The process
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first.

If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Floor joint sealing in Singlewell or Ifield
Tiled floors can crack along the grout when there’s no room for movement. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant in a matching colour. If you have open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards and open joints around bathroom floor edges, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Around Singlewell or Ifield, 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 our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Singlewell or Ifield
Floors around Kent run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
If you let a flat or house near Meopham station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. Community buildings like Church of St Margaret are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. If you look after a building such as Singlewell Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Thresholds between rooms meet two floors and often a door frame. A flexible sealant suits both floor finishes.
Questions from Singlewell or Ifield
Is Singlewell or Ifield within the area you cover?
Yes, Singlewell or Ifield is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Meopham station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes. Old filler is cleaned out and the joint resealed with a floor-joint product. Tell us what runs over the floor and we will quote.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Singlewell or Ifield.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
Often, yes, where it suits the floor. The grout is raked out and replaced with a flexible sealant in a colour to suit so the floor can move.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
We give you a cure time for each joint. Feet are normally fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels in most cases.

- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler

What affects the quote in Singlewell or Ifield
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- The number of rooms or windows
- The number and length of the joints
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Which sealant suits the joint
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Whether it has been sealed before
- How we’d reach the joints
- The rough size of the job
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. Adding a movement joint early can stop cracks spreading to the tiles.
DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
