About our floor joint sealing in Highcliffe
Large tiled floors, and those over underfloor heating, often need movement joints. Where one is needed, we rake out the grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant. Common call-outs are for failed joint filler in concrete floors and threshold joints that have opened or worn, across tiled floors, thresholds and wet room & bathroom floors.
Homes around Highcliffe range from older cottages to newer houses, and their floors range just as widely, each moving in its own way. Skirting and threshold joints need a sealant that suits the floor.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Joints and finishes in Highcliffe homes
Floors around Hampshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
If you look after a building such as All Saints Church of England Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. Letting a property close to Winchester station? Then a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

When to call us in Highcliffe
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. The edges pull away from the skirting.
People generally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
For buildings such as All Saints, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
What your quote should include
- How the colour is chosen
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- How much experience the applicator has
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
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.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further over time.
Why it’s worth doing now in Highcliffe
Caulk is quick and cheap, but it cracks where the joint moves or gets wet, but the movement soon cracks it. A flexible sealant stretches instead and keeps the joint sealed. In an older home around Highcliffe, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first.
Why book with us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
The process
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before work begins. The work generally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. In a smaller place like Highcliffe, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- A flexible sealant, or a floor-joint sealant for concrete, is applied in a colour to suit.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Clear the area around the work

Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
How the job changes by surface
Concrete floor joints
Old filler, dust and debris are cleaned out of the joint, vacuuming them clean. Backing goes in where the depth needs controlling.
Tiled floors
Tiled floors need movement joints at edges and across large areas. We replace grout with flexible sealant along the right lines.

Is Highcliffe within the area you cover?
Yes. Highcliffe is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
I let a flat near Winchester station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we agree the colour with you before any work starts.

Generally, yes. A crack along a grout line often means the floor needs room to move. We replace that grout with a flexible joint.
