Floor joint sealing in New England, done properly
Every floor moves a little, so its edges need a joint that can flex. We seal skirting gaps, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints. If you’re dealing with grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant and chipped and open joints in warehouse floors, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
For a small place like New England, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:

Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
For anyone letting property in or around New England, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
How the visit works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes for a typical job. In a small place like New England, access is generally 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.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
How to prepare
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Look at floor joints each spring
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it until it’s ready.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further.
Common questions in New England
Do you cover New England for floor joint sealing?
Yes, New England is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is there a guarantee on floor joint sealing in New England?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes. We reseal concrete floor joints in commercial and industrial units. We’ll talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Usually, yes. A crack along a grout line often means the floor needs room to move. We replace that grout with a flexible joint.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, it won’t last. 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.
How the job changes by surface
Concrete floor joints
We clean concrete joints out thoroughly before sealing first. We fit backing where needed.
Tiled floors
Large or heated tiled floors need room to move. Where needed, a line of grout is replaced with flexible sealant.
Why it’s worth doing now in New England
The right product depends on the floor and the traffic: flexible sealant for skirting and tiles, silicone in wet areas, and floor-joint products for concrete. Getting that choice wrong is a common reason joints fail. In a small place like New England, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

New homes and floors in New England
Floors around Essex run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Around New England, as everywhere, floor joint sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Leonard, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
