Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Wrotham Heath
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We use a flexible product that suits both floors so the joint stays neat. We are often asked to deal with cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint and skirting that has pulled away from the floor, on wet room & bathroom floors, concrete floor joints and commercial floors.
Around Wrotham Heath, 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.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Surface by surface
Skirting boards
Skirting pulls away from the floor as floors shrink and settle. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking.
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.
The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating. The job generally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Somewhere as small as Wrotham Heath, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor.
- We check the joints and explain the aftercare.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Floor joint sealing in Wrotham Heath: local notes
Floors around Kent run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Schools such as Platt Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School are buildings too, and floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Margaret, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Wrotham Heath questions
Is Wrotham Heath within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work for landlords with property near Borough Green & Wrotham station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. Where a floor meets a bath panel, kitchen plinth or skirting in a wet area, we use a flexible silicone so water can’t get into the gap.
How long will you be here?
Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint, including the preparation. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
Usually, yes. A crack along a grout line often means the floor needs room to move. We rake out that line and seal it with flexible sealant.
Do you seal warehouse floor joints?
Yes. We reseal concrete floor joints in commercial and industrial units. We’ll talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. All our work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

A floor laid tight to the walls has no room to move. It pushes against the walls and skirting as it expands and joints fail.
The most common problems we see are:

- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Worn sealant at door thresholds

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Don’t fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Light foot traffic is generally fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and stops it getting worse.
