Floor joint sealing in Temple Hill
Every floor moves a little, so its edges need a joint that can flex. Skirting-to-floor gaps, tiled floor joints and concrete joints are all sealed with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. If you have open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards and tiled floors with no room to move, we can put it right, on commercial floors, thresholds and concrete floor joints alike.
In smaller places like Temple Hill, new homes tend to come as small developments or single plots. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly from day one.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

When to call us in Temple Hill
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Open joints that fill with dirt
For landlords with property near Dartford station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.
Questions to ask before you book
- What preparation is included
- How much experience the applicator has
- How the colour is chosen
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
What the job involves on each surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A flexible seal stops water running into the gap.
Tiled floors
A crack running along a grout line is often a sign of a missing movement joint. We rake out that line and seal it.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Temple Hill
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 Temple Hill Primary Academy? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. Community buildings like St Edmunds Church are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

The process
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes in most cases. For a job in Temple Hill, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Temple Hill
Do you work for landlords with property near Dartford station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Temple Hill?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
How much does floor joint sealing cost in Temple Hill?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. Floor edges in bathrooms and kitchens get wet at every clean, so a flexible silicone is the right choice.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
Often, yes, where it suits the floor. The grout is raked out and replaced with a flexible sealant in a colour to suit, giving the floor room to move.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we’re fully insured too.
Is it messy?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.

Honest limits
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
- Structural movement or subsidence
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Commercial floors
- Thresholds
- Concrete floor joints
- Tiled floors
- Skirting boards
- Wet room & bathroom floors
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Don’t paint over silicone
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Light foot traffic is normally fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.
