About our floor joint sealing in Coldharbour
Every floor moves a little, so its edges need a joint that can flex. We seal skirting gaps, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints using a product that suits the floor. If you are dealing with skirting that has pulled away from the floor and cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint, we can help, whatever the surface.
Older homes in small places like Coldharbour often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Floor joint sealing around Coldharbour
Floors around Kent run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For buildings such as Parish Church of St John, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Rented homes near Hildenborough station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Feet are usually fine before mopping or wheeled traffic, and we’ll tell you both.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
FAQs for Coldharbour
Will you come out to Coldharbour?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is Coldharbour in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Coldharbour is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We will explain which colours are available.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
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.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll tell you what we are using.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
Why deal with it now?
Water that gets past a floor joint can damage the floor beneath. Sealing them now keeps the problem at the surface. Around Coldharbour, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

When to call us in Coldharbour
New floors settle once they’re in use. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so and anything rigid cracks.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
If you look after a building such as St Margaret Clitherow Catholic Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.
Questions to ask before you book
- What guarantee comes with the work
- How much experience the applicator has
- Whether they’re fully insured
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
