The process
There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint for a typical job. In a small place like Shirburn, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.

Advice
How we handle floor joint sealing in Shirburn
Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. A flexible silicone seal keeps it out so water and dirt can’t get in. If you have concrete floor joints that have broken down and failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels, we can put it right.
Work in a small place like Shirburn just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

How the job changes by surface
Concrete floor joints
Sawn joints in concrete floors control where it cracks. They’re resealed with a product chosen for what runs over them.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A neat silicone joint keeps it out.
Floor joint sealing around Shirburn
Across Oxfordshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Icknield Community College, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. Community buildings like All Saints Church are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it until it’s ready.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact.

Shirburn questions
Do you cover Shirburn for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Shirburn is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Shirburn?
Yes, Shirburn is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes. Old filler is cleaned out and the joint resealed with a floor-joint product. Let us know about the traffic and we’ll quote.
How much does floor joint sealing cost in Shirburn?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
How long will you be here?
Most jobs take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
What sealant work can’t fix

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What happens if it’s left?
The right product depends on the floor and the traffic: skirting and tiled floors need flexibility, wet areas need water resistance and concrete needs a product suited to wheels. Getting that choice wrong is a common reason joints fail. Around Shirburn, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.
