Floor joint sealing in Upperton
Every floor moves a little, so its edges need a joint that can flex. Skirting-to-floor gaps, tiled floor joints and concrete joints are all sealed with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. We work on commercial floors, wet room & bathroom floors and tiled floors, and common reasons people get in touch are open joints that fill with dirt and worn sealant at door thresholds.
For a small place like Upperton, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Surface by surface
Skirting boards
Skirting-to-floor joints are a regular job for us. The old caulk is removed first so the bead sits on a clean surface.
Commercial floors
Commercial washrooms and kitchens have floor joints that get wet constantly. We reseal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
Common questions in Upperton
Is Upperton in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Upperton is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Is floor joint sealing in Upperton guaranteed?
All our work, in Upperton and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
In many cases, yes. We replace the grout along a suitable line with flexible sealant. Loose or cracked tiles need a tiler first.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Why not just use caulk?
Only on dry joints that don’t move. Caulk cracks as the floor moves, so the gap comes back. A flexible sealant lasts longer there.
What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Somewhere like Upperton needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.
Getting ready for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

What we are called out for in Upperton
New floors settle once they’re in use. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as The Parish Church of All Hallows, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
