Surface by surface
Thresholds
Where a tiled floor meets timber or carpet, the joint takes movement from both sides. We bridge them with a flexible bead.
Skirting boards
Skirting pulls away from the floor as floors shrink and settle. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking in a colour to suit.
Floor joint sealing in Ringmer
Every floor moves a little, so its edges need a joint that can flex. We seal skirting gaps, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints using a product that suits the floor. We work on concrete floor joints, thresholds and commercial floors, and people most often call us about floor edges that trap water and grime and grout cracking in a straight line across a floor.
Where new homes go up in smaller places like Ringmer, it’s often a small development or a single plot. The sealant around baths, showers, frames and skirtings needs to be right from the start.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Don’t paint over silicone
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Light foot traffic is generally fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further and are harder to clean out.
Why act early in Ringmer
Filling a skirting gap with caulk looks fine at first, so the gap reappears. A flexible sealant moves with the floor. In a smaller place like Ringmer, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.

Ringmer: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Glynde station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Is Ringmer within the area you cover?
Yes, Ringmer is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Often, yes. Where a floor needs one, we rake out grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant coloured to suit. If tiles are loose, that needs fixing first.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Caulk works on still, dry joints, but it splits where the joint moves or gets wet. We use a flexible sealant for most skirting and floor joints.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
It depends on the sealant, so let us know first. We use a paintable flexible sealant on joints you plan to paint, and silicone elsewhere.
How much does floor joint sealing cost in Ringmer?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Large cracks that need a surveyor
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
- Concrete repairs beyond the joint
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Joints and finishes in Ringmer 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’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Schools such as Ringmer Primary and Nursery School are buildings too, and floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. For landlords with property near Glynde station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

When to call us in Ringmer
New floors settle once they’re in use. The edges pull away from the skirting.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
Community buildings like The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

The process
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint for a typical job. For a job in Ringmer, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and smooth it.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
