Newtimber: your questions answered
Will you come out to Newtimber?
Yes, Newtimber is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you do floor joint sealing in Newtimber?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Newtimber is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes, including warehouses, units, shops and offices. We can plan around your opening times, and out-of-hours work can be arranged.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Often, yes, where it suits the floor. We remove the grout and seal the line with flexible sealant.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Can tenants book the work?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.

Related advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Newtimber
An open concrete floor joint gets wider every time something heavy crosses it. A sealed joint supports the edges and keeps the damage down. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Newtimber, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Asking for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

Can I do it myself?
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, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Landlord and commercial work in Newtimber
For anyone letting property in or around Newtimber, several properties can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Light foot traffic is usually fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels, and we will tell you both.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Sealing them early protects the edges.
Floor joint sealing around Newtimber
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. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Community buildings like The Parish Church of St John Evangelist are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Rented homes near Hassocks station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

How the job changes by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
In a wet room, the floor-to-wall joint is a key line of defence. It’s resealed with a sanitary silicone.
Tiled floors
When grout cracks along a straight line, the floor is telling you it needs to move. We rake out that line and seal it if it’s in the right place.
