How we handle floor joint sealing in Blean
Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone. Common call-outs are for grout cracking in a straight line across a floor and open joints around bathroom floor edges, across concrete floor joints, thresholds and commercial floors.
Older homes in small places like Blean often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Blean and everywhere else we cover.

Floor joint sealing in Blean: local notes
Floors around Kent run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Blean Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. For buildings such as Church of St Cosmus and St Damian, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor

Blean: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Canterbury West station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Blean in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Blean is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
It depends on the product and the conditions. We give you the times for walking, cleaning and traffic when we finish so you can plan.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk is fine for dry joints that do not move, but it cracks where there’s movement or water. For most floor joints, we use a flexible sealant.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes, including warehouses, units, shops and offices. We can plan around your opening times, and out-of-hours work can be arranged.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The product needed can limit the range.
Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
How the visit works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it usually takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere as small as Blean, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us if parking is tricky

What the job involves on each surface
Skirting boards
On painted skirting, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is usually better.
Concrete floor joints
Open concrete joints chip at the edges when wheels cross them. Sealing them supports the edges.
