About our floor joint sealing in Ightham
In kitchens and bathrooms, the joint where the floor meets a bath panel, plinth or skirting takes mop water every day. A flexible silicone seal keeps it out so water and dirt can’t get in. We’re often asked to deal with concrete floor joints that have broken down and gaps between floors and kitchen plinths, across commercial floors, skirting boards and concrete floor joints.
Somewhere as small as Ightham, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

How the job changes by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floors meet baths, trays, panels and skirting. We seal them with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Commercial floors
Commercial washrooms and kitchens have floor joints that get wet constantly. We reseal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
When something else is needed
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Movement too big for a sealant joint
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Leaks from a failed tanking system
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Tiled floors
- Commercial floors
- Concrete floor joints
- Skirting boards
- Thresholds
- Wet room & bathroom floors
When to call us in Ightham
When a tiled floor has no movement joints, the grout takes the strain. You’ll see a crack running along the grout, showing where a movement joint was needed.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Tiled floors with no room to move
If you look after a building such as Ightham Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.
Questions to ask before booking
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How long the guarantee is
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What product goes in the joint
Questions from Ightham
Do you cover Ightham for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Ightham is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
I let a flat near Borough Green & Wrotham station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
It depends on the product and the conditions. Before we leave, we tell you when it can be walked on, mopped and driven over.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. Where a floor meets a bath panel, kitchen plinth or skirting in a wet area, we use a flexible silicone.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything is not right with the work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.

For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
What floor joint sealing looks like in Ightham
Floors around Kent run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Community buildings like Church of St Peter are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Letting a property close to Borough Green & Wrotham station? Then open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. In a small place like Ightham, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Advice
Why act early in Ightham
Waiting until the next redecoration can mean a winter of draughts and dirt in the gaps. It’s a quick job to seal them now. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Ightham, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
