Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Cubitt Town
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side. We work on skirting boards, concrete floor joints and commercial floors, and people most often call us about rigid edge joints in tiled floors and skirting caulk that keeps splitting.
From brand-new flats to converted terraces with new flooring, London has every kind of floor. Every joint between floor, skirting and threshold has to cope with some movement.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

What happens if it’s left?
The right product depends on the floor and the traffic: skirting and tiled floors need flexibility, wet areas need water resistance and concrete needs a product suited to wheels. Using the wrong one is why many floor joints fail. In a flat in Cubitt Town, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why book with us
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet

What affects the cost of floor joint sealing
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether the work is at height
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What to tell us for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Roughly how big the job is
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
Need a quote? Please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the job. You’ll know what we plan to do, and what it will cost, before any work begins.
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Don’t paint over silicone
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
Have a look at the joints once the heating season is over. If anything has opened, it’s easy to reseal before they spread.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. Resealing early keeps it out.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
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.

What else we do in Cubitt Town
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
When something else is needed
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Concrete repairs beyond the joint
- Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Thresholds
- Skirting boards

New homes and floors in Cubitt Town
Floors around Greater London run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that. Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent.
Rented homes near Canary Wharf station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Cubitt Town Infants' School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. Community buildings like Christ Church are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

The process

- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Preparing for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
