Leave it or put it right?
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. Sealing them now is a short job. In a small place like Ranmore Common, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

About our floor joint sealing in Ranmore Common
Concrete floors in warehouses and units have joints that take heavy wear. Each is resealed with a floor-joint product suited to what runs over it. We’re often asked to deal with concrete floor joints that have broken down and caulk that has cracked where the floor moves, on skirting boards, commercial floors and wet room & bathroom floors.
Somewhere as small as Ranmore Common, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey.

FAQs for Ranmore Common
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Dorking West station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Will you come out to Ranmore Common?
Yes, Ranmore Common is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Generally, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we will agree it with you first.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Normally it’s movement: heating drying the timber, or a filler that is too rigid. A flexible sealant stays closed as the floor moves.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
It depends on the product and the conditions. Before we leave, we tell you when it can be walked on, mopped and driven over so there’s no guesswork.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
What sealant work can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing
- Large cracks that need a surveyor
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before booking.

Surface by surface
Concrete floor joints
Hard wheels break down the edges of open joints. Sealing them supports the edges and keeps dirt out.
Wet room and bathroom floors
In a wet room, the floor-to-wall joint is a key line of defence. We reseal it with a flexible silicone suited to wet areas, and we will tell you if the leak seems to come from elsewhere.
When to call us in Ranmore Common
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons. Heating dries timber and opens gaps along the skirting, then close again in damper months.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
If you let a flat or house near Dorking West station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

For landlords and businesses
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.

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Don’t paint over silicone
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
Avoid flooding the floor when you clean. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.
