About our floor joint sealing in Itchingfield
Thresholds are where two floors, or a floor and a door, meet. We use a flexible product that suits both floors so the joint stays neat. If you’re dealing with floor edges that trap water and grime and open joints around bathroom floor edges, we can put it right, on thresholds, wet room & bathroom floors and tiled floors alike.
Older homes in small places like Itchingfield often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Joints and finishes in Itchingfield homes
Floors around West Sussex run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you look after a building such as Barns Green Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. Rented homes near Christs Hospital station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.
Itchingfield is about 4 miles west of Horsham, in West Sussex.

What happens on the day
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint from start to finish. Somewhere like Itchingfield needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided 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.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- A flexible sealant, or a floor-joint sealant for concrete, is applied in a colour to suit.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Common questions in Itchingfield
Will you come out to Itchingfield?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is Itchingfield in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Itchingfield is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
If you tell us beforehand, yes. Joints that will be painted get a paintable product.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Often, yes, where it suits the floor. The grout is raked out and replaced with a flexible sealant in a colour to suit so the floor can move.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we’re done.
What the job involves on each surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A neat silicone joint keeps it out.
Skirting boards
On painted skirting, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Where water is involved, silicone is the better choice.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Itchingfield
An open floor joint fills with dirt and water. In kitchens and bathrooms, mop water gets into the gap and can reach the subfloor.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as The Parish Church of St Nicolas, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

What happens if it’s left?
Floor joints left open collect dirt that’s hard to clean out and makes the floor look worn. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean and finishes the floor. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Itchingfield, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
