Floor Joint Sealing in Hoath

What happens if it’s left?
Water that gets past a floor joint can damage the floor beneath. Sealing them now keeps the problem at the surface. In a small place like Hoath, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Hoath
Floors move, and the joint where they meet a wall, skirting, threshold or another floor has to move with them. Skirting-to-floor gaps, tiled floor joints and concrete joints are all sealed with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. If you have skirting that has pulled away from the floor and floor edges that trap water and grime, we can put it right, on tiled floors, thresholds and commercial floors alike.
Around Hoath, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Hoath questions
Do you cover Hoath for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Hoath is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Do you cover smaller places like Hoath?
Yes. Hoath is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Normally it’s movement: timber drying in winter, floors settling, or caulk that can’t stretch. A flexible bead keeps up with the movement.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
We give you a cure time for each joint. Feet are generally fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels in most cases.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk is fine for dry joints that do not move, but it cracks where there’s movement or water. We use a flexible sealant for most skirting and floor joints.

What else we do in Hoath
New homes and floors in Hoath
Floors around Kent run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Community buildings like Church of the Holy Cross are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. If you let a flat or house near Herne Bay station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.
Hoath is about 3 miles south-east of Herne Bay, in Kent. Every kind of property in Hoath is covered for floor joint sealing. The work is guaranteed for a year. Hoath is one of 922 places in Kent where we work for floor joint sealing. Chelmsford is on our list too, about 40 miles from Hoath.

How the job changes by surface
Commercial floors
Washroom and kitchen floors in commercial buildings need sound edge joints. We reseal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. We rake out any grout there and reseal.
Do you need floor joint sealing in Hoath?
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. The edges pull away from the skirting, and rigid fillers crack.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Hoath Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.
Questions to ask before booking
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- How long the guarantee is
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
