What happens if it’s left?
An open concrete floor joint gets wider every time something heavy crosses it. A sealed joint supports the edges before they need a bigger repair. In a small place like Claygate Cross, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
Why us?
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

Floor joint sealing in Claygate Cross: local notes

For buildings such as The Church of the Good Shepherd, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Letting a property close to Borough Green & Wrotham station? Then a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

Related advice
When to call us in Claygate Cross
New floors settle once they’re in use. The edges pull away from the skirting, and rigid fillers crack.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
Schools such as Borough Green Primary School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Different surfaces, different methods
Commercial floors
Floor joint work in businesses can be planned around your hours. Out-of-hours working can be arranged if the floor is busy.
Thresholds
Two different floors meeting at a threshold move differently. A flexible sealant bridges them.
What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Structural movement or subsidence
- Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Do not paint over silicone
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Cone off the area if needed.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further.
How we quote for floor joint sealing
There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The product the joint needs
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Working hours on commercial sites
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
Helping us quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- How we’d reach the joints
- Whether it has been sealed before
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that is easier. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll talk you through the work.
