How we handle floor joint sealing in Pevensey
Gaps along the bottom of skirting are common in new and older homes alike. Decorators’ caulk generally cracks where there’s movement, so we close it with a flexible sealant instead. We’re often asked to deal with cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens and worn sealant at door thresholds, across commercial floors, wet room & bathroom floors and concrete floor joints.
Somewhere as small as Pevensey, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

When something else is needed
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
- Concrete repairs beyond the joint
- Leaks from a failed tanking system
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal

What the job involves on each surface
Concrete floor joints
Open concrete joints chip at the edges when wheels cross them. A sealed joint protects the edges and stops debris collecting.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A flexible seal stops water running into the gap.
Why deal with it now?
Waiting until the next redecoration can mean a winter of draughts and dirt in the gaps. It’s a quick job to seal them now for most homes. Older cottages and farmhouses around Pevensey can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Joints and finishes in Pevensey homes
Floors around East 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.
For buildings such as St. Nicolas Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. If you look after a building such as Pevensey and Westham CofE Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. Letting a property close to Pevensey Bay station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

What affects the cost of floor joint sealing
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The size of the job
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- What’s wrong with the joints now

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 fails, we can still redo it.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Pevensey questions
Is Pevensey within the area you cover?
Yes. Pevensey is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Pevensey Bay station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it in a colour to suit.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
Usually, yes. Straight cracks in grout often show where a movement joint was needed. We replace that grout with a flexible joint.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
A typical job takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured for every job we do.
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Don’t paint over silicone
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
Silicone sealant is not made to take paint. If the joint will be painted, tell us beforehand so we use a paintable sealant.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
How it works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. In a small place like Pevensey, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
