Floor joint sealing in Oad Street
Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. A flexible silicone seal keeps it out so water and dirt can’t get in. We are often asked to deal with tiled floors with no room to move and open joints around bathroom floor edges, across skirting boards, tiled floors and commercial floors.
Around Oad Street, 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.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Oad Street questions
Do you cover smaller places like Oad Street?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
I let a flat near Newington station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, always. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you’ll get one quote.
The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere like Oad Street needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.
How to prepare
- Mention any tricky access
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Why it’s worth doing now in Oad Street
Putting new grout into a crack that keeps reappearing doesn’t last. The movement is still there, so the grout fails again. A flexible movement joint is the fix. In a small place like Oad Street, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
Why Oad Street customers choose us
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
- You choose the colour before work begins
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
What affects the quote in Oad Street
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether the work is at height
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What to tell us for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- How we’d reach the joints
For a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the location and a short description of the problem. We will give you a clear price before any work starts.
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
Do not paint over silicone. If you plan to paint, we’ll use a paintable product.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Sealing them early protects the edges and the surface smoother.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage several properties in or around Oad Street, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will quote.
DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
New homes and floors in Oad Street
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. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you look after a building such as Borden Church of England Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. Community buildings like Church of St Peter and St Paul are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Rented homes near Newington station change hands often, and a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.
