Floor joint sealing in Moulsecoomb, done properly

Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is normally the better choice, which isn’t made to be painted. We work on skirting boards, thresholds and concrete floor joints, and the jobs we see most are cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint and floor edges that trap water and grime.

Homes around Moulsecoomb range from older cottages to newer houses, and their floors range just as widely, from timber that moves with the seasons to tiles laid on concrete. Skirting and threshold joints need a sealant that suits the floor.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Quotes for floor joint sealing in Moulsecoomb

Your quote is based on your job. We look at:

  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • The number and length of the joints
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

Helping us quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Whether it has been sealed before

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that’s easy.

Can I do it myself?

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Moulsecoomb questions

I let a flat near Moulsecoomb station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Do you cover Moulsecoomb for floor joint sealing?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Moulsecoomb is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.

Is it messy?

We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints.

What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?

Floors shrink and settle, especially in the first year or two and through the heating season opens the gap. Caulk tends to crack; a flexible sealant doesn’t.

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 use decorators’ caulk instead?

Only on dry joints that don’t move. Caulk cracks as the floor moves and the gap reopens. A flexible sealant is the better choice.

How long will you be here?

Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint, including preparation and clearing up. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.

What do you put in the joint?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.

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 in most rooms. In a smaller place like Moulsecoomb, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Schools such as Moulsecoomb Primary School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St. Andrew's, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Different surfaces, different methods

Skirting boards

Gaps between skirting and floor open as timber and floors move. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking painted or coloured to match.

Thresholds

Thresholds take daily traffic, so the sealant has to be tough as well as flexible and neatly finished.

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:

  • Movement too big for a sealant joint
  • Floors that are uneven or need levelling
  • Tiles that have lifted or broken

If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we seal

  • Tiled floors
  • Concrete floor joints
  • Wet room & bathroom floors
  • Skirting boards
  • Thresholds
  • Commercial floors

  • Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint and we leave things clean and tidy. Parking around Moulsecoomb is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
  2. Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
  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. Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.

Before we arrive

  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
