Floor joint sealing in Margaret Roding
Good floor joints come down to the right product and clean, prepared edges. Old caulk, grout or failed sealant comes out first, the joint is cleaned and backed where needed, then the new sealant goes in. If you have tiled floors with no room to move and threshold joints that have opened or worn, we can help, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Margaret Roding, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Different surfaces, different methods
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.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Mop water gets into any open joint at the edge of a bathroom floor. A neat silicone joint keeps it out.

Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What floor joint sealing looks like in Margaret Roding
Floors around Essex run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
