Floor joint sealing in Sandling, done properly
Concrete floors in warehouses and units have joints that take heavy wear. Each is resealed with a floor-joint product suited to what runs over it. We work on skirting boards, tiled floors and concrete floor joints, and the jobs we see most are worn sealant at door thresholds and failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels.
Older homes in small places like Sandling often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What happens if it’s left?
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. Sealing them now is a short job. Around Sandling, older homes often have timber in their 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. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Do not paint over silicone
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Look at floor joints each spring
Check the joints after the first winter. If anything has opened, it’s easy to reseal early on.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. A sound seal stops that happening.
New homes and floors in Sandling
Across Kent, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For landlords with property near Sandling station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. If you look after a building such as Brockhill Park Performing Arts College, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

When to call us in Sandling
A floor laid tight to the walls has no room to move. As it expands, the edges lift or crack and joints fail.
Look out for any of the following:
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Peter and St Paul, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.

Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?

What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. These joints get wet every time the floor is cleaned, so a flexible silicone is the right choice.
When can I walk on the floor?
It depends on the product and the conditions. Before we leave, we tell you when it can be walked on, mopped and driven over so there’s no guesswork.
