What affects the cost of floor joint sealing
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- How many areas need sealing
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The product the joint needs
- Whether the work is at height
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

About our floor joint sealing in Bromley Common
Concrete floors in warehouses and units have joints that take heavy wear. Each is resealed with a floor-joint product suited to what runs over it. If you have gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
New flats are going up across London, many of them in larger developments. Snagging there often goes through the developer or managing agent, and shower seals that fail early, skirting joints that open up and gaps at thresholds are all common snags.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Surface by surface
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.
Wet room and bathroom floors
In a wet room, the floor-to-wall joint is a key line of defence. We reseal it with a flexible silicone suited to wet areas, and we’ll tell you if the leak seems to come from elsewhere.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Questions from Bromley Common
Is parking a problem for a job in Bromley Common?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
I let a flat near Bickley station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Normally it’s movement: heating drying the timber, or a filler that’s too rigid. A flexible bead keeps up with the movement.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available and agree one before work begins.
How long does the job take?
Most jobs take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Where do you work from?
We are based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and we will quote it together.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
It depends on the sealant, so let us know first. Joints that will be painted get a paintable product and wet areas get silicone.

What we do, step by step
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice
Floor joint sealing in Bromley Common: local notes
Floors around Greater London 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. Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snagging may go through the developer or managing agent.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Trinity Church of England Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. Rented homes near Bickley station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

What’s near Bromley Common

Other landmarks nearby include Bridgeways Day Hospital (under half a mile east) and Bethlem Museum of the Mind (within half a mile south-west). The countryside around Bromley Common includes Summer Hill and Downham Woodland Walk.
Why deal with it now?
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Bromley Common, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
