Is Argos Hill within the area you cover?
Yes. Argos Hill is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.

Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Argos Hill
Thresholds are where two floors, or a floor and a door, meet. We use a flexible product that suits both floors so the joint stays neat. We’re often asked to deal with tiled floors with no room to move and open joints around bathroom floor edges, on skirting boards, wet room & bathroom floors and tiled floors.
In a village or hamlet like Argos Hill, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
Every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in East Sussex.

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
Check the joints after the first winter. If anything has opened, it’s easy to reseal early on.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. Adding a movement joint early can stop cracks spreading to the tiles.
For landlords and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Argos Hill and across East Sussex. Several sites can be quoted together, and we are fully insured for the work.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
What happens on the day
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. In a small place like Argos Hill, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and smooth it.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

- Tiled floors
- Commercial floors
- Skirting boards
- Concrete floor joints
- Thresholds
- Wet room & bathroom floors
Should I try it myself first?
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, then guaranteed for a year.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Common problems we fix in Argos Hill
Decorators’ caulk is often used along skirting because it’s cheap and paintable. It cracks where there’s movement or water.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Tiled floors with no room to move
For buildings such as The Parish Church of St Denys, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Surface by surface
Thresholds
Threshold joints get a lot of feet, so the sealant has to be tough as well as flexible.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Wet room floors rely on sound joints at the walls. It’s resealed with a sanitary silicone.
New homes and floors in Argos Hill
Floors around East Sussex run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Rotherfield Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. If you let a flat or house near Crowborough station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.
