About our floor joint sealing in Little Thurrock

Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is usually the better choice, which isn’t made to be painted. If you have floor edges that trap water and grime and perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout, we can help, whatever the surface.

For a new home in or near Little Thurrock, it’s worth checking the sealant early. Common snags include open skirting joints, lifting shower seals and gaps around frames.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor
  • Large cracks that need a surveyor
  • Floors that are uneven or need levelling

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Wet room & bathroom floors
  • Concrete floor joints
  • Commercial floors
  • Tiled floors
  • Skirting boards
  • Thresholds

What affects the cost of floor joint sealing

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

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Access and height
  • How many areas need sealing

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Asking for a quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • The rough size of the job
  • Where the property is
  • If someone has resealed it before

There’s no standard price list. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

What happens if it’s left?

Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. Around Little Thurrock, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.

What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Why book with us

  • ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • We leave the area clean and tidy
  • White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
  • Over 20 years’ experience

Different surfaces, different methods

Tiled floors

When grout cracks along a straight line, the floor is telling you it needs to move. We rake out that line and seal it.

Concrete floor joints

Old filler, dust and debris are cleaned out of the joint first. We fit backing where needed.

What we do, step by step

Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. For a job in Little Thurrock, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
  2. We remove what’s in the joint now.
  3. The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
  4. The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
  5. The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on

What we are called out for in Little Thurrock

Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open and they change again in summer.

The problems people usually mention when they call include:

  • Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
  • Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
  • Failed joint filler in concrete floors
  • Rigid edge joints in tiled floors

Schools such as Deneholm Primary School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.
