About our floor joint sealing in Southwick
Floors move, and the joint where they meet a wall, skirting, threshold or another floor has to move with them. We seal skirting gaps, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. If you’re dealing with threshold joints that have opened or worn and tiled floors with no room to move, we can help, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Southwick, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
- Don’t paint over silicone
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
Silicone sealant isn’t made to take paint. If you plan to paint, we’ll use a paintable product.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen and are harder to clean out.

Common questions in Southwick
Do you cover Southwick for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Southwick is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
I let a flat near Portchester station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Generally, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we will agree it with you first.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. Where a floor meets a bath panel, kitchen plinth or skirting in a wet area, we use a flexible silicone to keep mop water out.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
How much does floor joint sealing cost in Southwick?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
If you tell us beforehand, yes. Joints that will be painted get a paintable product.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
What affects the quote in Southwick
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Access and height
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- If someone has resealed it before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Whether it’s a home or a business
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. When it suits you, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Do you need floor joint sealing in Southwick?
Caulk is the usual filler for skirting. In a joint that moves or gets wet, it splits.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
Community buildings like Church of St James Without the Priory Gate are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Whether they’re fully insured
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not

What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
- Movement too big for a sealant joint
- Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Concrete floor joints
- Tiled floors
- Thresholds
- Skirting boards
- Commercial floors
- Wet room & bathroom floors
Why deal with it now?
An open concrete floor joint gets wider every time something heavy crosses it. Resealing it early protects the edges before they need a bigger repair. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Southwick, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Why book with us
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- Every job guaranteed for a year
- More than 20 years in sealant work

Floor joint sealing in Southwick: local notes
Floors around Hampshire 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as King Richard School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. If you let a flat or house near Portchester station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.
