Floor joint sealing in Westwick Row, done properly
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side. If you have concrete floor joints that have broken down and threshold joints that have opened or worn, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Around Westwick Row, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Do not paint over silicone
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
Lift furniture rather than sliding it over sealed joints. Dragging can tear the bead.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.
Floor joint sealing around Westwick Row
Across Hertfordshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal. Hemel Hempstead, which Westwick Row is part of, is one of England’s post-war new towns. Newer neighbourhoods have been added to Hemel Hempstead over the years, so brand-new homes and homes from the post-war decades sit within a short drive of each other. Older homes need their sealant and floor joints renewing, newer ones checking at snagging.
Letting a property close to Apsley station? Then a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Leverstock Green Church of England Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. For buildings such as Church of Holy Trinity, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Should I try it myself first?
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
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.

How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint.

Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.

What happens if it’s left?
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. Older cottages and farmhouses around Westwick Row can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
