Is Kent Street in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Kent Street is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?

What information do you need?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Do you seal warehouse floor joints?
Yes. Concrete floor joints in warehouses and units are part of our work. We’ll talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Floor joint sealing in Kent Street, done properly
Across Kent Street, we seal floor and skirting joints in homes and businesses. Each job starts with looking at the floor and the gap, since that decides which sealant suits. Typical jobs include open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards and floor edges that trap water and grime, across skirting boards, tiled floors and commercial floors.
Older homes in small places like Kent Street often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

Floor joint sealing in Kent Street: local notes
Across West Sussex, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
For jobs in and around Kent Street, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish. In and around Kent Street, as anywhere, good floor joint sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What affects the cost of floor joint sealing
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The amount of work
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Mould in or behind the old joints
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The rough size of the job
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Where the property is
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we will explain what’s involved.
How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Do not paint over silicone
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it until it’s ready.
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.
What we do, step by step
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like Kent Street needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
How to prepare

Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What happens if it’s left?
Left open, concrete joints break down under traffic. A sealed joint supports the edges before they need a bigger repair. Around Kent Street, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
What you get with us

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 to keep water out of the edges.
Thresholds
Where a tiled floor meets timber or carpet, the joint takes movement from both sides. A flexible sealant bridges them.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
