Floor joint sealing in Newney Green, done properly
Tiled floors can crack along the grout when there’s no room for movement. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant. Typical jobs include concrete floor joints that have broken down and failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels, across skirting boards, thresholds and commercial floors.
In a village or hamlet like Newney Green, 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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Floor joint sealing in Newney Green: local notes
Across Essex, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Rented homes near Chelmsford station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. Schools such as Hylands School are buildings too, and floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. For buildings such as Church of St Michael and All Angels, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Different surfaces, different methods
Tiled floors
When grout cracks along a straight line, the floor is telling you it needs to move. We rake out that line and seal it if it’s in the right place.
Commercial floors
Washroom and kitchen floors in commercial buildings need sound edge joints. We reseal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
Common questions in Newney Green
I let a flat near Chelmsford station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Newney Green within the area you cover?
Yes. Newney Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
Typically it takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
That varies with the sealant and the room. Before we leave, we tell you when it can be walked on, mopped and driven over so you can plan.
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.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Why act early in Newney Green
An open concrete floor joint gets wider every time something heavy crosses it. Resealing it early protects the edges. Around Newney Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
