How the job changes by surface
Skirting boards
Skirting-to-floor joints are a regular job for us. The old caulk is removed first.
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.
Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Slutshole
The gap under a skirting board often opens as floors and walls move with the seasons. Caulk tends to crack there, so we use a flexible sealant that moves with the floor. Common call-outs are for dirt and water collecting in open floor joints and gaps between floors and kitchen plinths, across wet room & bathroom floors, tiled floors and commercial floors.
Work in a small place like Slutshole just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Cone off the area if needed until it’s ready.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen and are harder to clean out.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Structural movement or subsidence
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
