Joints and finishes in Boxgrove homes
Floors around West Sussex run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Schools such as Boxgrove CofE Primary School are buildings too, and floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. Community buildings like The Priory Church of St Mary and St Blaize are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

About our floor joint sealing in Boxgrove
Large tiled floors, and those over underfloor heating, often need movement joints. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant coloured to suit the grout. Typical jobs include cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint and perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout, across wet room & bathroom floors, tiled floors and skirting boards.
Work in a small place like Boxgrove just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

How the job changes by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
In a wet room, the floor-to-wall joint is a key line of defence. It’s resealed with a sanitary silicone, and we will tell you if the leak seems to come from elsewhere.
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.
How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
Don’t paint over silicone. If you plan to paint, we will use a paintable product.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen over time.
Why it’s worth doing now in Boxgrove
Not every floor joint takes the same sealant: flexible sealant for skirting and tiles, silicone in wet areas, and floor-joint products for concrete. Using the wrong one is why many floor joints fail. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Boxgrove, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first.

How it works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before we start. The work usually takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere as small as Boxgrove, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor and tooled.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
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.
Do you need floor joint sealing in Boxgrove?
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open, then close again in damper months.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
Letting a property close to Chichester station? Then a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

Boxgrove questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Chichester 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’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Is Boxgrove within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes, at the edges and along suitable lines. We remove the grout and seal the line with flexible sealant so the floor can move.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Why not just use caulk?
Because caulk cracks where there’s movement or water. Floor edges move through the year, so we use a flexible sealant that stretches.
Can you reseal concrete floor joints in an industrial unit?
Yes. Concrete floor joints in warehouses and units are part of our work. The product is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we agree the colour with you before we start.
