Why act early in Ashford Common
Filling a skirting gap with caulk looks fine at first, but the movement soon cracks it. A flexible sealant stretches instead. Homes in smaller places like Ashford Common can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.

Floor joint sealing in Ashford Common
The gap under a skirting board often opens as floors and walls move with the seasons. Caulk tends to crack there, so we use a flexible sealant that moves with the floor. We work on skirting boards, concrete floor joints and thresholds, and people most often call us about tiled floors with no room to move and concrete floor joints that have broken down.
Homes around Ashford Common range from older cottages to newer houses, and their floors range just as widely, from timber that moves with the seasons to tiles laid on concrete. Skirting and threshold joints need a sealant that suits the floor.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Surface by surface
Skirting boards
On painted skirting, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is normally better.
Concrete floor joints
Sawn joints in concrete floors control where it cracks. We reseal them with a floor-joint product suited to the traffic.
What happens on the day
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes for a typical job. A visit to Ashford Common is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Preparing for the visit

Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Joints and finishes in Ashford Common homes
Floors around Surrey run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Managing a site like Meadhurst Primary School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Saviour, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Letting a property close to Upper Halliford station? Then open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Cone off the area if needed.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further.
