About our floor joint sealing in Drayton
Thresholds are where two floors, or a floor and a door, meet. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side in a colour to suit. If you’re dealing with failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels and caulk that has cracked where the floor moves, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Drayton, 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.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Drayton and across Hampshire.

What affects the cost of floor joint sealing
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The amount of work
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The product the joint needs
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
If you are in Drayton and need floor joint sealing, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we’ll agree the price before any work begins.
What else we do in Drayton
What the job involves on each surface
Commercial floors
Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Concrete floor joints
Sawn joints in concrete floors control where it cracks. They’re resealed with a product chosen for what runs over them.
Joints and finishes in Drayton homes
Across Hampshire, 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 Petersfield station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. For buildings such as Church of All Saints, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
Drayton is about 5 miles west of Petersfield, in Hampshire. If you need floor joint sealing in Drayton, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for a quick quote. We’re based in Crawley and cover Hampshire. Drayton is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire where we work. Portsmouth is on our list too, around 14 miles away.

Local landmarks in Drayton
Locally, jobs take us to homes and businesses close to The George Inn, among other places. The closest station to Drayton is Petersfield station, roughly 4.7 miles east. Nearby you’ll also find Clanfield Earthwork (4.8 miles south-east) and Petersfield Community Hospital (4.7 miles east). Green spaces nearby include Henwood Down and Shutts Copse.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Keeping the edges drier helps the sealant last longer.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact and the floor safer.
What we are called out for in Drayton
A floor laid tight to the walls has no room to move. It pushes against the walls and skirting as it expands.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
Schools such as East Meon Church of England Controlled Primary School are buildings too, and floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- What happens if the job turns out different
- How the colour is chosen
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In a small place like Drayton, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- 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.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Preparing for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Drayton questions
I let a flat near Petersfield station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Will you come out to Drayton?
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 I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
For landlords and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
If you manage several properties in or around Drayton, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and photos by email help.
