Floor & skirting joints in Lympne, Kent
Sealing skirting-to-floor joints, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints for homes and businesses in Lympne and across Kent. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
Avoid flooding the floor when you clean. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
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.
About our floor joint sealing in Lympne
Tiled floors can crack along the grout when there’s no room for movement. Where one is needed, we rake out the grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant coloured to suit the grout. If you have perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout and failed joint filler in concrete floors, we can help, whatever the surface.
Around Lympne, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

How the job changes by surface
Concrete floor joints
Hard wheels break down the edges of open joints. A sealed joint protects the edges.
Commercial floors
Shops, offices, warehouses and units all have floor joints that need sealing. We talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
Questions from Lympne
I let a flat near Westenhanger station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Will you come out to Lympne?
Yes. Lympne is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before work begins.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. We cut out any old sealant or caulk and reseal with flexible silicone, colour-matched where it shows.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
What should I tell you?
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.
Why not just use caulk?
Caulk is fine for dry joints that don’t move, but it cracks where there’s movement or water. For most floor joints, we use a flexible sealant.
What we do, step by step
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Somewhere as small as Lympne, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
Putting new grout into a crack that keeps reappearing doesn’t last. If the floor needs to move there, the grout will crack again. Replacing that line with flexible sealant gives it somewhere to go. In a small place like Lympne, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
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, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Landlord and commercial work in Lympne
We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Joints and finishes in Lympne homes
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.
For buildings such as Church of St Stephen, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. If you let a flat or house near Westenhanger station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. If you look after a building such as Lympne Church of England Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.
