Floor joint sealing in Matchams
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side in a colour to suit. We are often asked to deal with chipped and open joints in warehouse floors and threshold joints that have opened or worn, across commercial floors, thresholds and skirting boards.
In a village or hamlet like Matchams, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Why deal with it now?
Left open, concrete joints break down under traffic. A sealed joint supports the edges and keeps the damage down. In a small place like Matchams, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start.
Why book with us
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Fully insured
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

What affects the quote in Matchams
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Access and height
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- The type of property
For a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
Surface by surface
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. We rake out any grout there and reseal.
Thresholds
A threshold is where floors and frames meet. We seal them with a flexible sealant that suits both sides.

Questions from Matchams
Is Matchams within the area you cover?
Yes, Matchams is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is there a guarantee on floor joint sealing in Matchams?
All our work, in Matchams and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes. Old filler is cleaned out and the joint resealed with a floor-joint product. Let us know about the traffic when you ask for a quote.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Caulk is fine for dry joints that do not move, but it splits where the joint moves or gets wet. For most floor joints, we use a flexible sealant.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
When can I walk on the floor?
That varies with the sealant and the room. Before we leave, we tell you when it can be walked on, mopped and driven over.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
When to call us in Matchams
Concrete floor joints break down when traffic runs over open or failed joints. Pallet trucks and trolleys knock the edges away and the joint gets wider.
Look out for any of the following:
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
Whether the job is in Matchams itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
Questions to ask before you book
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What product goes in the joint
- The length of the guarantee
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
How it works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. For a village or hamlet like Matchams, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
