DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
About our floor joint sealing in Earl's Court
Every floor moves a little, so its edges need a joint that can flex. Skirting-to-floor gaps, tiled floor joints and concrete joints are all sealed. We are often asked to deal with failed joint filler in concrete floors and cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens, across wet room & bathroom floors, skirting boards and thresholds.
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments. Snagging there often goes through the developer or managing agent, and shower seals that fail early, skirting joints that open up and gaps at thresholds are all common snags.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Different surfaces, different methods
Commercial floors
In commercial buildings, we can plan floor joint work around opening hours. Out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Concrete floor joints
Open concrete joints chip at the edges when wheels cross them. A sealed joint protects the edges and stops debris collecting.
FAQs for Earl's Court
Is parking a problem for a job in Earl's Court?
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.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near West Brompton station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
Often, yes, at the edges and along suitable lines. The grout is raked out and replaced with a flexible sealant in a colour to suit.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Not where the floor moves or gets wet. It splits once the floor shifts and the gap reopens. A flexible sealant lasts longer there.
What floor joint sealing looks like in Earl's Court
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 they don’t all move the same 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 St Cuthbert's, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. If you look after a building such as St Cuthbert with St Matthias CofE Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

What we are called out for in Earl's Court
An open floor joint fills with dirt and water. In wet areas, water runs into the gap at every clean and behind skirting and plinths.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
Rented homes near West Brompton station change hands often, and a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.
