Why act early in Headbourne Worthy
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. Older cottages and farmhouses around Headbourne Worthy can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Can I do it myself?
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. All the old material has to come out first.
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.
Questions from Headbourne Worthy
Will you come out to Headbourne Worthy?
Yes, Headbourne Worthy is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you cover Headbourne Worthy for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Headbourne Worthy is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Floors shrink and settle, especially in the first year or two and through the heating season. Caulk tends to crack; a flexible sealant does not.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will tell you what we are using.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Often, yes. A crack along a grout line often means the floor needs room to move. We replace that grout with a flexible joint.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Joints and finishes in Headbourne Worthy 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. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For landlords with property near Winchester station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Kings Worthy Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. For buildings such as Church of St Mary, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

- Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing

Different surfaces, different methods
Commercial floors
In commercial buildings, we can plan floor joint work around opening hours. Out-of-hours working can be arranged if the floor is busy.
Tiled floors
Large or heated tiled floors need room to move. Where needed, a line of grout is replaced with flexible sealant.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Headbourne Worthy
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
If you manage several properties in or around Headbourne Worthy, several properties can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Do not paint over silicone
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
Don’t paint over silicone. If the joint will be painted, tell us beforehand so we use a paintable sealant.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
