How we handle floor joint sealing in Stratfield Saye
Floors move, and the joint where they meet a wall, skirting, threshold or another floor has to move with them. We seal skirting gaps, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. We’re often asked to deal with skirting caulk that keeps splitting and gaps between floors and kitchen plinths, across concrete floor joints, commercial floors and thresholds.
Somewhere as small as Stratfield Saye, 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.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Stratfield Saye and everywhere else we cover.

What affects the quote in Stratfield Saye
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The size of the job
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Any mould that needs treating
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Helping us quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Where the property is
- Photos by email, if that is easy

Stratfield Saye questions
Will you come out to Stratfield Saye?
Yes, we do. 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.
I let a flat near Mortimer station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured for every job we do.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk is fine for dry joints that do not move, but it splits where the joint moves or gets wet. For most floor joints, we use a flexible sealant.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Normally it’s movement: heating drying the timber, or a filler that’s too rigid. A flexible sealant stays closed as the floor moves.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Stratfield Saye
Caulk is the usual filler for skirting. It cracks where there’s movement or water.
The most common problems we see are:
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
For buildings such as Church of St. Mary the Virgin, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
What to look for in a quote

- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Is VAT in the price?

Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint, depending on the amount of work. Somewhere as small as Stratfield Saye, access is often the only tricky part. 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.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.

Skirting boards
If the skirting is painted, a paintable flexible sealant works well. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is usually better.
Thresholds
A threshold is where floors and frames meet. A flexible sealant suits both floor finishes.
