About our floor joint sealing in Yaverland
Gaps along the bottom of skirting are common in new and older homes alike. Decorators’ caulk normally cracks where there’s movement, so we use a flexible sealant that moves with the floor. If you are dealing with failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels and caulk that has cracked where the floor moves, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Yaverland, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Floor joint sealing around Yaverland
Floors around the Isle of Wight run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For landlords with property near Brading station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. Managing a site like The Bay Church of England School? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

When it is not the sealant
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.
Concrete floor joints
Sawn joints in concrete floors control where it cracks. We reseal them with a floor-joint product suited to the traffic.

Questions from Yaverland
Can you do floor joint sealing in Yaverland?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Yaverland is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Will you come out to Yaverland?
Yes. Yaverland is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we will put it right.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. Where a floor meets a bath panel, kitchen plinth or skirting in a wet area, we use a flexible silicone so water can’t get into the gap.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
That depends on the amount of work, but most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. We’ll tell you when we quote.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
Do you seal warehouse floor joints?
Yes. Old filler is cleaned out and the joint resealed with a floor-joint product. Let us know about the traffic when you ask for a quote.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Only on dry joints that do not move. Caulk cracks as the floor moves and the gap reopens. A flexible sealant lasts longer there.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Yaverland
When a tiled floor has no movement joints, the grout takes the strain. Cracks often run straight along a line of joints, where a flexible joint should have been.
People usually contact us when they notice one of these:
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
For buildings such as St John the Baptist Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- How long to leave it before use
Leave it or put it right?
An open concrete floor joint gets wider every time something heavy crosses it. A sealed joint supports the edges. In a small place like Yaverland, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
