About our floor joint sealing in Hillstreet
Good floor joints come down to the right product and clean, prepared edges. Old caulk, grout or failed sealant comes out first, then clean, back and seal the joint. Typical jobs include perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout and threshold joints that have opened or worn, on commercial floors, concrete floor joints and tiled floors.
Somewhere as small as Hillstreet, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Hillstreet and across Hampshire.

FAQs for Hillstreet
Can you do floor joint sealing in Hillstreet?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Hillstreet is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
I let a flat near Totton station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, it will not last. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, always. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. Where a floor meets a bath panel, kitchen plinth or skirting in a wet area, we use a flexible silicone to keep mop water out.
How much does floor joint sealing cost in Hillstreet?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Because caulk cracks where there’s movement or water. Floor edges move through the year, so a flexible sealant suits them better.
Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
Don’t paint over silicone. If you plan to paint, we’ll use a paintable product.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. A sound seal stops that happening.
What affects the quote in Hillstreet
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- When we can work, for business premises
- Access and height
- How much there is to do
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Whether it has been sealed before

What we are called out for in Hillstreet
Decorators’ caulk is often used along skirting because it’s cheap and paintable. In a joint that moves or gets wet, it splits.
Look out for these signs:
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
For buildings such as St Anne's, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
What your quote should include
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- How hidden problems are handled
- How much experience the applicator has
- Whether VAT is included
Floor joint sealing in Hillstreet: local notes
Floors around Hampshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
For landlords with property near Totton station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. If you look after a building such as Calmore Junior School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

What we do, step by step
We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint.

- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
