Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
About our floor joint sealing in Watermead
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is usually the better choice. If you have chipped and open joints in warehouse floors and gaps between floors and kitchen plinths, we can help, whatever the surface.
In smaller places like Watermead, new homes tend to come as small developments or single plots. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly from day one.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it while it cures.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Watermead
Concrete floor joints break down when traffic runs over open or failed joints. Pallet trucks and trolleys knock the edges away until the joint widens.
Look out for any of the following:
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
For buildings such as Church of St James, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
Before booking anyone
- How hidden problems are handled
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
Watermead: your questions answered
Is Watermead in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Watermead is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Aylesbury station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.
Can you reseal concrete floor joints in an industrial unit?
Yes, including warehouses, units, shops and offices. We can plan around your opening times with out-of-hours work where needed.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
If you tell us beforehand, yes. Joints that will be painted get a paintable product, and silicone elsewhere.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll explain which colours are available and agree one before work begins.
Why it’s worth doing now in Watermead
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. It’s a quick job to seal them now in most rooms. Homes in smaller places like Watermead can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Why book with us
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself normally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint, depending on the size of the job. For a job in Watermead, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.
Preparing for the visit

Different surfaces, different methods
Skirting boards
If the skirting is painted, a paintable flexible sealant works well. Where water is involved, silicone is the better choice.
Commercial floors
Shops, offices, warehouses and units all have floor joints that need sealing. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Joints and finishes in Watermead homes
Across Buckinghamshire, 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.
For landlords with property near Aylesbury station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. Schools such as St Louis Catholic Primary School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.
