Floor & skirting joints in Burgess Hill, West Sussex
Sealing skirting-to-floor joints, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Burgess Hill. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
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 Burgess Hill, parking is rarely complicated, though it helps to know about driveways or restrictions, and mention if the work is upstairs, in a flat or high on the outside.
- We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
- We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us if parking is tricky

About our floor joint sealing in Burgess Hill
Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone, which is not made to be painted. If you have failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels and rigid edge joints in tiled floors, we can help, whatever the surface.
Small business units and shops in a town like Burgess Hill have floors that take heavy wear. Threshold and floor joints are best resealed before their edges start breaking away.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Burgess Hill and across West Sussex.

What we’re called out for in Burgess Hill
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. The edges pull away from the skirting and anything rigid cracks.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Wilfrid's Catholic Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long to leave it before use
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- How hidden problems are handled
- Whether you can choose the colour
Why deal with it now?
The right product depends on the floor and the traffic: skirting and tiled floors need flexibility, wet areas need water resistance and concrete needs a product suited to wheels. Using the wrong one is why many floor joints fail. Gaps in sealant and mould in the bead never get better on their own, and in a busy household in Burgess Hill they spread with every shower and every downpour. Replacing the sealant now is the simplest fix.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Burgess Hill
Across West Sussex, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
For landlords with property near Burgess Hill station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St John the Evangelist's Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it until it’s ready.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and the location, with pictures by email if possible. If we need more, we will ask.
Do you use a paintable sealant?
Where you plan to paint, we do. Silicone in bathrooms and kitchens can’t be painted.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
