Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can go on one quote.
About our floor joint sealing in Hastings
Good floor joints come down to the right product and clean, prepared edges. We remove what’s there first, then clean, back and seal the joint. We work on skirting boards, wet room & bathroom floors and concrete floor joints, and common reasons people get in touch are floor edges that trap water and grime and gaps between floors and kitchen plinths.
A place the size of Hastings has new developments as well as older streets. Snags in sealant and floor joints often show in a new home’s first year or two, as a new house dries out and settles.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Hastings as everywhere else we work.

How the job changes by surface
Skirting boards
Gaps between skirting and floor open as timber and floors move. We seal them with a flexible sealant rather than caulk painted or coloured to match.
Tiled floors
Tiled floors need movement joints at edges and across large areas. Where needed, a line of grout is replaced with flexible sealant coloured to suit.
Questions from Hastings
Is Hastings in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Hastings is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Is there a guarantee on floor joint sealing in Hastings?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
For painted skirting, we use a flexible product that can be painted. Silicone will not take paint, so it’s kept for wet areas and unpainted joints.
Why not just use caulk?
Caulk can’t cope with movement or water. Skirting joints move with the floor, so we use a flexible sealant that stretches.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
Do you seal warehouse floor joints?
Yes, including warehouses, units, shops and offices. Work can be planned around your hours with out-of-hours work where needed.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.

What else we do in Hastings
Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
How it works
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Jobs in a place the size of Hastings range from town-centre flats to offices and family homes. Whichever it is, tell us how to get in, where to park and where the work is.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Floor joint sealing in Hastings: local notes
Floors around East Sussex 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.
Rented homes near St Leonards Warrior Square station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Luke's Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Common problems we fix in Hastings
Concrete floor joints break down when traffic runs over open or failed joints. Pallet trucks and trolleys knock the edges away.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
Managing a site like St Paul's Church of England Academy? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
