Leave it or put it right?
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. Sealing them now is a short job. In a small place like Tisman's Common, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins.
What you get with us
- More than 20 years in sealant work
- Tidy, careful work
- Full insurance on every job
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows

Floor joint sealing in Tisman's Common, done properly
Tiled floors can crack along the grout when there’s no room for movement. Where one is needed, we rake out the grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant coloured to suit the grout. We work on skirting boards, wet room & bathroom floors and tiled floors, and common reasons people get in touch are concrete floor joints that have broken down and skirting that has pulled away from the floor.
Older homes in small places like Tisman's Common often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Honest limits
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor
- Large cracks that need a surveyor
- A tiled floor that needs relaying

Do you need floor joint sealing in Tisman's Common?
Caulk is the usual filler for skirting. In a joint that moves or gets wet, it splits, which is why so many skirting joints look broken.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Tiled floors with no room to move
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Pennthorpe School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Surface by surface
Skirting boards
If the skirting is painted, a paintable flexible sealant works well. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is generally better.
Tiled floors
When grout cracks along a straight line, the floor is telling you it needs to move. We rake out that line and seal it where it suits the floor.

How it works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes for a typical job. In a small place like Tisman's Common, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Common questions in Tisman's Common
What guarantee comes with floor joint sealing in Tisman's Common?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Can you do floor joint sealing in Tisman's Common?
Yes, Tisman's Common is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes. We replace the grout along a suitable line with flexible sealant coloured to suit. Loose or cracked tiles need a tiler first.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours for many products, and we will agree it with you first.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
We will tell you before we leave. That depends on the product, and light foot traffic is generally fine before wet cleaning or wheels.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.

Floor joint sealing in Tisman's Common: local notes
Floors around West Sussex run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St John the Baptist, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
