Lewisham Floor Joint Sealing

- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor

Floor joint sealing in Lewisham, done properly
Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is normally the better choice. If you have gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and chipped and open joints in warehouse floors, we can help.
New flats are going up across London, many of them in larger developments. In a new development, snags are often reported through the developer or the managing agent, and failed shower seals, open skirting joints and gaps at thresholds are typical.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

What sealant work can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Tiles that have lifted or broken
- Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor
- Structural movement or subsidence
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Concrete floor joints
- Tiled floors
- Commercial floors
- Thresholds
- Skirting boards
- Wet room & bathroom floors
Different surfaces, different methods
Commercial floors
In commercial buildings, we can plan floor joint work around opening hours. Out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Tiled floors
Perimeter joints in tiled floors should be sealant, not grout. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.
What we’re called out for in Lewisham
A floor laid tight to the walls has no room to move. As it expands, the edges lift or crack.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
Managing a site like St Saviour's Catholic Primary School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk can’t cope with movement or water. Floor edges move through the year, so a flexible sealant suits them better.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
What do you put in the joint?

Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Can you reseal concrete floor joints in an industrial unit?
Yes, from warehouses and units to offices and shops. We can plan around your opening times with out-of-hours work where needed.

Floor joint sealing around Lewisham
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent. Across Greater London, 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.

- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.

Why deal with it now?
Dirt builds up in open joints and makes the floor look worn. A neat sealed joint is easier to clean and look tidier. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and once it shows in Lewisham, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
