Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Redford
The gap under a skirting board often opens as floors and walls move with the seasons. Caulk tends to crack there, so we close it with a flexible sealant instead. We are often asked to deal with caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout, across concrete floor joints, skirting boards and tiled floors.
In a village or hamlet like Redford, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Why act early in Redford
Floor joints left open collect dirt that’s hard to clean out and makes the floor look worn. A neat sealed joint is easier to clean and finishes the floor. Older cottages and farmhouses around Redford can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Floor joint sealing in Redford: local notes
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 Church of St Luke are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Letting a property close to Liphook station? Then open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
Keep heavy furniture from dragging across the joints. Dragging can tear the bead.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. Adding a movement joint early can stop cracks spreading to the tiles.

Questions from Redford
Do you work for landlords with property near Liphook station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Will you come out to Redford?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking like caulk.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Often, yes, where it suits the floor. The grout is raked out and replaced with a flexible sealant in a colour to suit, giving the floor room to move.
What affects the quote in Redford
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The number of rooms or windows
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- The address or postcode of the job
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. Whenever you’re ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Advice
Surface by surface
Skirting boards
If the skirting is painted, a paintable flexible sealant works well. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is normally better.
Tiled floors
Perimeter joints in tiled floors should be sealant, not grout. We rake out any grout there and reseal.
