How we quote for floor joint sealing
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How much there is to do
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Any working-time requirements on site
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

About our floor joint sealing in West Kensington
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone because it handles water. If you’re dealing with open joints that fill with dirt and concrete floor joints that have broken down, we can help.
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 West Kensington as anywhere.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Common problems we fix in West Kensington
Water and dirt collect in open floor joints. In kitchens and bathrooms, mop water gets into the gap and behind skirting and plinths.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
Community buildings like St Cuthbert's are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

How the visit works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint in most cases. In West Kensington, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and tooled.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice
Questions from West Kensington
Can you do floor joint sealing in West Kensington?
Yes, West Kensington is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Is parking a problem for a job in West Kensington?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
Why not just use caulk?
Not where the floor moves or gets wet. It splits once the floor shifts and the gap reopens. A flexible sealant is the better choice.
What should I tell you?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Joints and finishes in West Kensington homes
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent. 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. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
West Kensington is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Fulham Boys School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Why it’s worth doing now in West Kensington
Putting new grout into a crack that keeps reappearing does not last. The movement is still there, so the grout fails again. A flexible movement joint is the fix. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and once it shows in West Kensington, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
