How we handle floor joint sealing in High Cross
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side. We’re often asked to deal with open joints that fill with dirt and rigid edge joints in tiled floors, across commercial floors, wet room & bathroom floors and tiled floors.
Around High Cross, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Different surfaces, different methods
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A flexible seal stops water running into the gap.
Skirting boards
If the skirting is painted, a paintable flexible sealant works well. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is normally better.
When it is not the sealant
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Structural movement or subsidence
- Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Thresholds

Leave it or put it right?
Dirt builds up in open joints, and they look untidy. A neat sealed joint is easier to clean. Around High Cross, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

How it works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere as small as High Cross, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes, including warehouses, units, shops and offices. We can plan around your opening times.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Floors shrink and settle, especially in the first year or two and through the heating season opens the gap. Caulk tends to crack; a flexible sealant does not.
Why not just use caulk?
Only on dry joints that don’t move. Caulk cracks as the floor moves and the gap reopens. A flexible sealant is the better choice.
What should I tell you?
Let us know what needs doing and where. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We’ll 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.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Do you need floor joint sealing in High Cross?
When a tiled floor has no movement joints, the grout takes the strain. You will see a crack running along the grout, showing where a movement joint was needed.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
If you look after a building such as Froxfield Church of England Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
Before booking anyone
- Whether they’re fully insured
- What product goes in the joint
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What floor joint sealing looks like in High Cross
Floors around Hampshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Rented homes near Petersfield station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. For buildings such as Church of St Peter, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
