Floor joint sealing in Farnborough, done properly
Good floor joints come down to the right product and clean, prepared edges. We remove what’s there first, the joint is cleaned and backed where needed, then the new sealant goes in. Typical jobs include rigid edge joints in tiled floors and worn sealant at door thresholds, on skirting boards, thresholds and concrete floor joints.
Shops, offices and commercial units across London have hard-wearing floors with movement joints that need resealing as they wear, while new homes need a neat, sound finish around frames, baths and kitchens before handover.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Signs you need floor joint sealing in Farnborough
Grout is rigid, so a tiled floor with nowhere to move cracks along a grout line. You’ll see a crack running along the grout, where a flexible joint should have been.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
As a London address, Farnborough can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
Check the joints after the first winter. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up before they spread.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. Adding a movement joint early can stop cracks spreading to the tiles.

Farnborough questions
Is Farnborough in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Farnborough is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Do you work for landlords with property near Orpington station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes. A crack along a grout line often means the floor needs room to move. We replace that grout with a flexible joint.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Movement from drying timber and settling floors opens the gap. Rigid fillers split, so we use a flexible sealant.
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.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes. We reseal concrete floor joints in commercial and industrial units. We will talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. For a job in Farnborough, parking and access are the things to plan: let us know about parking, the floor we will be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

New homes and floors in Farnborough
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent. Floors around Greater London run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Schools such as Farnborough Primary School are buildings too, and floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. Community buildings like Church of St Giles the Abbot are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.
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 fails, we can still redo it.
What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
- Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

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 most rooms. In a flat in Farnborough, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
