- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Cone off the area if needed while it cures.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact.
Floor joint sealing in Climping, done properly
Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. We seal them with a flexible, water-resistant sealant. If you’re dealing with grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant and open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards, we can help, on concrete floor joints, commercial floors and tiled floors alike.
Somewhere as small as Climping, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

The process
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Somewhere as small as Climping, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor and smooth it.
- We check the joints and explain the aftercare.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

When to call us in Climping
New floors settle once they’re in use. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so and anything rigid cracks.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
Community buildings like The Parish Church of St Mary are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
What your quote should include
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Is the old sealant removed completely?

Floor joint sealing around Climping
Across West Sussex, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
If you let a flat or house near Littlehampton station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. If you look after a building such as St Mary's CofE Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes, at the edges and along suitable lines. The grout is raked out and replaced with a flexible sealant in a colour to suit so the floor can move.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Surface by surface
Commercial floors
Washroom and kitchen floors in commercial buildings need sound edge joints. They’re resealed with a flexible, water-resistant sealant.
Concrete floor joints
Old filler, dust and debris are cleaned out of the joint first. We fit backing where needed.
