About our floor joint sealing in Challock
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side in a colour to suit. We are often asked to deal with gaps at thresholds between rooms and gaps between floors and kitchen plinths, across commercial floors, concrete floor joints and wet room & bathroom floors.
Around Challock, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Floor joint sealing around Challock
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. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you let a flat or house near Wye station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. If you look after a building such as Challock Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Cosmas and St Damian, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Advice
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
Have a look at the joints once the heating season is over. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up before they spread.
A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and the edges sound.

What the job involves on each surface
Skirting boards
If the skirting is painted, a paintable flexible sealant works well. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is normally better.
Concrete floor joints
Hard wheels break down the edges of open joints. A sealed joint protects the edges.
