Floor joint sealing in Rew Street
Good floor joints come down to the right product and clean, prepared edges. We remove what’s there first, then clean, back and seal the joint. We work on thresholds, commercial floors and skirting boards, and people most often call us about gaps at thresholds between rooms and skirting that has pulled away from the floor.
Work in a small place like Rew Street just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.

Rew Street questions
Is there a guarantee on floor joint sealing in Rew Street?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is Rew Street in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Rew Street is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
On joints you want to paint, yes. Silicone in bathrooms and kitchens can’t be painted so mention it when you get a quote.
When can I walk on the floor?
Follow the cure time we give you. Feet are generally fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels in most cases.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
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.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Rew Street
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open, then close again in damper months.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
For buildings such as All Saints' Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- How much experience the applicator has
- What insurance they hold
- How hidden problems are handled
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
Have a look at the joints once the heating season is over. If anything has opened, it’s easy to reseal early on.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.

Across the Isle of Wight, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Northwood Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

The process
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins.

If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Commercial floors
In commercial buildings, we can plan floor joint work around opening hours. We can arrange out-of-hours work if the floor is busy.
Tiled floors
Large or heated tiled floors need room to move. We replace grout with flexible sealant along the right lines in a matching colour.
