South Street: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Meopham station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is South Street within the area you cover?
Yes, South Street is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Where are you based?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes. Where a floor needs one, we rake out grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant. Loose or cracked tiles need a tiler first.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Caulk is fine for dry joints that do not move, but it cracks where there’s movement or water. For most floor joints, we use a flexible sealant.

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- A tiled floor that needs relaying

- Structural movement or subsidence

For landlords and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Why act early in South Street
Filling a skirting gap with caulk looks fine at first, so the gap reappears. A flexible sealant stretches instead and keeps the joint sealed. Older cottages and farmhouses around South Street can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into 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
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere as small as South Street, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

What floor joint sealing looks like in South Street
Across Kent, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you look after a building such as Culverstone Green Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. If you let a flat or house near Meopham station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact and the floor safer.
