Floor joint sealing in Margery, done properly
Gaps along the bottom of skirting are common in new and older homes alike. Caulk tends to crack there, so we use a flexible sealant that moves with the floor. Typical jobs include worn sealant at door thresholds and grout cracking in a straight line across a floor, on tiled floors, thresholds and commercial floors.
Older homes in small places like Margery often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Floor joint sealing around Margery
Floors around Surrey 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.
Community buildings like Church of Jesus Christ and the Wisdom of God are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. If you let a flat or house near Reigate station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

Margery questions
Is Margery in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Margery is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Is Margery within the area you cover?
Yes. Margery is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
It depends on the product and the conditions. We give you the times for walking, cleaning and traffic when we finish so there’s no guesswork.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Floors shrink and settle, especially in the first year or two and through the heating season pulls the skirting and floor apart. Rigid fillers split, so we use a flexible sealant.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
Typically it takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. In a small place like Margery, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Related advice
Surface by surface
Concrete floor joints
Sawn joints in concrete floors control where it cracks. They’re resealed with a product chosen for what runs over them.
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Margery
Water and dirt collect in open floor joints. In wet areas, water runs into the gap at every clean.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
If you look after a building such as Kingswood Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.
