About our floor joint sealing in Bewbush
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side so the joint stays neat. We work on concrete floor joints, thresholds and tiled floors, and common reasons people get in touch are grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant and gaps between floors and kitchen plinths.
For a new home in or near Bewbush, it’s worth checking the sealant early. Common snags include open skirting joints, lifting shower seals and gaps around frames.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

New homes and floors in Bewbush
Across West Sussex, 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. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that. Crawley, which Bewbush is part of, is one of England’s post-war new towns. Newer neighbourhoods have been added to Crawley over the years. Older homes need their sealant and floor joints renewing, newer ones checking at snagging.
For landlords with property near Ifield station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. For buildings such as St Alban's, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Managing a site like The Bewbush Academy? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors for a typical job. In a smaller place like Bewbush, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- 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.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
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
- Tell us if parking is tricky

How the job changes by surface
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. We rake out any grout there and reseal.
Concrete floor joints
Open concrete joints chip at the edges when wheels cross them. A sealed joint protects the edges.
Questions from Bewbush
Do you work for landlords with property near Ifield station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Is Bewbush in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Bewbush is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
How much does floor joint sealing cost in Bewbush?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Normally it’s movement: timber drying in winter, floors settling, or caulk that can’t stretch. A flexible bead keeps up with the movement.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
It depends on the sealant, so let us know first. We use a paintable flexible sealant on joints you plan to paint, and silicone elsewhere.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Landlord and commercial work in Bewbush
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Light foot traffic is generally fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels, and we will tell you both.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact and the surface smoother.

DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
When it is not the sealant
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Movement too big for a sealant joint
- Concrete repairs beyond the joint
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before booking.
