Floor joint sealing in Coombe Hill, done properly
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 with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. Common call-outs are for gaps opening between the floor and skirting and failed joint filler in concrete floors, on skirting boards, concrete floor joints and thresholds.
Across London, commercial floors have movement joints that break down under heavy foot traffic, while new homes need a neat, sound finish around frames, baths and kitchens before handover, in Coombe Hill and beyond.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Surface by surface
Tiled floors
A crack running along a grout line is often a sign of a missing movement joint. We rake out that line and seal it where it suits the floor.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Wet room floors rely on sound joints at the walls. We reseal it with a flexible silicone suited to wet areas.
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.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Cone off the area if needed.
A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and stops it getting worse.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Coombe Hill
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
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 that we can handle for you.
Leave it or put it right?
Not every floor joint takes the same sealant: skirting and tiled floors need flexibility, wet areas need water resistance and concrete needs a product suited to wheels. Getting that choice wrong is a common reason joints fail. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Coombe Hill, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Coombe Hill
Is parking an issue for floor joint sealing in Coombe Hill?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
Do you work for landlords with property near Norbiton station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Do you work in Coombe Hill?
Yes. We are based in Crawley and work across South East England, London and Scotland, Coombe Hill included.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Movement from drying timber and settling floors pulls the skirting and floor apart. Rigid fillers split, so we use a flexible sealant.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Normally, yes. Straight cracks in grout often show where a movement joint was needed. We rake out that line and seal it with flexible sealant.
What information do you need?
Tell us what needs doing and where, with pictures by email if possible. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
What we do, step by step
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint from start to finish. For a job in Coombe Hill, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.

Many of London’s new homes are flats in bigger developments, where snagging may go through the developer or managing agent. Across Greater London, 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.

Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.
