Floor joint sealing in Church Town
Floors move, and the joint where they meet a wall, skirting, threshold or another floor has to move with them. We seal skirting gaps, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints using a product that suits the floor. If you are dealing with failed joint filler in concrete floors and threshold joints that have opened or worn, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Church Town, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Church Town
Do you cover smaller places like Church Town?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you work for landlords with property near Godstone station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Can you match the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll explain which colours are available.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
Often, yes. Where a floor needs one, we rake out grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant coloured to suit. Loose or cracked tiles need a tiler first.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we are done.
Do you use a paintable sealant?
If you tell us beforehand, yes. Joints that will be painted get a paintable product and wet areas get silicone.

When to call us in Church Town
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons. Heating dries timber and opens gaps along the skirting.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
If you let a flat or house near Godstone station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

What happens on the day
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like Church Town needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.
Getting ready for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Advice
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Floor joint sealing around Church Town
Floors around Surrey 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.
For buildings such as Church of St Nicholas, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Schools such as Godstone Village School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

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. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.
Skirting boards
On painted skirting, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Where water is involved, silicone is the better choice.
