About our floor joint sealing in Brabourne Lees
In kitchens and bathrooms, the joint where the floor meets a bath panel, plinth or skirting takes mop water every day. A flexible silicone seal keeps it out so water and dirt can’t get in. We work on skirting boards, concrete floor joints and thresholds, and people most often call us about worn sealant at door thresholds and concrete floor joints that have broken down.
Older homes in small places like Brabourne Lees often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Why deal with it now?
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. Around Brabourne Lees, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
Avoid flooding the floor when you clean. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact.

DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
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, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
How it works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes in most cases. Somewhere as small as Brabourne Lees, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor and tooled.
- We check the joints and explain the aftercare.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Brabourne Lees questions
Is Brabourne Lees in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Brabourne Lees is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Brabourne Lees?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you use a paintable sealant?
On joints you want to paint, yes. Silicone doesn’t take paint.
Where do you work from?
We are a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything is not right with the work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Usually it’s movement: timber drying in winter, floors settling, or caulk that can’t stretch. A flexible sealant stays closed as the floor moves.
How the job changes by surface
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.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A neat silicone joint keeps it out.
What floor joint sealing looks like in Brabourne Lees
Across Kent, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you look after a building such as Smeeth Community Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. For buildings such as Church of St Mary, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Letting a property close to Westenhanger station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.
