Joints and finishes in Mongewell homes
Across Oxfordshire, 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.
Letting a property close to Cholsey station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Mary's Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

How we handle floor joint sealing in Mongewell
The gap under a skirting board often opens as floors and walls move with the seasons. Decorators’ caulk usually cracks where there’s movement, so we use a flexible sealant that moves with the floor. Typical jobs include cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens and chipped and open joints in warehouse floors, on commercial floors, tiled floors and thresholds.
Older homes in small places like Mongewell often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

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 chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What the job involves on each surface
Commercial floors
Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Concrete floor joints
Concrete floors have sawn or formed joints to control cracking. We reseal them with a floor-joint product suited to the traffic.

Leave it or put it right?
The right product depends on the floor and the traffic: flexible sealant for skirting and tiles, silicone in wet areas, and floor-joint products for concrete. Getting that choice wrong is a common reason joints fail. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Mongewell, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
Why Mongewell clients choose us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- Colour agreed with you before work begins

Landlord and commercial work in Mongewell
Landlords and agents in Mongewell can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Mongewell and across Oxfordshire. Several sites can go on one quote, and we are fully insured for the work.
What we’re called out for in Mongewell
Decorators’ caulk is often used along skirting because it’s cheap and paintable. It cracks where there’s movement or water, which is why so many skirting joints look broken.
People generally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Crowmarsh Gifford Church of England School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- How the colour is chosen
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
