## Overview

StopGap Floorboard Draught Excluder is a simple, cost-effective V-shaped plastic strip designed to seal gaps up to 5mm between wooden floorboards. Easy to install with just a credit card, it adapts to uneven gaps and blends discreetly with brown floors, providing an efficient draught-proofing solution that enhances home comfort and energy efficiency.

## Description

StopGap is a simple and cost-effective way of sealing the gaps between wooden floorboards. Simply unroll the "V" shaped plastic and poke it into the gaps with a credit card. With narrow gaps it will just hold itself in place, sealing the draughts and making the gaps look neater into the bargain. Gaps greater than about 5mm will need a blob of silicone on the joists to help to hold it in place. Please note - an average 3.5 metre square room requires 2-3 rolls of StopGap.

Review: Perfect floorboard gap filler - This is an amazing product. Simple and does the job. I've got old pine boards with some huge gaps. Some gaps are smaller , 3mm but I bought the standard and it's worked perfectly for different size gaps. You simply push the plastic into the gap and it folds into a v shape, holding itself against the boards. I bought brown so it basically disappears like a shadow but it's clean and there's no draught. Perfect.
Review: Simple but so effective - This stuff is great. So simple but does the job really well. Note that if the gaps between your floorboards are very uneven (e.g. if you've got years' worth of blobs of varnish down there) then you might need to get a knife out to straighten the gaps slightly, but the flexibility of this stuff means that the gaps don't need to be perfectly straight or of an even width - it will just squash or expand accordingly.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can mice chew through stopgap?**
A: Probably. They chew anything

**Q: How do i know whether white or brown is best? What different effects do they produce? Do yoh have comparison photos?**
A: Hi there, It may sound surprising but you can use either colour in floor gaps because it's virtually impossible to see the StopGap when it is in place as it is in shadow. If some of the gaps are towards StopGap's upper width limit of 8mm then choose brown. The neutral colour - milky white - is best for between skirting boards and floor and for windows. Photo attachments are not allowed I'm afraid.

**Q: White floorboards.Could this be used as a base to lay white caulk or mastic over, to colour match and stop the excluder popping up?**
A: StopGap is ideal for use before conventional filler and can pay for itself by avoiding wastage of expensive filler through the gap before it sets. Suitable for use before any colour filler.

**Q: Hi, the pic of the product shows that this particular item is brown - but the description in the table above says it is white.  Could you confirm?**
A: StopGap comes in 'brown' or 'neutral' (whitish) to order neutral choose: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Stop-Gap-Floorboard-Draught-Excluder-Neutral/dp/B00DGY70MI/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1460566430&sr=8-2&keywords=stopgapfor brown choose: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Green-Stamp-Stop-Gap-Floorboard-Excluder/dp/B004GH7ALK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1460566430&sr=8-1&keywords=stopgap

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good, but expensive! A little maintenance required post installation but overall good.
*by M***I on 30 May 2018*

This is essentially a strip of plastic that has a fold down its middle so you can insert into the gaps of your floorboard. It does what it says - stops the draughts and dust from billowing up into the room. What I liked: very easy to install; you feel and notice the effects immediately. What I didn't like - It's horrendously expensive for what it is, and I'm sure you could find a similar strip of plastic make a v fold and not pay the extortionate price. It took three rolls for our sitting room which measures 20 sq m = 75 quid! I wouldn't mind paying if it weren't literally just a strip of plastic. Does it work well? That really depends on your floor. If your floor has a lot of movement the Stopgap will pop up and you will need to (depending on your tolerance for plastic sticking up from your floor) periodically push it back down. Make sure you've nailed down your floor - any loose boards will force it up as people walk on the boards. Mine are very well tamped down, but I've noticed it does still pop back up as all floorboards have some movement to them. Don't push too far down though, or it will go straight through to the crawl space. Does it look good? Initially, I hated the idea of gaps between the floorboards and was tempted to put in pine slivers as with another room in my house. But the floor guy we used suggested it. It does look pretty good - but this again comes down to prepping your floor! You need to make sure that the edges of the gaps are smooth. Previous owners had shoved a paper mache mix into the gaps and I'd cleaned most it off before floor guy came, though there were spots I missed. Initially when I put the stop gap in - it looked awful in the places I'd missed. So, I took a box cutter knife and cleaned the edges. MUCH BETTER. Clean edges means the Stop Gap looks invisible. Lumpy edges means you see it. How's it holding up? Like I said, you'll need to periodically push it down. A lot of stuff gets caught in them - as is it's job! But a bit hard to mop with water getting caught in it. All livable...I think it has a good name - Stop Gap - a rather simple, not perfect solution for the eternal problem of period floorboards!
