How we handle floor joint sealing in North Mymms
Good floor joints come down to the right product and clean, prepared edges. Old caulk, grout or failed sealant comes out first, the joint is cleaned and backed where needed, then the new sealant goes in. We’re often asked to deal with open joints around bathroom floor edges and grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant, on commercial floors, concrete floor joints and thresholds.
Work in a small place like North Mymms just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

How the visit works

- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.

Questions from North Mymms
Do you work for landlords with property near Brookmans Park station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Do you cover smaller places like North Mymms?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Movement from drying timber and settling floors. Caulk tends to crack; a flexible sealant does not.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes, at the edges and along suitable lines. The grout is raked out and replaced with a flexible sealant in a colour to suit.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
For landlords and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.
Leave it or put it right?
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. Older cottages and farmhouses around North Mymms can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
- Leaks from a failed tanking system
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Tiled floors
- Skirting boards
- Concrete floor joints
- Commercial floors
- Thresholds
Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, 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.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Use furniture pads near skirting
Don’t paint over silicone. If the joint will be painted, tell us beforehand so we use a paintable sealant.
A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and stops it getting worse.
Joints and finishes in North Mymms homes
Floors around Hertfordshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Rented homes near Brookmans Park station change hands often, and a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. For buildings such as Church of St Mary the Virgin, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. If you look after a building such as Brookmans Park Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
