Sealing skirting-to-floor joints, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints for Ifold, backed by a one-year guarantee. Call for a quick quote.
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Do not paint over silicone
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it until it’s ready.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
Floor joint sealing in Ifold, done properly
Thresholds are where two floors, or a floor and a door, meet. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side in a colour to suit. We are often asked to deal with perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout and failed joint filler in concrete floors, across concrete floor joints, tiled floors and thresholds.
Work in a small place like Ifold just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex.

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How much there is to do
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The type of sealant required
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

To help us quote quickly, please include:
- The problem you’ve noticed

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you’re ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Also in Ifold
Do you need floor joint sealing in Ifold?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open.
People normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St John the Baptist, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
What to look for in a quote
- How hidden problems are handled
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What insurance they hold
- How the colour is chosen
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Ifold, several properties can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Why act early in Ifold
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. Sealing them now is a short job. In a small place like Ifold, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
What you get with us
- Fully insured
- More than 20 years in sealant work
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Colour picked to suit the job

What happens on the day
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Somewhere like Ifold needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- We tool the joint 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
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice
Floor joint sealing in Ifold: local notes
Across West Sussex, 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Loxwood Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.
