Floor joint sealing in Monk's Gate, done properly
Large tiled floors, and those over underfloor heating, often need movement joints. Where one is needed, we rake out the grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant. We work on wet room & bathroom floors, tiled floors and thresholds, and the jobs we see most are open joints that fill with dirt and failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels.
Work in a small place like Monk's Gate just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee.

DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. 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.
FAQs for Monk's Gate
Is Monk's Gate within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you cover Monk's Gate for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Monk's Gate is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
When can I walk on the floor?
We’ll tell you before we leave. It depends on the sealant, and walking on it usually comes before mopping or wheeled traffic.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. These joints get wet every time the floor is cleaned, so we seal them with silicone suited to wet areas.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long will you be here?
Typically it takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee.
Joints and finishes in Monk's Gate homes
Floors around West Sussex run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you let a flat or house near Horsham station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. If you look after a building such as St Andrew's CofE Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

When to call us in Monk's Gate
Concrete floor joints break down when traffic runs over open or failed joints. Pallet trucks and trolleys knock the edges away until the joint widens.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
Community buildings like Church of the Good Shepherd are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- What insurance they hold
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
Why deal with it now?
Not every floor joint takes the same sealant: flexible sealant for skirting and tiles, silicone in wet areas, and floor-joint products for concrete. Using the wrong one is why many floor joints fail. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Monk's Gate, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The visit itself normally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint, depending on how much there is to do. In a small place like Monk's Gate, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- 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.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
