Why act early in Hoo St Werburgh
Dirt builds up in open joints. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean. Homes in smaller places like Hoo St Werburgh can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins.

Floor joint sealing in Hoo St Werburgh, done properly
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We use a flexible product that suits both floors so the joint stays neat. Common call-outs are for tiled floors with no room to move and threshold joints that have opened or worn, on skirting boards, commercial floors and concrete floor joints.
If you’ve bought a new home in or near Hoo St Werburgh, the first year or two is a good time to check the sealant. Gaps at skirtings, shower seals pulling away and missing mastic around frames are common snags.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Joints and finishes in Hoo St Werburgh homes
Floors around Medway 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 St Werburgh are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. For landlords with property near Gillingham (Kent) station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

How the job changes by surface
Concrete floor joints
Sawn joints in concrete floors control where it cracks. We reseal them with a floor-joint product suited to the traffic.
Skirting boards
Skirting gaps are one of the most common floor joints we seal. We take out any cracked caulk before sealing.
How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
Do not paint over silicone. If you plan to paint, we’ll use a paintable product.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. Adding a movement joint early can stop cracks spreading to the tiles.
DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
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 does not work out, we can still put it right.

Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?

Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.

Advice
Do you need floor joint sealing in Hoo St Werburgh?
Grout is rigid, so a tiled floor with nowhere to move cracks along a grout line. Cracks often run straight along a line of joints, where a flexible joint should have been.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
Schools such as Hoo St Werburgh Primary School and Marlborough Centre are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.
