About our floor joint sealing in Ramsden Heath

Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. A flexible silicone seal keeps it out. If you have perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout and concrete floor joints that have broken down, we can put it right, on wet room & bathroom floors, thresholds and skirting boards alike.

In a village or hamlet like Ramsden Heath, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.

All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

Aftercare tips

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
  • Keep dirt out of the joints
  • Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
  • Don’t fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet

Do not paint over silicone. If the joint will be painted, tell us beforehand so we use a paintable sealant.

Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner.

What affects the cost of floor joint sealing

We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:

  • The size of the job
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The product the joint needs

Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Whether it’s a home or a business

Common problems we fix in Ramsden Heath

Wheels crossing an unfilled concrete joint chip its edges. Hard wheels damage the joint edges until the joint widens.

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

  • Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
  • Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
  • Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
  • Worn sealant at door thresholds

Rented homes near Billericay station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • What insurance they hold
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not
  • What guarantee comes with the work

How to choose a mastic man

Different surfaces, different methods

Commercial floors

Washroom and kitchen floors in commercial buildings need sound edge joints. They’re resealed with a flexible, water-resistant sealant.

Skirting boards

Gaps between skirting and floor open as timber and floors move. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking in a colour to suit.

Leave it or put it right?

An open concrete floor joint gets wider every time something heavy crosses it. Resealing it early protects the edges before they need a bigger repair. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Ramsden Heath, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

What you get with us

  • A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
  • Arbo and Everbuild products
  • ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • Rated 4.9 stars on Google

New homes and floors in Ramsden Heath

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. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
