Floor joint sealing in North Heath

About our floor joint sealing in North Heath

A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side. Typical jobs include perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout and cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens, on thresholds, wet room & bathroom floors and skirting boards.

For a small place like North Heath, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

When something else is needed

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:

  • Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
  • Cracked or broken concrete slabs
  • A tiled floor that needs relaying

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

Surfaces we seal

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

Common problems we fix in North Heath

Caulk is the usual filler for skirting. It cracks where there’s movement or water so the gap reappears.

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

  • Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
  • Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
  • Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
  • Open joints that fill with dirt

In and around North Heath, as anywhere, good floor joint sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • Is VAT in the price?
  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
  • How long the guarantee is

Choosing a sealant specialist

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:

  • Don’t paint over silicone
  • Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
  • Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
  • Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up

Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Keeping the edges drier helps the sealant last longer.

Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Sealing them early protects the edges and the floor safer.

What happens on the day

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. For a village or hamlet like North Heath, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
  2. We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
  3. We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
  4. A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied.
  5. Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Tell us about any water getting in

What happens if it’s left?

An open concrete floor joint gets wider every time something heavy crosses it. Resealing it early protects the edges and keeps the damage down. Older cottages and farmhouses around North Heath can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

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 will know the price before we begin.

Can I do it myself?

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, then guaranteed for a year.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in North Heath

Do you work for landlords with property near Pulborough station?

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Is North Heath in your area for floor joint sealing?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and North Heath is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.

What should I tell you?

A short description and the location. If we need more, we will ask.

What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?

Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.

Do you use a paintable sealant?

On joints you want to paint, yes. Silicone in bathrooms and kitchens cannot be painted so mention it when you get a quote.

Do I have to be there?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you match the sealant colour?

Normally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.

Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?

Yes. We cut out any old sealant or caulk and reseal with flexible silicone.
