Floor joint sealing in Streat: local notes
Floors around West Sussex run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Managing a site like Plumpton Primary School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. If you let a flat or house near Plumpton station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Streat
Thresholds are where two floors, or a floor and a door, meet. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side in a colour to suit. If you’re dealing with perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout and open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Streat, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How the visit works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint, including the tidy-up. Somewhere as small as Streat, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us about any water getting in

Why it’s worth doing now in Streat
Putting new grout into a crack that keeps reappearing doesn’t last. The movement is still there, so the grout fails again. A flexible movement joint is the fix. Around Streat, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Should I try it myself first?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
FAQs for Streat
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Plumpton station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can you do floor joint sealing in Streat?
Yes, Streat is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. We cut out any old sealant or caulk and reseal with flexible silicone in a colour to suit.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
Where the skirting will be painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Silicone won’t take paint, so we use it where the joint stays unpainted.
When can I walk on the floor?
Follow the cure time we give you. Feet are normally fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels, depending on the product.
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Sealing them early protects the edges and the floor safer.
Surface by surface
Skirting boards
Gaps between skirting and floor open as timber and floors move. We seal them with a flexible sealant rather than caulk painted or coloured to match.
Thresholds
Thresholds take daily traffic, so we choose a hard-wearing, flexible product.
Common problems we fix in Streat
Grout is rigid, so a tiled floor with nowhere to move cracks along a grout line. You will see a crack running along the grout, where a flexible joint should have been.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
For buildings such as Streat Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
Questions to ask before booking
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
