How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself generally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Highbrook, 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.
How to prepare
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Floor joint sealing in Highbrook
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We use a flexible product that suits both floors so the joint stays neat. We are often asked to deal with open joints around bathroom floor edges and threshold joints that have opened or worn, on thresholds, concrete floor joints and skirting boards.
In a village or hamlet like Highbrook, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Movement too big for a sealant joint
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Where we work in Highbrook
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Thresholds
- Commercial floors
- Tiled floors
- Skirting boards
- Concrete floor joints
Why it’s worth doing now in Highbrook
Caulk is quick and cheap, but it cracks where the joint moves or gets wet, but the movement soon cracks it. A flexible sealant stretches instead. In a small place like Highbrook, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Different surfaces, different methods
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A flexible seal stops water running into the gap.
Skirting boards
Skirting pulls away from the floor as floors shrink and settle. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking painted or coloured to match.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Highbrook
Floors around West 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.
For buildings such as All Saints Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Managing a site like St Peter's CofE Primary School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

When to call us in Highbrook

Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
Rented homes near Balcombe station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.
Comparing quotes

- What product goes in the joint
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Whether VAT is included
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
Lift furniture rather than sliding it over sealed joints. Dragging can tear the bead.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further.
