A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Floor joint sealing in South Green, done properly
In kitchens and bathrooms, the joint where the floor meets a bath panel, plinth or skirting takes mop water every day. We seal them with a flexible, water-resistant sealant so water and dirt cannot get in. We’re often asked to deal with gaps at thresholds between rooms and gaps opening between the floor and skirting, across commercial floors, concrete floor joints and skirting boards.
Around South 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.

Floor joint sealing in South 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. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Letting a property close to Newington station? Then open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Mary Magdalene Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Why act early in South Green

Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere as small as South Green, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Cone off the area if needed.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
Surface by surface
Tiled floors
Tiled floors need movement joints at edges and across large areas. We replace grout with flexible sealant along the right lines.
Skirting boards
On painted skirting, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Where water is involved, silicone is the better choice.
Common questions in South Green
Do you cover smaller places like South Green?
Yes, South Green is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you work for landlords with property near Newington station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, 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 I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Floors shrink and settle, especially in the first year or two and through the heating season pulls the skirting and floor apart. Caulk tends to crack; a flexible sealant does not.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, with pictures by email if possible. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
