About our floor joint sealing in Weald
Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. We seal them with a flexible, water-resistant sealant. We work on commercial floors, skirting boards and wet room & bathroom floors, and common reasons people get in touch are concrete floor joints that have broken down and worn sealant at door thresholds.
Older homes in small places like Weald often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Weald as everywhere else we work.

What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours, depending on the length of joint, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In a small place like Weald, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

What affects the quote in Weald
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The number and length of the joints
- Access and height
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any working-time requirements on site
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The rough size of the job
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Common problems we fix in Weald
Concrete floor joints break down when traffic runs over open or failed joints. Hard wheels damage the joint edges until the joint widens.
People normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
Managing a site like Bampton CofE Primary School? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
Questions to ask before booking
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What happens if the job turns out different
- What guarantee comes with the work
- How long to leave it before use
Different surfaces, different methods
Skirting boards
On painted skirting, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Where water is involved, silicone is the better choice.
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.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Leave it or put it right?
Not every floor joint takes the same sealant: flexible sealant for skirting and tiles, silicone in wet areas, and floor-joint products for concrete. Getting that choice wrong is a common reason joints fail. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Weald, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Why Weald customers choose us
- Full insurance on every job
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- We leave the area clean and tidy

New homes and floors in Weald
Across Oxfordshire, 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.
Community buildings like Church of St Mary are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Weald: your questions answered
Is Weald in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Weald is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
What guarantee comes with floor joint sealing in Weald?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
When can I walk on the floor?
We give you a cure time for each joint. Light use comes first, cleaning and heavy traffic later in most cases.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Movement from drying timber and settling floors opens the gap. Caulk tends to crack; a flexible sealant doesn’t.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we are fully insured too.
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
Don’t paint over silicone. If the joint will be painted, tell us beforehand so we use a paintable sealant.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen and are harder to clean out.
