Floor joint sealing in Stratfield Mortimer, done properly
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone because it handles water. Common call-outs are for tiled floors with no room to move and skirting that has pulled away from the floor, on thresholds, wet room & bathroom floors and skirting boards.
Somewhere as small as Stratfield Mortimer, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

When it is not the sealant
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Tiles that have lifted or broken
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.

Surface by surface
Skirting boards
Gaps between skirting and floor open as timber and floors move. We seal them with a flexible sealant rather than caulk painted or coloured to match.
Concrete floor joints
Old filler, dust and debris are cleaned out of the joint, vacuuming them clean. We fit backing where needed.
How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. For a village or hamlet like Stratfield Mortimer, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Why it’s worth doing now in Stratfield Mortimer
Floor joints left open collect dirt that is hard to clean out. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean. Around Stratfield Mortimer, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
What you get with us
- Fully insured
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

New homes and floors in Stratfield Mortimer
Across West Berkshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Letting a property close to Mortimer station? Then open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. Community buildings like Saint John The Evangelist are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Schools such as Mortimer St Mary's C.E. Junior School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Don’t fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Feet are usually fine before mopping or wheeled traffic so we will give you each time.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. A sound seal stops that happening.
