Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in How Green
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. If you have caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and floor edges that trap water and grime, we can put it right, on thresholds, concrete floor joints and wet room & bathroom floors alike.
For a small place like How Green, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in How Green and everywhere else we cover.

Why act early in How Green
Floor joints left open collect dirt that is hard to clean out. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean. Around How Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What you get with us
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- More than 20 years in sealant work
- A 12-month guarantee on all work

Should I try it myself first?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Surface by surface
Thresholds
Thresholds between rooms meet two floors and often a door frame. We seal them with a flexible sealant that suits both sides.
Commercial floors
Floor joint work in businesses can be planned around your hours. Out-of-hours working can be arranged.
What we’re called out for in How Green
A floor laid tight to the walls has no room to move. As it expands, the edges lift or crack, and the sealant or grout breaks.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
Managing a site like Hever Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

What floor joint sealing looks like in How Green
Floors around Kent run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For buildings such as Church of St Peter, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Letting a property close to Hever station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in How Green
Will you come out to How Green?
Yes, How Green is covered. 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.
Do you work for landlords with property near Hever station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Is it messy?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
Where you plan to paint, we do. Silicone does not take paint, so tell us your plans.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
