How we handle floor joint sealing in Meriden

In commercial and industrial units, concrete floor joints take a hammering from wheels and traffic. Each is resealed with a floor-joint product suited to what runs over it. We are often asked to deal with worn sealant at door thresholds and skirting that has pulled away from the floor, across skirting boards, commercial floors and wet room & bathroom floors.

If you’ve bought a new home in or near Meriden, the first year or two is a good time to check the sealant. Gaps at skirtings, shower seals pulling away and missing mastic around frames are common snags.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Do you need floor joint sealing in Meriden?

Grout is rigid, so a tiled floor with nowhere to move cracks along a grout line. Cracks often run straight along a line of joints, showing where a movement joint was needed.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Open joints that fill with dirt
  • Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
  • Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
  • Failed joint filler in concrete floors

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Grove Academy, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not
  • How long to leave it before use
  • Whether they’re fully insured

How to choose a mastic man

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
  • Don’t paint over silicone
  • Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
  • Look at floor joints each spring

Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Feet are normally fine before mopping or wheeled traffic so we’ll give you each time.

In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.

Leave it or put it right?

Waiting until the next redecoration can mean a winter of draughts and dirt in the gaps. Sealing them now is a short job. Homes in smaller places like Meriden can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

What the job involves on each surface

Commercial floors

Shops, offices, warehouses and units all have floor joints that need sealing. We talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.

Skirting boards

Skirting gaps are one of the most common floor joints we seal. The old caulk is removed first so the bead sits on a clean surface.

Meriden: your questions answered

Do you cover Meriden for floor joint sealing?

Yes, Meriden is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Do you cover smaller places like Meriden?

Yes, Meriden is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Should I try DIY first?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

What sealant do you use?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.

Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?

Often, yes. Where a floor needs one, we rake out grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant coloured to suit. If tiles are loose, that needs fixing first.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you seal warehouse floor joints?

Yes. Old filler is cleaned out and the joint resealed with a floor-joint product. Tell us what runs over the floor and we’ll quote.

Will I be able to paint over the new joint?

For painted skirting, we use a flexible product that can be painted. Silicone is not made to be painted, so we use it where the joint stays unpainted.

Can I do it myself?

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

The process

Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. In a smaller place like Meriden, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
  2. Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
  3. We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
  4. The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
  5. We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
