About our floor joint sealing in Lydd
We seal floor joints in homes, offices and commercial buildings across Lydd. Each job starts with looking at the floor and the gap, since that decides which sealant suits. If you are dealing with tiled floors with no room to move and rigid edge joints in tiled floors, we can help.
Homes around Lydd range from older cottages to newer houses, and their floors range just as widely, each moving in its own way. The sealant at skirtings and thresholds has to suit the floor it meets.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Why it’s worth doing now in Lydd
Regrouting a cracked line in a tiled floor rarely fixes it. If the floor needs to move there, the grout will crack again. Replacing that line with flexible sealant gives it somewhere to go. In an older home around Lydd, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

Questions from Lydd
Do you cover Lydd for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Lydd is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is there a guarantee on floor joint sealing in Lydd?
All our work, in Lydd and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk works on still, dry joints, but it splits where the joint moves or gets wet. For most floor joints, we use a flexible sealant.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
A typical job takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
When can I walk on the floor?
We will tell you before we leave. It depends on the sealant, and light foot traffic is generally fine before wet cleaning or wheels.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient.
What happens on the day
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. A visit to Lydd is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Preparing for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
Getting a quote
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you’re ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Floor joint sealing around Lydd
Floors around Kent run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Community buildings like All Saints Church are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. If you look after a building such as Lydd Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Surface by surface
Thresholds
Threshold joints get a lot of feet, so we choose a hard-wearing, flexible product and tool it flush.
Skirting boards
If the skirting is painted, a paintable flexible sealant works well. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is usually better.

DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
