About our floor joint sealing in Bexley Riverside
Floors move, and the joint where they meet a wall, skirting, threshold or another floor has to move with them. Skirting-to-floor gaps, tiled floor joints and concrete joints are all sealed with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. If you have perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout and cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint, we can help, on thresholds, tiled floors and concrete floor joints alike.
Shops, offices and commercial units across London have hard-wearing floors with movement joints that need resealing as they wear, and new homes need their plot mastic finished properly before handover, in Bexley Riverside and beyond.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Bexley Riverside and everywhere else we cover.

Do you need floor joint sealing in Bexley Riverside?
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
If you look after a building such as Normandy Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Leave it or put it right?
An open concrete floor joint gets wider every time something heavy crosses it. Resealing it early protects the edges before they need a bigger repair. In a flat in Bexley Riverside, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.

The process
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint and we leave things clean and tidy. In a London area like Bexley Riverside, the main things to plan are parking and access: let us know about parking, the floor we will be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Getting ready for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

How do I get a quote for floor joint sealing in Bexley Riverside?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before work begins.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
You will get the times before we go. It depends on the sealant, and light foot traffic is generally fine before wet cleaning or wheels.
How long does the job take?
As a guide, most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. Where a floor meets a bath panel, kitchen plinth or skirting in a wet area, we use a flexible silicone.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes, including warehouses, units, shops and offices. Work can be planned around your hours with out-of-hours work where needed.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Joints and finishes in Bexley Riverside homes
Across Greater London, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal. Many of London’s new homes are flats in bigger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent.
Bexley Riverside is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Letting a property close to Barnehurst station? Then open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Can I do it myself?

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.
Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Do not paint over silicone
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
Check the joints after the first winter. If anything has opened, it’s easy to reseal early on.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
Different surfaces, different methods
Commercial floors
Commercial washrooms and kitchens have floor joints that get wet constantly. We reseal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
Concrete floor joints
Concrete floors have sawn or formed joints to control cracking. We reseal them with a floor-joint product suited to the traffic.
