About our floor joint sealing in Maypole
Every floor moves a little, so its edges need a joint that can flex. Skirting-to-floor gaps, tiled floor joints and concrete joints are all sealed using a product that suits the floor. We work on tiled floors, skirting boards and thresholds, and people most often call us about skirting that has pulled away from the floor and failed joint filler in concrete floors.
Work in a small place like Maypole just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Cone off the area if needed.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Maypole
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can be quoted together, and we are fully insured.
Leave it or put it right?
Floor joints left open collect dirt that’s hard to clean out and makes the floor look worn. A neat sealed joint is easier to clean. Around Maypole, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
What you get with us
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
- You choose the colour before work begins

What floor joint sealing looks like in Maypole
Floors around Kent run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Community buildings like Church of the Holy Cross are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. For landlords with property near Herne Bay station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Common questions in Maypole
Is Maypole in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Maypole is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you work for landlords with property near Herne Bay station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes, at the edges and along suitable lines. We remove the grout and seal the line with flexible sealant, giving the floor room to move.
Why not just use caulk?
Not where the floor moves or gets wet. It splits once the floor shifts. A flexible sealant lasts longer there.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Can you match the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.
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.

How the job changes by surface
Concrete floor joints
We clean concrete joints out thoroughly before sealing first. We fit backing where needed.
Tiled floors
A crack running along a grout line is often a sign of a missing movement joint. We rake out that line and seal it.

- Any working-time requirements on site

The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start.
Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Where the property is
- What’s wrong with the joints now

What we are called out for in Maypole
Water and dirt collect in open floor joints. In wet areas, water runs into the gap at every clean and can reach the subfloor.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
Schools such as Hoath Primary School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- Whether you can choose the colour
- How much experience the applicator has
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
