About our floor joint sealing in Welling
In kitchens and bathrooms, the joint where the floor meets a bath panel, plinth or skirting takes mop water every day. We seal them with a flexible, water-resistant sealant so water and dirt can’t get in. If you’re dealing with gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and failed joint filler in concrete floors, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Across London, commercial floors have movement joints that break down under heavy foot traffic, while new homes need a neat, sound finish around frames, baths and kitchens before handover.
All our work comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
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, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Different surfaces, different methods
Skirting boards
Gaps between skirting and floor open as timber and floors move. We seal them with a flexible sealant rather than caulk.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floors meet baths, trays, panels and skirting. We seal them with anti-fungal sanitary silicone that keeps water out.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Welling
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.
When to call us in Welling
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open, then close again in damper months.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
If you let a flat or house near Welling station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

Welling questions
Can you do floor joint sealing in Welling?
Yes, Welling is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Is parking a problem for a job in Welling?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
When can I walk on the floor?
We’ll tell you before we leave. That depends on the product, and light foot traffic is normally fine before wet cleaning or wheels.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. We cut out any old sealant or caulk and reseal with flexible silicone, colour-matched where it shows.
Do you use a paintable sealant?
On joints you want to paint, yes. Silicone in bathrooms and kitchens can’t be painted, so tell us your plans.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
What floor joint sealing looks like in Welling
Across Greater London, 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. Many of London’s new homes are flats in bigger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent.
Community buildings like St John's Church are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Welling is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

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. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Putting it right early is much less trouble for homes in Welling.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
