DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
About our floor joint sealing in Yapton
In commercial and industrial units, concrete floor joints take a hammering from wheels and traffic. Each is resealed with a floor-joint product suited to what runs over it. Typical jobs include gaps opening between the floor and skirting and gaps at thresholds between rooms, on tiled floors, wet room & bathroom floors and skirting boards.
In smaller places like Yapton, new homes tend to come as small developments or single plots. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly from day one.
All our work comes with our 12-month guarantee.

When to call us in Yapton
Concrete floor joints break down when traffic runs over open or failed joints. Hard wheels damage the joint edges until the joint widens.
Look out for any of the following:
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Tiled floors with no room to move
Schools such as Yapton CE Primary School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Keep dirt out of the joints
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Keeping the edges drier helps the sealant last longer.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further and are harder to clean out.
Yapton: your questions answered
Is Yapton within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work for landlords with property near Barnham station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything is not right with the work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
Where the skirting will be painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Silicone isn’t made to be painted, so it’s kept for wet areas and unpainted joints.
How much does floor joint sealing cost in Yapton?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
We give you a cure time for each joint. Light use comes first, cleaning and heavy traffic later in most cases.
Will it make a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Yapton, along with the rest of our area.
Landlord and commercial work in Yapton
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
If you manage several properties in or around Yapton, several properties can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
How we quote for floor joint sealing
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Any mould that needs treating
- The product the joint needs
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The size of the job
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.
Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The problem you’ve noticed
- A few photos by email, if you can
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
What sealant work can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Skirting boards
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Concrete floor joints
- Commercial floors
- Thresholds
- Tiled floors
How it works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. The work usually takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. In a smaller place like Yapton, 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.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention any parking rules near the property
