About our floor joint sealing in Rhodes Minnis
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side. If you’re dealing with concrete floor joints that have broken down and caulk that has cracked where the floor moves, we can put it right, on wet room & bathroom floors, thresholds and commercial floors alike.
Older homes in small places like Rhodes Minnis often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

What we do, step by step
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on. Expect the work to take a morning or an afternoon for most homes, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In a small place like Rhodes Minnis, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Why act early in Rhodes Minnis
Caulk is quick and cheap, but it cracks where the joint moves or gets wet, but the movement soon cracks it. A flexible sealant stretches instead, so the joint stays closed. Older cottages and farmhouses around Rhodes Minnis can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, 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’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Questions from Rhodes Minnis
Do you cover smaller places like Rhodes Minnis?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you cover Rhodes Minnis for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Rhodes Minnis is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Can you match the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before any work starts.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. Floor edges in bathrooms and kitchens get wet at every clean, so a flexible silicone is the right choice.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
On joints you want to paint, yes. Silicone does not take paint.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Where do you work from?
We’re a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking like caulk.
How the job changes by surface
Thresholds
Threshold joints get a lot of feet, so we choose a hard-wearing, flexible product.
Concrete floor joints
Old filler, dust and debris are cleaned out of the joint, vacuuming them clean. We fit backing where needed.
What else we do in Rhodes Minnis
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
