Abinger Hammer Floor Joint Sealing
We cover Abinger Hammer for sealing skirting-to-floor joints, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Floor joint sealing in Abinger Hammer, done properly
Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. We seal them with a flexible, water-resistant sealant. We work on skirting boards, thresholds and concrete floor joints, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens and perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout.
In a village or hamlet like Abinger Hammer, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

FAQs for Abinger Hammer
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Gomshall station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Abinger Hammer?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.
Is it messy?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
Where the skirting will be painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Silicone isn’t made to be painted, so we use it where the joint stays unpainted.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Caulk works on still, dry joints, but it cracks where there’s movement or water. For most floor joints, we use a flexible sealant.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. We cut out any old sealant or caulk and reseal with flexible silicone.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Honest limits
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Large cracks that need a surveyor
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Thresholds
- Concrete floor joints
- Wet room & bathroom floors

How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Light foot traffic is usually fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels, and we will tell you both.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further.

How the job changes by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A neat silicone joint keeps it out.
Concrete floor joints
Old filler, dust and debris are cleaned out of the joint first. We fit backing where needed.
What we are called out for in Abinger Hammer
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons. Heating dries timber and opens gaps along the skirting and they change again in summer.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
Rented homes near Gomshall station change hands often, and a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.
