How we handle floor joint sealing in Godshill
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone, which is not made to be painted. We work on concrete floor joints, tiled floors and skirting boards, and people most often call us about caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and gaps at thresholds between rooms.
Work in a small place like Godshill just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Godshill and across Hampshire.

What we are called out for in Godshill
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
Community buildings like St Giles are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether you can choose the colour
- What the cure time is
What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Somewhere as small as Godshill, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice
Godshill: your questions answered
Is floor joint sealing in Godshill guaranteed?
All our work, in Godshill and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is Godshill within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. Floor edges in bathrooms and kitchens get wet at every clean, so a flexible silicone is the right choice.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
When something else is needed
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
- Large cracks that need a surveyor
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before booking.

What else we do in Godshill
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Cone off the area if needed while it cures.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. Adding a movement joint early can stop cracks spreading to the tiles.
Why deal with it now?
Regrouting a cracked line in a tiled floor rarely fixes it. If the floor needs to move there, the grout will crack again. Replacing that line with flexible sealant gives it somewhere to go. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Godshill, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.
What you get with us

Floor joint sealing around Godshill
Floors around Hampshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you look after a building such as The Burgate School and Sixth Form, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.
