Leave it or put it right?
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Sealing them now keeps the problem at the surface. In a smaller place like Tenterden, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Tenterden
Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is generally the better choice because it handles water. If you have cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens and open joints around bathroom floor edges, we can help, on commercial floors, skirting boards and tiled floors alike.
In and around Tenterden, floors range from older timber boards to tiles and newer finishes, each moving in its own way. Skirting and threshold joints need a sealant that suits the floor.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Questions from Tenterden
Do you cover Tenterden for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Tenterden is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Tenterden?
Yes. Tenterden is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Do you seal warehouse floor joints?
Yes. We reseal concrete floor joints in commercial and industrial units. The product is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking like caulk.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Use furniture pads near skirting
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Cone off the area if needed.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Sealing them early protects the edges.

What else we do in Tenterden
When to call us in Tenterden
When a tiled floor has no movement joints, the grout takes the strain. Cracks often run straight along a line of joints, where a flexible joint should have been.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
Managing a site like Tenterden Infant School? Then entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Floor joint sealing in Tenterden: local notes
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.
For buildings such as Parish Church of St Mildred, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. A visit to Tenterden is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
