Your questions about floor joint sealing in Allington
Can you do floor joint sealing in Allington?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Allington is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Barming station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes. Straight cracks in grout often show where a movement joint was needed. We replace that grout with a flexible joint.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Caulk works on still, dry joints, but it splits where the joint moves or gets wet. We use a flexible sealant for most skirting and floor joints.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Floor joint sealing in Allington, done properly
Gaps along the bottom of skirting are common in new and older homes alike. Caulk tends to crack there, so we use a flexible sealant that moves with the floor. Typical jobs include rigid edge joints in tiled floors and grout cracking in a straight line across a floor, across commercial floors, wet room & bathroom floors and skirting boards.
Where new homes go up in smaller places like Allington, it’s often a small development or a single plot. The sealant around baths, showers, frames and skirtings needs to be right from the start.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

Surface by surface
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 if it’s in the right place.
Skirting boards
If the skirting is painted, a paintable flexible sealant works well. Where water is involved, silicone is the better choice.
How it works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes for a typical job. For a job in Allington, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Related advice
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
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.

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

Why deal with it now?
Regrouting a cracked line in a tiled floor rarely fixes it. The movement is still there, so the grout fails again. A flexible movement joint is the fix. Homes in smaller places like Allington can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first.

Floor joint sealing around Allington

If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St. Nicholas' Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. If you let a flat or house near Barming station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Do you need floor joint sealing in Allington?
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. The edges pull away from the skirting.
People usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
Managing a site like Allington Primary School? Then entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.
