Leave it or put it right?
Floor joints left open collect dirt that’s hard to clean out, and they look untidy. A neat sealed joint is easier to clean and finishes the floor. Around Linkhill, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Use furniture pads near skirting
Silicone sealant is not made to take paint. If the joint will be painted, tell us beforehand so we use a paintable sealant.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further and are harder to clean out.

How it works
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. In a small place like Linkhill, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- A flexible sealant, or a floor-joint sealant for concrete, is applied in a colour to suit.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Linkhill
Water and dirt collect in open floor joints. In wet areas, water runs into the gap at every clean.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Mission Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Different surfaces, different methods
Skirting boards
Skirting-to-floor joints are a regular job for us. The old caulk is removed first so the new sealant bonds.
Concrete floor joints
We clean concrete joints out thoroughly before sealing first. We fit backing where needed.
FAQs for Linkhill

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is Linkhill in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Linkhill is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
Normally, yes. A crack along a grout line often means the floor needs room to move. We rake out that line and seal it with flexible sealant.
How much does floor joint sealing cost in Linkhill?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
