Floor joint sealing in Hunton
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. We work on commercial floors, thresholds and concrete floor joints, and the jobs we see most are failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels and failed joint filler in concrete floors.
For a small place like Hunton, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

How it works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. In a small place like Hunton, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and tooled.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

What floor joint sealing looks like in Hunton
Floors around Kent run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Schools such as Hunton Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. Rented homes near Yalding station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

What we’re called out for in Hunton
New floors settle once they’re in use. The edges pull away from the skirting and anything rigid cracks.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
Community buildings like St Mary's Church are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Common questions in Hunton
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Yalding station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Hunton?
Yes, Hunton is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
How long will you be here?
Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Normally it’s movement: heating drying the timber, or a filler that is too rigid. A flexible sealant stays closed as the floor moves.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. These joints get wet every time the floor is cleaned, so a flexible silicone is the right choice.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
Check the joints after the first winter. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up early on.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
