New homes and floors in Woodham Ferrers
Floors around Essex run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not 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. Managing a site like William de Ferrers School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

- Bouncy or failing floorboards

What we seal
- Concrete floor joints
- Skirting boards
- Commercial floors
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Thresholds
- Tiled floors
Surface by surface
Skirting boards
Gaps between skirting and floor open as timber and floors move. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking.
Concrete floor joints
Sawn joints in concrete floors control where it cracks. We reseal them with a floor-joint product suited to the traffic.
DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
If you are 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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
What happens on the day
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes.

Advice
Woodham Ferrers: your questions answered
Is Woodham Ferrers within the area you cover?
Yes, Woodham Ferrers is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Can you match the sealant colour?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The product needed can limit the range.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
If you tell us beforehand, yes. Joints that will be painted get a paintable product.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
You’ll get the times before we go. It depends on the sealant, and light foot traffic is normally fine before wet cleaning or wheels.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Floors shrink and settle, especially in the first year or two and through the heating season. Rigid fillers split, so we use a flexible sealant.
