Floor joint sealing in Dukes Green, done properly
Concrete floors in warehouses and units have joints that take heavy wear. Each is resealed with a floor-joint product suited to what runs over it. If you have concrete floor joints that have broken down and skirting that has pulled away from the floor, we can help.
Older homes in small places like Dukes Green often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

How we quote for floor joint sealing
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The amount of work
- Any mould that needs treating
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
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. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Roughly how big the job is
- If someone has resealed it before
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- A few photos by email, if you can
We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job, and photos are welcome.
Dukes Green: your questions answered
I let a flat near Berwick (Sussex) station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Dukes Green?
Yes. Dukes Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk cannot cope with movement or water. Skirting joints move with the floor, so a flexible sealant suits them better.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Movement from drying timber and settling floors opens the gap. Caulk tends to crack; a flexible sealant does not.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. These joints get wet every time the floor is cleaned, so we seal them with silicone suited to wet areas.
Floor joint sealing in Dukes Green: local notes
Across East Sussex, 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.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as The Parish Church of St Michael the Archangel, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. If you look after a building such as Alfriston School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Local landmarks in Dukes Green

What happens if it’s left?
Regrouting a cracked line in a tiled floor rarely fixes it. If the floor needs to move there, the grout will crack again. Replacing that line with flexible sealant gives it somewhere to go. Older cottages and farmhouses around Dukes Green can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

What we are called out for in Dukes Green
Decorators’ caulk is often used along skirting because it’s cheap and paintable. In a joint that moves or gets wet, it splits so the gap reappears.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Tiled floors with no room to move
If you let a flat or house near Berwick (Sussex) station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

How the visit works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint for a typical job. For a village or hamlet like Dukes Green, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- A flexible sealant, or a floor-joint sealant for concrete, is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
