About our floor joint sealing in West Preston
Good floor joints come down to the right product and clean, prepared edges. Old caulk, grout or failed sealant comes out first, then clean, back and seal the joint. If you are dealing with gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens, we can help, on commercial floors, tiled floors and skirting boards alike.
In smaller places like West Preston, new homes tend to come as small developments or single plots. The sealant around baths, showers, frames and skirtings needs to be right from the start.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
Often, yes, at the edges and along suitable lines. We remove the grout and seal the line with flexible sealant, giving the floor room to move.
Is it messy?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

Yes. We reseal concrete floor joints in commercial and industrial units. The product is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing and where.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Common problems we fix in West Preston
New floors settle once they’re in use. The edges pull away from the skirting.
Look out for any of the following:
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
For landlords with property near Angmering station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.
Before you book anyone
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
How the visit works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes for a typical job. In a smaller place like West Preston, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
Get a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll take it from there.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Use furniture pads near skirting
Don’t paint over silicone. If the joint will be painted, tell us beforehand so we use a paintable sealant.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact and the surface smoother.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

What the job involves on each surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
In a wet room, the floor-to-wall joint is a key line of defence. It’s resealed with a sanitary silicone, and we’ll tell you if the leak seems to come from elsewhere.
Skirting boards
On painted skirting, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is normally better.
Leave it or put it right?
Caulk is quick and cheap, but it cracks where the joint moves or gets wet, so the gap reappears. A flexible sealant moves with the floor. In a smaller place like West Preston, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear quote before work begins.

Joints and finishes in West Preston homes
Floors around West Sussex run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as The Parish Church of St Mary, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. If you look after a building such as Georgian Gardens Community Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
