Floor & skirting joints in Cobham, Surrey
Problem with your floor joints in Cobham? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
When something else is needed
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Structural movement or subsidence
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler

Floor joint sealing in Cobham
Floor joint sealing is mostly about choosing the right product and preparing the joint. We remove what’s there first, then clean, back and seal the joint. We work on commercial floors, concrete floor joints and wet room & bathroom floors, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and caulk that has cracked where the floor moves.
In and around Cobham, floors range from older timber boards to tiles and newer finishes, from timber that moves with the seasons to tiles laid on concrete. The sealant at skirtings and thresholds has to suit the floor it meets.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Surface by surface
Skirting boards
Skirting-to-floor joints are a regular job for us. The old caulk is removed first so the bead sits on a clean surface.
Thresholds
Threshold joints get a lot of feet, so the sealant has to be tough as well as flexible.
Your questions about floor joint sealing in Cobham
Will you come out to Cobham?
Yes, Cobham is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work for landlords with property near Cobham & Stoke Dabernon station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is it messy?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. Floor edges in bathrooms and kitchens get wet at every clean, so we seal them with silicone suited to wet areas.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
How long does the job take?
That depends on the amount of work, but most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
When can I walk on the floor?
You’ll get the times before we go. That depends on the product, and walking on it usually comes before mopping or wheeled traffic.
New homes and floors in Cobham
Floors around Surrey run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Andrew's CofE Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Andrew, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
How it works
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. A visit to Cobham is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and tooled.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
How to get a quote
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Cone off the area if needed.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
What we’re called out for in Cobham
Decorators’ caulk is often used along skirting because it’s cheap and paintable. In a joint that moves or gets wet, it splits, which is why so many skirting joints look broken.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
For landlords with property near Cobham & Stoke Dabernon station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.
