How we handle floor joint sealing in Avisford
Gaps along the bottom of skirting are common in new and older homes alike. Caulk tends to crack there, so we use a flexible sealant that moves with the floor. We work on wet room & bathroom floors, commercial floors and skirting boards, and the jobs we see most are grout cracking in a straight line across a floor and skirting caulk that keeps splitting.
Older homes in small places like Avisford often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Avisford as everywhere else we work.

Floor joint sealing around Avisford
Floors around West 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’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Mary, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Rented homes near Barnham station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. Managing a site like Walberton and Binsted CofE Primary School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

What affects the cost of floor joint sealing
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number and length of the joints
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Whether it’s a home or a business
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Cone off the area if needed.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.

Do you cover Avisford for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Avisford is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking like caulk.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will tell you what we are using.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Do you work on commercial floors?

How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes from start to finish. In a small place like Avisford, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

How the job changes by surface
Thresholds
A threshold is where floors and frames meet. A flexible sealant suits both floor finishes.
Tiled floors
Tiled floors need movement joints at edges and across large areas. Where needed, a line of grout is replaced with flexible sealant in a matching colour.
What happens if it’s left?
Not every floor joint takes the same sealant: skirting and tiled floors need flexibility, wet areas need water resistance and concrete needs a product suited to wheels. Getting that choice wrong is a common reason joints fail. Older cottages and farmhouses around Avisford can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
Why us?
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
