Is parking a problem for a job in Turnpike Lane?

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Floor joint sealing in Turnpike Lane
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone. If you have floor edges that trap water and grime and rigid edge joints in tiled floors, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments. In a new development, snags are often reported through the developer or the managing agent, and failed shower seals, open skirting joints and gaps at thresholds are typical.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

New homes and floors in Turnpike Lane
Many of London’s new homes are flats in bigger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent. Across Greater London, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
As a London address, Turnpike Lane can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. If you let a flat or house near Hornsey station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Common problems we fix in Turnpike Lane
Concrete floor joints break down when traffic runs over open or failed joints. Hard wheels damage the joint edges and the joint gets wider.
Look out for these signs:
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
If you look after a building such as North Harringay Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether you can choose the colour
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What product goes in the joint
How we quote for floor joint sealing
We don’t publish a price list. The quote depends on:
- The amount of work
- How many areas need sealing
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Any mould that needs treating
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Roughly how big the job is
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Whether it has been sealed before
To get a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You’ll have a clear quote before we start.
Landlord and commercial work in Turnpike Lane

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Light foot traffic is usually fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels, and we’ll tell you both.
A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner.
How the visit works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. In a London area like Turnpike Lane, the main things to plan are parking and access: let us know about parking, the floor we will be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Clear the area around the work

Different surfaces, different methods
Tiled floors
When grout cracks along a straight line, the floor is telling you it needs to move. We rake out that line and seal it.
Skirting boards
Skirting gaps are one of the most common floor joints we seal. We take out any cracked caulk before sealing so the bead sits on a clean surface.
