Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Shoreham
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 work on wet room & bathroom floors, concrete floor joints and commercial floors, and people most often call us about cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint and open joints around bathroom floor edges.
For a small place like Shoreham, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

New homes and floors in Shoreham
Across Kent, 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 site and facilities teams at buildings such as Shoreham Village School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. For buildings such as Church of St Peter and St Paul, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Do you need floor joint sealing in Shoreham?
Caulk is the usual filler for skirting. It cracks where there’s movement or water so the gap reappears.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
If you let a flat or house near Shoreham (Kent) station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Shoreham: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Shoreham?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Shoreham (Kent) station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking like caulk.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Why not just use caulk?
Caulk is fine for dry joints that don’t move, but it splits where the joint moves or gets wet. We use a flexible sealant for most skirting and floor joints.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
In many cases, yes. Where a floor needs one, we rake out grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant in a matching colour. Loose or cracked tiles need a tiler first.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. We cut out any old sealant or caulk and reseal with flexible silicone, colour-matched where it shows.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Different surfaces, different methods
Concrete floor joints
Hard wheels break down the edges of open joints. A sealed joint protects the edges.
Commercial floors
Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. We talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
The process
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere as small as Shoreham, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- A flexible sealant, or a floor-joint sealant for concrete, is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Why act early in Shoreham
Water that gets past a floor joint can damage the floor beneath. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. Older cottages and farmhouses around Shoreham can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
Why us?
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- Old sealant always removed completely

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Keeping the edges drier helps the sealant last longer.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen.
