Floor joint sealing near Springhead

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
  • Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
  • Keep dirt out of the joints
  • Check skirting joints after the heating season

Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Light foot traffic is generally fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels.

A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it keeps the room tidier.

Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Springhead

Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone, which is not made to be painted. Typical jobs include chipped and open joints in warehouse floors and floor edges that trap water and grime, on commercial floors, thresholds and wet room & bathroom floors.

Where new homes go up in smaller places like Springhead, it’s often a small development or a single plot. The sealant around baths, showers, frames and skirtings needs to be right from the start.

All our work comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

The process

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. In a smaller place like Springhead, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.

  1. First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
  2. Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
  3. We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
  4. The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
  5. The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

How the job changes by surface

Tiled floors

Tiled floors need movement joints at edges and across large areas. Where needed, a line of grout is replaced with flexible sealant coloured to suit.

Commercial floors

In commercial buildings, we can plan floor joint work around opening hours. We can arrange out-of-hours work.

What affects the quote in Springhead

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:

  • The number and length of the joints
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • Which sealant suits the joint

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • The type of property
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy

We don’t publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Can sealant along the skirting be painted?

Where you plan to paint, we do. Silicone does not take paint, so tell us your plans.

Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?

Caulk works on still, dry joints, but it cracks where there’s movement or water. We use a flexible sealant for most skirting and floor joints.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, always. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months.

How long will you be here?

As a guide, most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Larger jobs naturally take longer.

Do the sealants smell?

It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.

Joints and finishes in Springhead homes

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.

Letting a property close to Ebbsfleet International station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. For buildings such as Parish Church of St Botolph, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. If you look after a building such as Painters Ash Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Can I do it myself?

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

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 does not work out, we can still put it right.

Why it’s worth doing now in Springhead

Water that gets past a floor joint can damage the floor beneath. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. In a smaller place like Springhead, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.

What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start.
