Floor joint sealing in West Hanney
Gaps along the bottom of skirting are common in new and older homes alike. Decorators’ caulk normally cracks where there’s movement, so we use a flexible sealant that moves with the floor. We work on thresholds, concrete floor joints and skirting boards, and the jobs we see most are worn sealant at door thresholds and grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant.
In a village or hamlet like West Hanney, 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.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
How we quote for floor joint sealing
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The size of the job
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- When we can work, for business premises
Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Surface by surface
Commercial floors
Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. We talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
Concrete floor joints
Sawn joints in concrete floors control where it cracks. They’re resealed with a product chosen for what runs over them.
Why it’s worth doing now in West Hanney
Dirt builds up in open joints, and they look untidy. A neat sealed joint is easier to clean and look tidier. In a small place like West Hanney, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Light foot traffic is usually fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. Adding a movement joint early can stop cracks spreading to the tiles.

Common questions in West Hanney
Is West Hanney in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and West Hanney is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Do you cover smaller places like West Hanney?
Yes, West Hanney is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.
What do you put in the joint?
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.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Floors shrink and settle, especially in the first year or two and through the heating season pulls the skirting and floor apart. Caulk tends to crack; a flexible sealant does not.
How long will you be here?
That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.
New homes and floors in West Hanney
Across Oxfordshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For buildings such as Church of St James, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. If you look after a building such as St James Church of England Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.
