For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- We clean and dry the edges of the joint.

Advice
Floor joint sealing in Nettlebed
Floor joint sealing is mostly about choosing the right product and preparing the joint. Old caulk, grout or failed sealant comes out first, then clean, back and seal the joint. We work on skirting boards, wet room & bathroom floors and commercial floors, and people most often call us about worn sealant at door thresholds and open joints that fill with dirt.
Around Nettlebed, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

Common problems we fix in Nettlebed
A floor laid tight to the walls has no room to move. As it expands, the edges lift or crack.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Nettlebed Community School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Joints and finishes in Nettlebed 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. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Community buildings like Church of St Bartholomew are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

What the job involves on each surface
Thresholds
Threshold joints get a lot of feet, so the sealant has to be tough as well as flexible and neatly finished.
Skirting boards
On painted skirting, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is normally better.

Should I try it myself first?
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.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
If you manage several properties in or around Nettlebed, several properties can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
What happens if it’s left?
Left open, concrete joints break down under traffic. A sealed joint supports the edges and keeps the damage down. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Nettlebed, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
