Floor & skirting joints in Addiscombe, Greater London
Our applicators work in Addiscombe on sealing skirting-to-floor joints, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and a 12-month guarantee.
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
Different surfaces, different methods
Skirting boards
On painted skirting, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is generally better.
Thresholds
Thresholds between rooms meet two floors and often a door frame. A flexible sealant suits both floor finishes.
How we handle floor joint sealing in Addiscombe
We seal floor joints in homes, offices and commercial buildings across Addiscombe. We start by checking the floor type and the joint, since that decides which sealant suits. Typical jobs include dirt and water collecting in open floor joints and grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant, across wet room & bathroom floors, skirting boards and thresholds.
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments. In a new development, snags are often reported through the developer or the managing agent, and shower seals that fail early, skirting joints that open up and gaps at thresholds are all common snags.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Why it’s worth doing now in Addiscombe
Filling a skirting gap with caulk looks fine at first, but the movement soon cracks it. A flexible sealant stretches instead. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.

Related advice
Should I try it myself first?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Quotes for floor joint sealing in Addiscombe
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- When we can work, for business premises
- The product the joint needs
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

- Whether it has been sealed before
- Whether it’s a home or a business
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that is easy.
Floor joint sealing around Addiscombe
