How we handle floor joint sealing in Laleham
Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. A flexible silicone seal keeps it out and stops dirt collecting. We are often asked to deal with concrete floor joints that have broken down and open joints that fill with dirt, on skirting boards, commercial floors and wet room & bathroom floors.
Homes around Laleham range from older cottages to newer houses, and their floors range just as widely, each moving in its own way. The sealant at skirtings and thresholds has to suit the floor it meets.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Laleham and across Surrey.

What happens on the day
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors in most cases. For a job in Laleham, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Common questions in Laleham

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is Laleham in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Laleham is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. More than one area can be quoted together.
When can I walk on the floor?
That varies with the sealant and the room. Before we leave, we tell you when it can be walked on, mopped and driven over so you can plan.
Why deal with it now?
Caulk is quick and cheap, but it cracks where the joint moves or gets wet, so the gap reappears. A flexible sealant stretches instead, so the joint stays closed. In a smaller place like Laleham, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first.

How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
Check the joints after the first winter. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up before they spread.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and the edges sound.

Community buildings like Church of All Saints are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Laleham CofE VA Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Different surfaces, different methods
Concrete floor joints
Sawn joints in concrete floors control where it cracks. We reseal them with a floor-joint product suited to the traffic.
Skirting boards
Skirting gaps are one of the most common floor joints we seal. The old caulk is removed first so the bead sits on a clean surface.
