How we quote for floor joint sealing
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- When we can work, for business premises
- The number of rooms or windows
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

- Where the job is, and your postcode

Floor joint sealing in Tonge Corner
Floor joint sealing is mostly about choosing the right product and preparing the joint. We remove what’s there first, then clean, back and seal the joint. We’re often asked to deal with gaps at thresholds between rooms and rigid edge joints in tiled floors, on thresholds, skirting boards and tiled floors.
In a village or hamlet like Tonge Corner, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Tonge Corner: your questions answered
I let a flat near Teynham station. Can you help?

Can I choose the sealant colour?
We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Floors shrink and settle, especially in the first year or two and through the heating season. Rigid fillers split, so we use a flexible sealant.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes. We reseal concrete floor joints in commercial and industrial units. We will talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
What we’re called out for in Tonge Corner
New floors settle once they’re in use. The edges pull away from the skirting, and rigid fillers crack.
The most common problems we see are:
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
Managing a site like Lansdowne Primary School? Then entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.
Questions to ask before booking
- Are they insured?
- How long to leave it before use
- Is VAT in the price?
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
How the visit works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors from start to finish. Somewhere as small as Tonge Corner, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and tooled.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Preparing for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

What floor joint sealing looks like in Tonge Corner
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.
Rented homes near Teynham station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Giles, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
