Joints and finishes in East Hoathly homes
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.
For buildings such as The Parish Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Schools such as East Hoathly CofE Primary School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. Letting a property close to Uckfield station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

How we handle floor joint sealing in East Hoathly
We seal floor joints in homes, offices and commercial buildings across East Hoathly. Each job starts with looking at the floor and the gap, because the right sealant depends on both. We work on thresholds, concrete floor joints and commercial floors, and common reasons people get in touch are concrete floor joints that have broken down and dirt and water collecting in open floor joints.
Around East Hoathly, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

The process
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like East Hoathly needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
- We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any parking rules near the property
Ask for a quote
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email pictures if that’s easy.

- A tiled floor that needs relaying
- Movement too big for a sealant joint

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
Have a look at the joints once the heating season is over. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up before they spread.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Sealing them early protects the edges and the floor safer.
East Hoathly questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Uckfield station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you cover East Hoathly for floor joint sealing?
Yes, East Hoathly is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk works on still, dry joints, but it splits where the joint moves or gets wet. We use a flexible sealant for most skirting and floor joints.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.

Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
How do I get a quote for floor joint sealing in East Hoathly?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything isn’t right with the work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.
Why act early in East Hoathly
Waiting until the next redecoration can mean a winter of draughts and dirt in the gaps. It’s a quick job to seal them now for most homes. Older cottages and farmhouses around East Hoathly can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
Why East Hoathly customers choose us
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Colour agreed with you before work begins

Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
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.
