Floor joint sealing in Merrow
Every floor moves a little, so its edges need a joint that can flex. Skirting-to-floor gaps, tiled floor joints and concrete joints are all sealed with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. Typical jobs include grout cracking in a straight line across a floor and chipped and open joints in warehouse floors, across concrete floor joints, skirting boards and wet room & bathroom floors.
Homes around Merrow range from older cottages to newer houses, and their floors range just as widely, each moving in its own way. Skirting and threshold joints need a sealant that suits the floor.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
Silicone sealant is not made to take paint. If you plan to paint, we’ll use a paintable product.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
New homes and floors in Merrow
Across Surrey, 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.
Managing a site like Bushy Hill Junior School? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St John the Evangelist, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
- Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor
- Large cracks that need a surveyor

Merrow: your questions answered
Will you come out to Merrow?
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.
I let a flat near Clandon station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk cannot cope with movement or water. Floor edges move through the year, so a flexible sealant suits them better.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
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.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes. Old filler is cleaned out and the joint resealed with a floor-joint product. Tell us what runs over the floor and we will quote.

What else we do in Merrow
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents and landlords in Merrow can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
What we do, step by step
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes from start to finish. In a smaller place like Merrow, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
- 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.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
Regrouting a cracked line in a tiled floor rarely fixes it. The movement is still there, so the grout fails again. A flexible movement joint is the fix. In a smaller place like Merrow, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins.

When to call us in Merrow
A floor laid tight to the walls has no room to move. It pushes against the walls and skirting as it expands, and the sealant or grout breaks.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
Rented homes near Clandon station change hands often, and a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.
