How we handle floor joint sealing in Key's Green
Thresholds are where two floors, or a floor and a door, meet. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side so the joint stays neat. We work on skirting boards, tiled floors and wet room & bathroom floors, and common reasons people get in touch are caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant.
Somewhere as small as Key's Green, 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.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Key's Green as everywhere else we work.

The process
We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere as small as Key's Green, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Key's Green: your questions answered
I let a flat near Frant station. Can you help?
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 send you a clear quote.
Is Key's Green within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few photos.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
A typical job takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. These joints get wet every time the floor is cleaned, so a flexible silicone is the right choice.

What we’re called out for in Key's Green
Water and dirt collect in open floor joints. In wet areas, water runs into the gap at every clean.
The most common problems we see are:
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
Rented homes near Frant station change hands often, and a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Key's Green
Across Kent, 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.
Community buildings like Chapel Of Ease Of St Luke are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

- Thresholds
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Commercial floors
- Tiled floors
- Concrete floor joints
- Skirting boards
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- 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 before they spread.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and the edges sound.
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.
Tiled floors
Large or heated tiled floors need room to move. Where needed, a line of grout is replaced with flexible sealant in a matching colour.
Can I do it myself?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
