FAQs for Billingshurst
Will you come out to Billingshurst?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you cover Billingshurst for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Billingshurst is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
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.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Can I do it myself?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
Follow the cure time we give you. Feet are generally fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels, depending on the product.
Floor joint sealing in Billingshurst
In kitchens and bathrooms, the joint where the floor meets a bath panel, plinth or skirting takes mop water every day. A flexible silicone seal keeps it out and stops dirt collecting. We’re often asked to deal with dirt and water collecting in open floor joints and threshold joints that have opened or worn, on commercial floors, wet room & bathroom floors and skirting boards.
Where new homes go up in smaller places like Billingshurst, it’s often a small development or a single plot. The sealant around baths, showers, frames and skirtings needs to be right from the start.

When it is not the sealant
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Movement too big for a sealant joint
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
- Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Commercial floors
- Concrete floor joints
- Tiled floors
- Thresholds
- Skirting boards
How the job changes by surface
Thresholds
Two different floors meeting at a threshold move differently. A flexible sealant bridges them.
Concrete floor joints
We clean concrete joints out thoroughly before sealing, vacuuming them clean. We fit backing where needed.

Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. Sealing them now is a short job for most homes. In an older home around Billingshurst, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Signs you need floor joint sealing in Billingshurst
Decorators’ caulk is often used along skirting because it’s cheap and paintable. It cracks where there’s movement or water.
Look out for any of the following:
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
Schools such as Billingshurst Primary School are buildings too, and floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.

- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
