Floor Joint Sealing in Way
We cover Way for sealing skirting-to-floor joints, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly.
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
Floor joint sealing in Way, done properly
Floors move, and the joint where they meet a wall, skirting, threshold or another floor has to move with them. Skirting-to-floor gaps, tiled floor joints and concrete joints are all sealed with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. If you are dealing with floor edges that trap water and grime and gaps between floors and kitchen plinths, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Around Way, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Different surfaces, different methods
Wet room and bathroom floors
Wet room floors rely on sound joints at the walls. It’s resealed with a sanitary silicone, and we’ll tell you if the leak seems to come from elsewhere.
Commercial floors
Shops, offices, warehouses and units all have floor joints that need sealing. We talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
Common questions in Way
Is Way within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
I let a flat near Minster station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Usually it’s movement: timber drying in winter, floors settling, or caulk that cannot stretch. A flexible bead keeps up with the movement.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. We cut out any old sealant or caulk and reseal with flexible silicone in a colour to suit.
How long does the job take?
That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. We will tell you when we quote.

What we’re called out for in Way
Water and dirt collect in open floor joints. In wet areas, water runs into the gap at every clean and can reach the subfloor.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
Managing a site like Minster Church of England Primary School? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

Joints and finishes in Way homes
Across Kent, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
For buildings such as Church of Saint Mary the Virgin, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Letting a property close to Minster station? Then a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

- Old material is removed from the joint.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied.
- We check the joints and explain the aftercare.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Way
Regrouting a cracked line in a tiled floor rarely fixes it. If the floor needs to move there, the grout will crack again. A flexible movement joint is the fix. Around Way, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
