Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Craig's End
Floors move, and the joint where they meet a wall, skirting, threshold or another floor has to move with them. Skirting-to-floor gaps, tiled floor joints and concrete joints are all sealed. If you are dealing with perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout and gaps opening between the floor and skirting, we can put it right, on skirting boards, commercial floors and thresholds alike.
Somewhere as small as Craig's End, 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.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Craig's End questions
Is there a guarantee on floor joint sealing in Craig's End?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Can you do floor joint sealing in Craig's End?
Yes, Craig's End is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. Where a floor meets a bath panel, kitchen plinth or skirting in a wet area, we use a flexible silicone.
Where do you work from?
We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Only on dry joints that do not move. It splits once the floor shifts and the gap reopens. A flexible sealant lasts longer there.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.

How the job changes by surface
Commercial floors
In commercial buildings, we can plan floor joint work around opening hours. We can arrange out-of-hours work where it’s needed.
Skirting boards
Gaps between skirting and floor open as timber and floors move. We seal them with a flexible sealant rather than caulk.

What happens if it’s left?
Caulk is quick and cheap, but it cracks where the joint moves or gets wet, but the movement soon cracks it. A flexible sealant stretches instead, so the joint stays closed. Around Craig's End, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

What we do, step by step
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere as small as Craig's End, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
