Your questions about floor joint sealing in Stone Cross
Is Stone Cross in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Stone Cross is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Ashurst Kent station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
It’s normally the floor moving: heating drying the timber, or a filler that’s too rigid. A flexible bead keeps up with the movement.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it, colour-matched where it shows.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Caulk works on still, dry joints, but it splits where the joint moves or gets wet. For most floor joints, we use a flexible sealant.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.

Why deal with it now?
Regrouting a cracked line in a tiled floor rarely fixes it. The movement is still there, so the grout fails again. A flexible movement joint is the fix. Around Stone Cross, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

What we can’t put right
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. Sealant will not put right:
- A tiled floor that needs relaying

Do you need floor joint sealing in Stone Cross?
A floor laid tight to the walls has no room to move. It pushes against the walls and skirting as it expands and joints fail.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
Rented homes near Ashurst Kent station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.
What your quote should include
- What insurance they hold
- Whether you can choose the colour
- How long to leave it before use
- What product goes in the joint
Floor joint sealing around Stone Cross
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’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For buildings such as Church of St Martin of Tours, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Schools such as Fordcombe Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.
