How we handle floor joint sealing in St Leonards
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone because it handles water. We work on skirting boards, commercial floors and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are open joints that fill with dirt and open joints around bathroom floor edges.
For a new home in or near St Leonards, it’s worth checking the sealant early. Common snags include open skirting joints, lifting shower seals and gaps around frames.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What floor joint sealing looks like in St Leonards
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.
Managing a site like St Ives Primary & Nursery School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. For buildings such as All Saints, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

- Movement too big for a sealant joint

What happens if it’s left?
Filling a skirting gap with caulk looks fine at first, but the movement soon cracks it. A flexible sealant moves with the floor and keeps the joint sealed. Around St Leonards, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first and give you a clear price before we start.

St Leonards: your questions answered
Is floor joint sealing in St Leonards guaranteed?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you cover St Leonards for floor joint sealing?
Yes, St Leonards is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes, including warehouses, units, shops and offices. We can plan around your opening times, and out-of-hours work can be arranged.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
Follow the cure time we give you. Feet are generally fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels in most cases.
The process
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes in most cases. Parking around St Leonards is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
How to get a quote
Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job, and pictures are welcome.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Don’t fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Feet are generally fine before mopping or wheeled traffic, and we’ll tell you both.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further.
Surface by surface
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. We rake out any grout there and reseal.
Thresholds
Thresholds take daily traffic, so the sealant has to be tough as well as flexible.
