Crockenhill questions
Will you come out to Crockenhill?
Yes. Crockenhill is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is Crockenhill in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Crockenhill is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. Wet-area floor joints are sealed with a flexible, water-resistant silicone.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Not where the floor moves or gets wet. Caulk cracks as the floor moves. A flexible sealant lasts longer there.
Is there any odour?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
About our floor joint sealing in Crockenhill
Large tiled floors, and those over underfloor heating, often need movement joints. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant. Typical jobs include caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and concrete floor joints that have broken down, on wet room & bathroom floors, skirting boards and tiled floors.
Work in a small place like Crockenhill just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. In a small place like Crockenhill, access is normally the main thing to plan. 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.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor and tooled.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
How to get a quote
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where. Photos by email help us understand the job.

- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
- Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Concrete floor joints
- Thresholds
- Skirting boards
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Tiled floors

Floor joint sealing around Crockenhill
Across Kent, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Letting a property close to Swanley station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. Managing a site like Crockenhill Primary School? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

Common problems we fix in Crockenhill
A floor laid tight to the walls has no room to move. As it expands, the edges lift or crack and joints fail.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of All Souls, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
Questions to ask before you book
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Whether VAT is included
- How the colour is chosen
What happens if it’s left?
Putting new grout into a crack that keeps reappearing does not last. The movement is still there, so the grout fails again. A flexible movement joint is the fix. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Crockenhill, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Different surfaces, different methods
Skirting boards
Skirting gaps are one of the most common floor joints we seal. We take out any cracked caulk before sealing so the bead sits on a clean surface.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Wet room floors rely on sound joints at the walls. It’s resealed with a sanitary silicone.
