New homes and floors in Stockbury

Floors around Kent run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.

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.

How we handle floor joint sealing in Stockbury

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 wet room & bathroom floors, and the jobs we see most are perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout and threshold joints that have opened or worn.

Older homes in small places like Stockbury often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Stockbury: your questions answered

Do you cover Stockbury for floor joint sealing?

Yes, Stockbury is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.

Is Stockbury within the area you cover?

Yes. Stockbury is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.

How soon can the floor be mopped?

We give you a cure time for each joint. Light use comes first, cleaning and heavy traffic later in most cases.

Do you seal warehouse floor joints?

Yes. We reseal concrete floor joints in commercial and industrial units. We will talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.

Which products do you use?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months, large or small.

How long does floor joint sealing take?

A typical job takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

What happens on the day

When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work normally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Somewhere as small as Stockbury, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
  2. We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
  3. Edges are cleaned and dried.
  4. A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied.
  5. Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any tricky access
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

What affects the quote in Stockbury

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of sealant required
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Working hours on commercial sites

We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What to tell us for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • The rough size of the job
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • A few photos by email, if you can

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.

What happens if it’s left?

Floor joints left open collect dirt that is hard to clean out. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean and look tidier. In a small place like Stockbury, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Cracked or broken concrete slabs
  • Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
  • Tiles that have lifted or broken

If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

What we seal

  • Thresholds
  • Tiled floors
  • Wet room & bathroom floors
  • Skirting boards
  • Commercial floors
  • Concrete floor joints

Aftercare tips

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Use furniture pads near skirting
  • Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
  • Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
  • Avoid sloshing water against skirting

Don’t paint over silicone. If you plan to paint, we’ll use a paintable product.

Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Sealing them early protects the edges and the surface smoother.

What we’re called out for in Stockbury

Grout is rigid, so a tiled floor with nowhere to move cracks along a grout line. Cracks often run straight along a line of joints, where a flexible joint should have been.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
  • Failed joint filler in concrete floors
  • Open joints that fill with dirt
  • Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens

If you let a flat or house near Newington station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • What the cure time is
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • What insurance they hold
