Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Badshot Lea
Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. We seal them with a flexible, water-resistant sealant and stops dirt collecting. If you are dealing with concrete floor joints that have broken down and tiled floors with no room to move, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Around Badshot Lea, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee.

Badshot Lea: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Badshot Lea?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Aldershot station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available and agree one before any work starts.
Why not just use caulk?
Caulk works on still, dry joints, but it cracks where there’s movement or water. We use a flexible sealant for most skirting and floor joints.
What else we do in Badshot Lea
How the visit works
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Somewhere as small as Badshot Lea, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Feet are generally fine before mopping or wheeled traffic so we will give you each time.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen.
Different surfaces, different methods
Thresholds
A threshold is where floors and frames meet. A flexible sealant suits both floor finishes.
Skirting boards
Skirting gaps are one of the most common floor joints we seal. The old caulk is removed first.

- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor

Joints and finishes in Badshot Lea homes
Across Surrey, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.

Community buildings like St George's Church are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
