Floor joint sealing in World's End
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is normally the better choice. If you have threshold joints that have opened or worn and perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Homes around World's End range from older cottages to newer houses, and their floors range just as widely, each moving in its own way. The sealant at skirtings and thresholds has to suit the floor it meets.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

World's End questions
I let a flat near Wivelsfield station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is World's End within the area you cover?
Yes. World's End is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Why not just use caulk?
Caulk can’t cope with movement or water. Skirting joints move with the floor, so a flexible sealant suits them better.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
We’ll tell you before we leave. That depends on the product, and light foot traffic is normally fine before wet cleaning or wheels.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. Floor edges in bathrooms and kitchens get wet at every clean, so we seal them with silicone suited to wet areas.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we will agree it with you first.
How the visit works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work generally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. In a smaller place like World's End, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Move anything stored near the joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Related advice
What the job involves on each surface
Commercial floors
Shops, offices, warehouses and units all have floor joints that need sealing. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Tiled floors
A crack running along a grout line is often a sign of a missing movement joint. We rake out that line and seal it.
Why it’s worth doing now in World's End
The right product depends on the floor and the traffic: flexible sealant for skirting and tiles, silicone in wet areas, and floor-joint products for concrete. Getting that choice wrong is a common reason joints fail. In a smaller place like World's End, 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.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

Joints and finishes in World's End 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. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you look after a building such as Manor Field Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. Letting a property close to Wivelsfield station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. Community buildings like St Andrew's Church are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
Check the joints after the first winter. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up early on.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. Adding a movement joint early can stop cracks spreading to the tiles.
