FAQs for Maudlin
Is Maudlin within the area you cover?
Yes, Maudlin is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Chichester station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
It’s normally the floor moving: heating drying the timber, or a filler that is too rigid. A flexible bead keeps up with the movement.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
How long will you be here?
That depends on how much there is to do, but most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. We will tell you when we quote.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The product needed can limit the range.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Every job comes with a one-year guarantee.
Where do you work from?
We are based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Maudlin
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We use a flexible product that suits both floors in a colour to suit. If you have skirting caulk that keeps splitting and cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint, we can help, whatever the surface.
Around Maudlin, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Maudlin
Across West Sussex, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
If you let a flat or house near Chichester station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. For buildings such as The Parish Church of St Peter, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The March CofE Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Why act early in Maudlin
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Sealing them now keeps the problem at the surface. Around Maudlin, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Roughly how big the job is
- The problem you’ve noticed
- If someone has resealed it before
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll take it from there.
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Keeping the edges drier helps the sealant last longer.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further over time.
