How we handle floor joint sealing in Dulwich Village
The gap under a skirting board often opens as floors and walls move with the seasons. Decorators’ caulk usually cracks where there’s movement, so we close it with a flexible sealant instead. If you are dealing with open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards and cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens, we can help, whatever the surface.
London homes range from new-build flats to period conversions with new floors laid over old boards. Wherever a floor meets a wall, a skirting or a threshold, the joint has to allow for movement, in Dulwich Village as anywhere.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Dulwich Village
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger 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 they do not all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
As a London address, Dulwich Village can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. Schools such as Dulwich Hamlet Junior School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Dulwich Village
Is parking a problem for a job in Dulwich Village?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
Is Dulwich Village in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Dulwich Village is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured for every job we do.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.
When can I walk on the floor?
It depends on the product and the conditions. We give you the times for walking, cleaning and traffic when we finish.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What happens if it’s left?
Dirt builds up in open joints. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Dulwich Village, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
Keep heavy furniture from dragging across the joints. Dragging can tear the bead especially in the first few days.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Dulwich Village
Caulk is the usual filler for skirting. It cracks where there’s movement or water, which is why so many skirting joints look broken.
Look out for any of the following:
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
Letting a property close to North Dulwich station? Then open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.
