The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Pearson's Green, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.

How we handle floor joint sealing in Pearson's Green
Gaps along the bottom of skirting are common in new and older homes alike. Decorators’ caulk generally cracks where there’s movement, so we close it with a flexible sealant instead. Typical jobs include concrete floor joints that have broken down and dirt and water collecting in open floor joints, across thresholds, concrete floor joints and commercial floors.
Around Pearson's Green, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Pearson's Green
Do you cover smaller places like Pearson's Green?
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.
Can you do floor joint sealing in Pearson's Green?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Pearson's Green is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
In many cases, yes. Where a floor needs one, we rake out grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant coloured to suit. If tiles are loose, that needs fixing first.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Surface by surface
Concrete floor joints
Sawn joints in concrete floors control where it cracks. We reseal them with a floor-joint product suited to the traffic.
Commercial floors
Commercial washrooms and kitchens have floor joints that get wet constantly. We reseal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
Floor joint sealing in Pearson's Green: local notes
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.
Managing a site like Mascalls School? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
Avoid flooding the floor when you clean. Keeping the edges drier helps the sealant last longer.
A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and the edges sound.
Common problems we fix in Pearson's Green
When a tiled floor has no movement joints, the grout takes the strain. Cracks often run straight along a line of joints, showing where a movement joint was needed.
People normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
Letting a property close to Paddock Wood station? Then open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Why it’s worth doing now in Pearson's Green
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Sealing them now keeps the problem at the surface. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Pearson's Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
