How we handle floor joint sealing in Poynings
Across Poynings, we seal floor and skirting joints in homes and businesses. Each job starts with looking at the floor and the gap, since that decides which sealant suits. We work on tiled floors, skirting boards and commercial floors, and the jobs we see most are rigid edge joints in tiled floors and gaps opening between the floor and skirting.
Somewhere as small as Poynings, 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 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

Why it’s worth doing now in Poynings
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Sealing them now keeps the problem at the surface. In a small place like Poynings, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Why Poynings clients choose us

What affects the cost of floor joint sealing
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- The amount of work
- The type of sealant required
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Working hours on commercial sites
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
Asking for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- The rough size of the job
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
When it is not the sealant
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Tiles that have lifted or broken
- Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
- Leaks from a failed tanking system
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

How it works
There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes for a typical job. In a small place like Poynings, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints

Floor joint sealing in Poynings: local notes
Across West Sussex, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
For landlords with property near Hassocks station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. For buildings such as The Church of the Holy Trinity, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
Poynings is about 4 miles north of Brighton and Hove, in West Sussex. We provide floor joint sealing to homeowners, landlords and businesses in Poynings and the surrounding area, as part of our work across West Sussex. We cover 371 towns and villages across West Sussex.

What else we do in Poynings
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Use furniture pads near skirting
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Cone off the area if needed.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. A sound seal stops that happening.

How do I get a quote for floor joint sealing in Poynings?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
Follow the cure time we give you. Light use comes first, cleaning and heavy traffic later in most cases.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes, from warehouses and units to offices and shops. We can plan around your opening times with out-of-hours work where needed.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
