Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Poulner
Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is generally the better choice because it handles water. We work on tiled floors, commercial floors and wet room & bathroom floors, and the jobs we see most are grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant and open joints that fill with dirt.
For a new home in or near Poulner, it’s worth checking the sealant early. Common snags include open skirting joints, lifting shower seals and gaps around frames.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

How do I get a quote for floor joint sealing in Poulner?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking like caulk.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location. If we need more, we’ll ask.

It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, always. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, wherever you are.
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Do not paint over silicone
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Cone off the area if needed.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. Resealing early keeps it out.
What we’re called out for in Poulner
An open floor joint fills with dirt and water. In wet areas, water runs into the gap at every clean and behind skirting and plinths.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
If you look after a building such as Poulner Infant School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

- Large cracks that need a surveyor
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler

Surface by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floors meet baths, trays, panels and skirting. We seal them with anti-fungal sanitary silicone to keep water out of the edges.
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
