Common problems we fix in Sutton at Hone
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.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
Letting a property close to Farningham Road station? Then a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

How we handle floor joint sealing in Sutton at Hone
Tiled floors can crack along the grout when there’s no room for movement. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant in a matching colour. We work on concrete floor joints, thresholds and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are floor edges that trap water and grime and gaps opening between the floor and skirting.
Older homes in small places like Sutton at Hone often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

What else we do in Sutton at Hone
Why act early in Sutton at Hone
Filling a skirting gap with caulk looks fine at first, but the movement soon cracks it. A flexible sealant stretches instead and keeps the joint sealed. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Sutton at Hone, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Sutton at Hone
Across Kent, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Managing a site like Sutton-At-Hone Church of England Primary School? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. Community buildings like Church of St John the Baptist are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
Don’t paint over silicone. If the joint will be painted, tell us beforehand so we use a paintable sealant.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen.

Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking like caulk.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Do you seal warehouse floor joints?
Yes, including warehouses, units, shops and offices. We can plan around your opening times, and out-of-hours work can be arranged.
How long will you be here?
That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
