- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Light foot traffic is generally fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen and are harder to clean out.
How we handle floor joint sealing in Funtley
Floor joint sealing is mostly about choosing the right product and preparing the joint. Old caulk, grout or failed sealant comes out first, then clean, back and seal the joint. We work on skirting boards, wet room & bathroom floors and commercial floors, and common reasons people get in touch are concrete floor joints that have broken down and worn sealant at door thresholds.
Older homes in small places like Funtley often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Funtley as everywhere else we work.

How the visit works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work generally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere like Funtley needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.

What happens if it’s left?
Waiting until the next redecoration can mean a winter of draughts and dirt in the gaps. It’s a quick job to seal them now. Older cottages and farmhouses around Funtley can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Common problems we fix in Funtley
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. The edges pull away from the skirting, and rigid fillers crack.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
Community buildings like Church of St Francis are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Floor joint sealing around Funtley
Across Hampshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Rented homes near Fareham station change hands often, and a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Orchard Lea Infant School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

What the job involves on each surface

Two different floors meeting at a threshold move differently. We bridge them with a flexible bead.
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.
