Floor joint sealing in Grafham
Floor joint sealing is mostly about choosing the right product and preparing the joint. We remove what’s there first, then clean, back and seal the joint. We’re often asked to deal with concrete floor joints that have broken down and grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant, across commercial floors, tiled floors and concrete floor joints.
Somewhere as small as Grafham, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

What sealant work cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.

Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Questions from Grafham
Is Grafham within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Chilworth station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Where do you work from?
We’re based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we’re fully insured too.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
It’s normally the floor moving: heating drying the timber, or a filler that is too rigid. A flexible bead keeps up with the movement.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours for many products, and we will agree it with you first.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
If you manage several properties in or around Grafham, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
How the job changes by surface
Concrete floor joints
Open concrete joints chip at the edges when wheels cross them. A sealed joint protects the edges.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A flexible seal stops water running into the gap.
What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In a small place like Grafham, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What else we do in Grafham
When to call us in Grafham
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so and anything rigid cracks.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Andrew, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
What to look for in a quote
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- How long to leave it before use
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
New homes and floors in Grafham
Across Surrey, 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. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
If you let a flat or house near Chilworth station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Don’t fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Use furniture pads near skirting
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Feet are usually fine before mopping or wheeled traffic.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
