Floor joint sealing in Wix, done properly
Tiled floors can crack along the grout when there’s no room for movement. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant coloured to suit the grout. We work on skirting boards, commercial floors and tiled floors, and people most often call us about tiled floors with no room to move and caulk that has cracked where the floor moves.
Around Wix, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How the job changes by surface
Commercial floors
Commercial washrooms and kitchens have floor joints that get wet constantly. They’re resealed with a flexible, water-resistant sealant.
Skirting boards
If the skirting is painted, a paintable flexible sealant works well. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is normally better.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
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, then guaranteed for a year.
Why it’s worth doing now in Wix
Filling a skirting gap with caulk looks fine at first, so the gap reappears. A flexible sealant stretches instead, so the joint stays closed. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Wix, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why book with us
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- You choose the colour before work begins

Landlord and commercial work in Wix
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Wix and across Essex. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured for the work.
What affects the quote in Wix
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- When we can work, for business premises
- The product the joint needs
- How much there is to do
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will talk you through it.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- If someone has resealed it before
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The rough size of the job
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
It all starts with a short chat. 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, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
New homes and floors in Wix
Across Essex, 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 buildings such as Church of St Mary, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Rented homes near Wrabness station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wix and Wrabness Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
Check the joints after the first winter. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up before they spread.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further over time.
The process
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. For a village or hamlet like Wix, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- 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.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
