How we handle floor joint sealing in Yorkletts
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 and stops dirt collecting. We work on thresholds, commercial floors and concrete floor joints, and common reasons people get in touch are threshold joints that have opened or worn and gaps opening between the floor and skirting.
Somewhere as small as Yorkletts, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an 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 there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like Yorkletts, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about any water getting in
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Signs you need floor joint sealing in Yorkletts
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so and anything rigid cracks.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
If you let a flat or house near Whitstable station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Leave it or put it right?
An open concrete floor joint gets wider every time something heavy crosses it. A sealed joint supports the edges before they need a bigger repair. In a small place like Yorkletts, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What you get with us
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it while it cures.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and stops it getting worse.

Floor joint sealing around Yorkletts
Across Kent, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
If you look after a building such as The Whitstable School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. For buildings such as St Alphege, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
