Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Charing Heath
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 cannot get in. Common call-outs are for cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens and worn sealant at door thresholds, on thresholds, commercial floors and skirting boards.
Around Charing Heath, 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.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Charing Heath and everywhere else we cover.

Common questions in Charing Heath
Is Charing Heath within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Charing station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we’re done.
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.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes. We reseal concrete floor joints in commercial and industrial units. We will talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Because caulk cracks where there’s movement or water. Skirting joints move with the floor, so we use a flexible sealant that stretches.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
We give you a cure time for each joint. Feet are generally fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels in most cases.

When it isn’t the sealant
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:

- Commercial floors
- Concrete floor joints
- Tiled floors
- Thresholds
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Skirting boards
The process
We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Somewhere as small as Charing Heath, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

What floor joint sealing looks like in Charing Heath
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.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Different surfaces, different methods
Skirting boards
If the skirting is painted, a paintable flexible sealant works well. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is normally better.
Tiled floors
Perimeter joints in tiled floors should be sealant, not grout. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.
