About our floor joint sealing in Surbiton
In commercial and industrial units, concrete floor joints take a hammering from wheels and traffic. We reseal them with a product chosen for the movement and the traffic. We work on wet room & bathroom floors, thresholds and concrete floor joints, and people most often call us about cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint and cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens.
London homes range from new-build flats to period conversions with new floors laid over old boards. Wherever a floor meets a wall, a skirting or a threshold, the joint has to allow for movement, in Surbiton as anywhere.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Surbiton questions
Do you cover Surbiton for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Surbiton is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
I let a flat near Surbiton station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
Where the skirting will be painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Silicone will not take paint, so we use it where the joint stays unpainted.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
We’ll tell you before we leave. It depends on the sealant, and light foot traffic is generally fine before wet cleaning or wheels.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Only on dry joints that don’t move. It splits once the floor shifts. A flexible sealant is the better choice.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
What affects the cost of floor joint sealing
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether the work is at height
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The product the joint needs
- The old material and how stubborn it is
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before any work starts.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the property is
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
The process
On the day, we start by going over the job with you. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Surbiton. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor and smooth it.
- We check the joints and explain the aftercare.
Getting ready for the visit

- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Related advice
What we’re called out for in Surbiton
New floors settle once they’re in use. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so and anything rigid cracks.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
Rented homes near Surbiton station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

What the job involves on each surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A neat silicone joint keeps it out.
Concrete floor joints
Open concrete joints chip at the edges when wheels cross them. Sealing them supports the edges and keeps dirt out.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What floor joint sealing looks like in Surbiton
Floors around Greater London run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that. Many of London’s new homes are flats in bigger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent.
Managing a site like Lime Tree Primary School? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. As a London address, Surbiton can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.
