- Floor edges that trap water and grime

Why deal with it now?
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. It’s a quick job to seal them now. In a small place like Falmer, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

How we handle floor joint sealing in Falmer
Across Falmer, we seal floor and skirting joints in homes and businesses. We start by checking the floor type and the joint, because the right sealant depends on both. Typical jobs include caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and grout cracking in a straight line across a floor, on thresholds, concrete floor joints and tiled floors.
Work in a small place like Falmer just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can be quoted together.
If you manage several properties in or around Falmer, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Do you need floor joint sealing in Falmer?
New floors settle once they’re in use. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so, and rigid fillers crack.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
If you let a flat or house near Falmer station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Questions from Falmer
Can you do floor joint sealing in Falmer?
Yes, Falmer is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Falmer?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you reseal concrete floor joints in an industrial unit?
Yes, including warehouses, units, shops and offices. Work can be planned around your hours with out-of-hours work where needed.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
That varies with the sealant and the room. We give you the times for walking, cleaning and traffic when we finish.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we will put it right.
Do you use a paintable sealant?
Where the skirting will be painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Silicone is not made to be painted, so it’s kept for wet areas and unpainted joints.

Floor joint sealing in Falmer: local notes
Floors around Brighton and Hove run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Schools such as Brighton Aldridge Community Academy are buildings too, and floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. For buildings such as The Parish Church of St Lawrence, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it keeps the room tidier.
