Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Cone off the area if needed while it cures.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact and the surface smoother.
About our floor joint sealing in Margaretting Tye
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We use a flexible product that suits both floors. If you’re dealing with tiled floors with no room to move and threshold joints that have opened or worn, we can help, on thresholds, commercial floors and concrete floor joints alike.
Somewhere as small as Margaretting Tye, 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.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
What floor joint sealing looks like in Margaretting Tye
Across Essex, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Managing a site like Anglo European School? Then entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. Letting a property close to Ingatestone station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Margaretting Tye
I let a flat near Ingatestone station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Margaretting Tye?
Yes, Margaretting Tye is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes. We reseal concrete floor joints in commercial and industrial units. The product is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
That varies with the sealant and the room. Before we leave, we tell you when it can be walked on, mopped and driven over.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
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.
How it works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Somewhere as small as Margaretting Tye, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

What the job involves on each surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Wet room floors rely on sound joints at the walls. It’s resealed with a sanitary silicone.
Thresholds
Threshold joints get a lot of feet, so the sealant has to be tough as well as flexible and neatly finished.
