Surface by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
In a wet room, the floor-to-wall joint is a key line of defence. We reseal it with a flexible silicone suited to wet areas.
Skirting boards
Skirting gaps are one of the most common floor joints we seal. We take out any cracked caulk before sealing.
Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Skeete
Thresholds are where two floors, or a floor and a door, meet. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side. We work on concrete floor joints, tiled floors and thresholds, and people most often call us about cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint and dirt and water collecting in open floor joints.
In a village or hamlet like Skeete, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What sealant work cannot fix
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:

- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Floor joint sealing around Skeete
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’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you look after a building such as Stowting Church of England Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Skeete questions
Can you do floor joint sealing in Skeete?
Yes, Skeete is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you work for landlords with property near Westenhanger station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk can’t cope with movement or water. Skirting joints move with the floor, so we use a flexible sealant that stretches.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location, with photos by email if possible. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do you need floor joint sealing in Skeete?
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.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
For landlords with property near Westenhanger station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

The process
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Somewhere as small as Skeete, access is often the only tricky part. 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.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Clear the area around the work
