How we handle floor joint sealing in Oving
Floors move, and the joint where they meet a wall, skirting, threshold or another floor has to move with them. Skirting-to-floor gaps, tiled floor joints and concrete joints are all sealed using a product that suits the floor. We work on wet room & bathroom floors, concrete floor joints and thresholds, and people most often call us about floor edges that trap water and grime and open joints around bathroom floor edges.
Somewhere as small as Oving, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Floor joint sealing around Oving
Across Buckinghamshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Whitchurch Combined School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. Community buildings like Church of All Saints are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Oving: your questions answered
Is Oving within the area you cover?
Yes. Oving is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you cover Oving for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Oving is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we’re fully insured too.
How much does floor joint sealing cost in Oving?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.
When can I walk on the floor?
We give you a cure time for each joint. Feet are generally fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels, depending on the product.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in.
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Cone off the area if needed while it cures.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. A sound seal stops that happening.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Common problems we fix in Oving
Water and dirt collect in open floor joints. In wet areas, water runs into the gap at every clean and can reach the subfloor.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
Rented homes near Aylesbury Vale Parkway station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.
