About our floor joint sealing in Norton
Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is usually the better choice. We work on tiled floors, commercial floors and skirting boards, and common reasons people get in touch are rigid edge joints in tiled floors and gaps at thresholds between rooms.
Around Norton, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in the Isle of Wight.

How the visit works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors, including the tidy-up. In a small place like Norton, 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.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- 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
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What sealant work cannot fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
- Large cracks that need a surveyor
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we agree the colour with you before any work starts.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Norton
Floors around the Isle of Wight run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Managing a site like Yarmouth Church of England Aided Primary School? Then entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. Letting a property close to Lymington Pier station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Why deal with it now?
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. Sealing them now is a short job for most homes. In a small place like Norton, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Do you need floor joint sealing in Norton?
A floor laid tight to the walls has no room to move. As it expands, the edges lift or crack and joints fail.
Look out for any of the following:
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St. James' Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
Keep heavy furniture from dragging across the joints. Dragging can tear the bead before it has fully cured.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. Resealing early keeps it out.
