About our floor joint sealing in Durford Wood
The gap under a skirting board often opens as floors and walls move with the seasons. Decorators’ caulk generally cracks where there’s movement, so we close it with a flexible sealant instead. If you have gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and gaps opening between the floor and skirting, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Durford Wood, 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.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Don’t fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
Don’t paint over silicone. If you plan to paint, we’ll use a paintable product.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Sealing them early protects the edges.
How the job changes by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Floor joints in bathrooms take water every day. We seal them with anti-fungal sanitary silicone to keep water out of the edges.
Skirting boards
If the skirting is painted, a paintable flexible sealant works well. Where water is involved, silicone is the better choice.
How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. In a small place like Durford Wood, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Getting ready for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

What happens if it’s left?
An open concrete floor joint gets wider every time something heavy crosses it. Resealing it early protects the edges. In a small place like Durford Wood, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.

Floor joint sealing around Durford Wood
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. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Mary, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Rented homes near Liss station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. Managing a site like Liss Infant School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Durford Wood questions
I let a flat near Liss station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Durford Wood?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
Can I do it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. All our work carries our one-year guarantee.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Do you seal warehouse floor joints?
Yes. We clean out the joints and reseal them with a product suited to the floor. Let us know about the traffic and we will quote.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
