Floor joint sealing in Foulford
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone because it handles water. We are often asked to deal with rigid edge joints in tiled floors and gaps between floors and kitchen plinths, on tiled floors, skirting boards and thresholds.
Around Foulford, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Common questions in Foulford
Is there a guarantee on floor joint sealing in Foulford?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you cover Foulford for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Foulford is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
If you tell us beforehand, yes. We use a paintable flexible sealant on joints you plan to paint, and silicone elsewhere.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it messy?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Can I do it myself?
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.
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
What we’re called out for in Foulford
Some floors were never given a perimeter gap or movement joint. It pushes against the walls and skirting as it expands, and the sealant or grout breaks.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Open joints that fill with dirt
For buildings such as St John the Baptist, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

How the job changes by surface
Commercial floors
Shops, offices, warehouses and units all have floor joints that need sealing. We talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
Concrete floor joints
Old filler, dust and debris are cleaned out of the joint first. We fit backing where needed.
When something else is needed
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
- Leaks from a failed tanking system
- Large cracks that need a surveyor
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Foulford
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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ringwood School Academy, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.

Advice
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it until it’s ready.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. Resealing early keeps it out.
