For landlords and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.
About our floor joint sealing in West Brompton
Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. We seal them with a flexible, water-resistant sealant and stops dirt collecting. We work on commercial floors, wet room & bathroom floors and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are failed joint filler in concrete floors and open joints that fill with dirt.
New flats are going up across London, many of them in larger developments. Snagging there often goes through the developer or managing agent, and failed shower seals, open skirting joints and gaps at thresholds are typical.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in West Brompton and across Greater London.

Different surfaces, different methods
Concrete floor joints
Concrete floors have sawn or formed joints to control cracking. We reseal them with a floor-joint product suited to the traffic.
Tiled floors
When grout cracks along a straight line, the floor is telling you it needs to move. That line is converted to a flexible joint if it’s in the right place.
Floor joint sealing in West Brompton: local notes
Across Greater London, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same 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 snagging may go through the developer or managing agent.
Schools such as St Cuthbert with St Matthias CofE Primary School are buildings too, and floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. Letting a property close to West Brompton station? Then open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
Lift furniture rather than sliding it over sealed joints. Sharp edges can cut the sealant.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact.

Do you need floor joint sealing in West Brompton?
New floors settle once they’re in use. The edges pull away from the skirting and anything rigid cracks.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Luke, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Common questions in West Brompton
Do you work for landlords with property near West Brompton station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover West Brompton for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and West Brompton is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
Often, yes. We replace the grout along a suitable line with flexible sealant in a matching colour. Loose or cracked tiles need a tiler first.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
You’ll get the times before we go. It depends on the sealant, and light foot traffic is generally fine before wet cleaning or wheels.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back 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.
Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
