Standen: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Headcorn station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Is Standen within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, always. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months, wherever you are.
How long will you be here?
Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. These joints get wet every time the floor is cleaned, so we seal them with silicone suited to wet areas.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Often, yes. Straight cracks in grout often show where a movement joint was needed. We replace that grout with a flexible joint.
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.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few photos.
The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors, and we explain the cure time before we leave. For a village or hamlet like Standen, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
Getting a quote
We quote each job on its own. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job and send photos if you have them.
Advice
How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Do not paint over silicone
- Look at floor joints each spring
Have a look at the joints once the heating season is over. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.

Leave it or put it right?
Floor joints left open collect dirt that’s hard to clean out and makes the floor look worn. A neat sealed joint is easier to clean and look tidier. Older cottages and farmhouses around Standen can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

When to call us in Standen
Decorators’ caulk is often used along skirting because it’s cheap and paintable. It cracks where there’s movement or water so the gap reappears.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
Around Standen, as everywhere, floor joint sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Before booking anyone
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
How the job changes by surface
Concrete floor joints
Sawn joints in concrete floors control where it cracks. We reseal them with a floor-joint product suited to the traffic.
Thresholds
Threshold joints get a lot of feet, so we choose a hard-wearing, flexible product.
New homes and floors in Standen
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. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
