- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Don’t fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it until it’s ready.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further.
Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Hiltingbury
Every floor moves a little, so its edges need a joint that can flex. We seal skirting gaps, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. We work on concrete floor joints, wet room & bathroom floors and skirting boards, and people most often call us about open joints around bathroom floor edges and chipped and open joints in warehouse floors.
For a new home in or near Hiltingbury, it’s worth checking the sealant early. Common snags include open skirting joints, lifting shower seals and gaps around frames.

Joints and finishes in Hiltingbury 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.
If you let a flat or house near Chandlers Ford 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 Hiltingbury Junior School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

How the job changes by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Mop water gets into any open joint at the edge of a bathroom floor. A neat silicone joint keeps it out.
Tiled floors
Tiled floors need movement joints at edges and across large areas. Where needed, a line of grout is replaced with flexible sealant in a matching colour.
What happens if it’s left?
Filling a skirting gap with caulk looks fine at first, but the movement soon cracks it. A flexible sealant stretches instead. In an older home around Hiltingbury, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will talk you through it.

Common problems we fix in Hiltingbury
An open floor joint fills with dirt and water. In kitchens and bathrooms, mop water gets into the gap and can reach the subfloor.
Look out for these signs:
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St. Martin in the Woods, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

What happens on the day
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint and we leave things clean and tidy. For a job in Hiltingbury, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor and tooled.
- We check the joints and explain the aftercare.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
Questions from Hiltingbury
I let a flat near Chandlers Ford station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you cover Hiltingbury for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Hiltingbury is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Do you use a paintable sealant?
For painted skirting, we use a flexible product that can be painted. Silicone is not made to be painted, so it’s kept for wet areas and unpainted joints.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
In most cases you can choose. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before we start.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we will put it right.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
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.
