How we handle floor joint sealing in Swaile's Green

Large tiled floors, and those over underfloor heating, often need movement joints. Where one is needed, we rake out the grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant. If you are dealing with concrete floor joints that have broken down and tiled floors with no room to move, we can help, on thresholds, wet room & bathroom floors and concrete floor joints alike.

In a village or hamlet like Swaile's Green, 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.

Our work is backed for twelve months.

When to call us in Swaile's Green

Grout is rigid, so a tiled floor with nowhere to move cracks along a grout line. You’ll see a crack running along the grout, showing where a movement joint was needed.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Concrete floor joints that have broken down
  • Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
  • Open joints around bathroom floor edges
  • Skirting caulk that keeps splitting

For buildings such as St Marks Staplecross, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long the guarantee is
  • Whether VAT is included
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • What product goes in the joint

Joints and finishes in Swaile's Green homes

Across East Sussex, 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 Robertsbridge station? Then a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. Managing a site like Staplecross Methodist Primary School? Then entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

What affects the cost of floor joint sealing

For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Whether the work is at height
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The type of sealant required

Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.

Asking for a quote

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • Whether it has been sealed before

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work and give you a clear price.

Can I do it myself?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

The process

At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors, depending on the amount of work. In a small place like Swaile's Green, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
  2. Old material is removed from the joint.
  3. We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
  4. A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied.
  5. We check the joints and explain the aftercare.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Swaile's Green: your questions answered

I let a flat near Robertsbridge station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

Will you come out to Swaile's Green?

Yes, we do. Our work covers 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 offer different sealant colours?

Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we will agree it with you first.

How long will you be here?

That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. We will give you a better idea when we quote.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes. Just list everything you need and we will quote it together.

Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?

Yes. These joints get wet every time the floor is cleaned, so we seal them with silicone suited to wet areas.

Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?

Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.

Can you reseal concrete floor joints in an industrial unit?

Yes. Old filler is cleaned out and the joint resealed with a floor-joint product. Let us know about the traffic when you ask for a quote.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Keeping the joints in good condition

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
  • Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
  • Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
  • Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges

In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it until it’s ready.

Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. A sound seal stops that happening.

Why act early in Swaile's Green

Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. In a small place like Swaile's Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
