Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Apse Heath
Floors move, and the joint where they meet a wall, skirting, threshold or another floor has to move with them. Skirting-to-floor gaps, tiled floor joints and concrete joints are all sealed using a product that suits the floor. Common call-outs are for perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout and failed joint filler in concrete floors, on skirting boards, concrete floor joints and commercial floors.
For a small place like Apse Heath, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Floor joint sealing around Apse Heath
Across the Isle of Wight, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Managing a site like Sandown Bay Academy? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

What’s near Apse Heath

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Do not paint over silicone
Keep heavy furniture from dragging across the joints. Dragging can tear the bead especially in the first few days.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen over time.
What happens if it’s left?
Waiting until the next redecoration can mean a winter of draughts and dirt in the gaps. Sealing them now is a short job. Around Apse Heath, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor.

How long does the job take?

Do the sealants smell?

Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Do you use a paintable sealant?
For painted skirting, we use a flexible product that can be painted. Silicone won’t take paint, so it’s kept for wet areas and unpainted joints.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it, colour-matched where it shows.
