About our floor joint sealing in Little Totham
Tiled floors can crack along the grout when there’s no room for movement. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant. Typical jobs include cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint and gaps opening between the floor and skirting, across wet room & bathroom floors, thresholds and concrete floor joints.

- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The rough size of the job

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Do not paint over silicone
Keep heavy furniture from dragging across the joints. Dragging can tear the bead.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further over time.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Large cracks that need a surveyor
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

- Tiled floors
What the job involves on each surface
Concrete floor joints
We clean concrete joints out thoroughly before sealing. We fit backing where needed.
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.
Little Totham questions
Can you do floor joint sealing in Little Totham?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Little Totham is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is Little Totham within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. We remove every bit of old sealant first.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Do you use a paintable sealant?
On joints you want to paint, yes. Silicone does not take paint, so tell us your plans.
What information do you need?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus photos if you have them. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Do you seal warehouse floor joints?
Yes. Concrete floor joints in warehouses and units are part of our work. We will talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Normally it’s movement: heating drying the timber, or a filler that is too rigid. A flexible bead keeps up with the movement.
What we are called out for in Little Totham
Decorators’ caulk is often used along skirting because it’s cheap and paintable. In a joint that moves or gets wet, it splits.
People normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
Rented homes near Witham station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether VAT is included
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
Joints and finishes in Little Totham homes
Across Essex, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of All Saints, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
