Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Thorncombe Street
Concrete floors in warehouses and units have joints that take heavy wear. We reseal them with a product chosen for the movement and the traffic. Common call-outs are for cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens and cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint, on wet room & bathroom floors, concrete floor joints and tiled floors.
Around Thorncombe Street, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- If someone has resealed it before
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Where the property is
- The rough size of the job

Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Thorncombe Street questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Godalming station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is Thorncombe Street within the area you cover?
Yes, Thorncombe Street is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes, from warehouses and units to offices and shops. We can plan around your opening times with out-of-hours work where needed.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. We cut out any old sealant or caulk and reseal with flexible silicone, colour-matched where it shows.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Usually it’s movement: heating drying the timber, or a filler that is too rigid. A flexible sealant stays closed as the floor moves.
Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. We cover Thorncombe Street and the rest of Surrey.
Floor joint sealing around Thorncombe Street
Floors around Surrey 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.
If you look after a building such as Godalming College, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

When to call us in Thorncombe Street
An open floor joint fills with dirt and water. In kitchens and bathrooms, mop water gets into the gap.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
If you let a flat or house near Godalming station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.
Questions to ask before you book
- What product goes in the joint
- What insurance they hold
- Is VAT in the price?
- How much experience the applicator has

Advice
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Tiles that have lifted or broken

Where we work in Thorncombe Street
- Commercial floors
- Thresholds
- Concrete floor joints
- Skirting boards
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Tiled floors
Why act early in Thorncombe Street
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Sealing them now keeps the problem at the surface. In a small place like Thorncombe Street, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
Why Thorncombe Street customers choose us
- Colour agreed with you before work begins

- Homes, businesses and hotels
See our cost guide or what customers say.
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
Silicone sealant is not made to take paint. If the joint will be painted, tell us beforehand so we use a paintable sealant.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen and are harder to clean out.
