What floor joint sealing looks like in Hoaden
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.
Letting a property close to Minster station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Elmstone Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

How we handle floor joint sealing in Hoaden
Large tiled floors, and those over underfloor heating, often need movement joints. Where one is needed, we rake out the grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant in a matching colour. If you are dealing with gaps at thresholds between rooms and perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout, we can put it right, on skirting boards, wet room & bathroom floors and commercial floors alike.
Around Hoaden, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, 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.

The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Hoaden, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Concrete floor joints
Open concrete joints chip at the edges when wheels cross them. A sealed joint protects the edges and keeps dirt out.
Thresholds
Thresholds between rooms meet two floors and often a door frame. We seal them with a flexible sealant that suits both sides.
Quotes for floor joint sealing in Hoaden
There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number of rooms or windows
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The address or postcode of the job
- The type of property
Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

What else we do in Hoaden
What we’re called out for in Hoaden
An open floor joint fills with dirt and water. In kitchens and bathrooms, mop water gets into the gap and can reach the subfloor.
Look out for any of the following:
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
Schools such as Ash Cartwright and Kelsey Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Which colour the sealant will be
- Whether they’re fully insured
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Do not paint over silicone
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
Have a look at the joints once the heating season is over. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up before they spread.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Sealing them early protects the edges and the floor safer.
When it is not the sealant
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Concrete repairs beyond the joint
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
- Movement too big for a sealant joint

Hoaden: your questions answered
Is Hoaden within the area you cover?
Yes. Hoaden is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is Hoaden in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Hoaden is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
That varies with the sealant and the room. Before we leave, we tell you when it can be walked on, mopped and driven over so there’s no guesswork.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
How long will you be here?
Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. Floor edges in bathrooms and kitchens get wet at every clean, so we seal them with silicone suited to wet areas.
