Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?

Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
Where the skirting will be painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Silicone won’t take paint, so it’s kept for wet areas and unpainted joints.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.

Floor joint sealing in Winchmore Hill: local notes
Across Buckinghamshire, 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Coleshill Church of England Infant School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. Letting a property close to Beaconsfield station? Then a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Do not paint over silicone
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Light foot traffic is normally fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. Resealing early keeps it out.
What happens on the day
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere as small as Winchmore Hill, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- 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.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Related advice
Should I try it myself first?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
What we are called out for in Winchmore Hill
Grout is rigid, so a tiled floor with nowhere to move cracks along a grout line. Cracks often run straight along a line of joints, showing where a movement joint was needed.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
Community buildings like Church of All Saints are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Different surfaces, different methods
Thresholds
Where a tiled floor meets timber or carpet, the joint takes movement from both sides. We bridge them with a flexible bead.
Tiled floors
Perimeter joints in tiled floors should be sealant, not grout. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
When it is not the sealant
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Structural movement or subsidence
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before you book.
