Why deal with it now?
Waiting until the next redecoration can mean a winter of draughts and dirt in the gaps. Sealing them now is a short job in most rooms. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Somers Town, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Floor joint sealing in Somers Town, done properly
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 work on tiled floors, thresholds and commercial floors, and the jobs we see most are failed joint filler in concrete floors and skirting caulk that keeps splitting.
From brand-new flats to converted terraces with new flooring, London has every kind of floor. Every joint between floor, skirting and threshold has to cope with some movement, in Somers Town as anywhere.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

The process
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors, and the area is left clean. In Somers Town, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Floor joint sealing around Somers Town
Many of London’s new homes are flats in bigger developments, where snagging may go through the developer or managing agent. Across Greater London, 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.
Rented homes near London Euston station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. As a London address, Somers Town can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

What the job involves on each surface
Thresholds
Thresholds between rooms meet two floors and often a door frame. We seal them with a flexible sealant that suits both sides.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Wet room floors rely on sound joints at the walls. We reseal it with a flexible silicone suited to wet areas and we’ll say if the problem looks like more than the joint.
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
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. All the old material has to come out first.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Don’t paint over silicone
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
Lift furniture rather than sliding it over sealed joints. Dragging can tear the bead.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
