How we handle floor joint sealing in Itchen Abbas
Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. We seal them with a flexible, water-resistant sealant so water and dirt can’t get in. If you have perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout and tiled floors with no room to move, we can put it right.
For a small place like Itchen Abbas, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

How we quote for floor joint sealing
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Any mould that needs treating
- How much there is to do
- The old material and how stubborn it is
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- A few photos by email, if you can
- If someone has resealed it before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
Have a look at the joints once the heating season is over. If anything has opened, it’s easy to reseal.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Itchen Abbas
Across Hampshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
For buildings such as Church of St John the Baptist, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. If you look after a building such as Itchen Abbas Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. For landlords with property near Winchester station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere as small as Itchen Abbas, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Advice
Your questions about floor joint sealing in Itchen Abbas
Do you work for landlords with property near Winchester station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Itchen Abbas?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
If you tell us beforehand, yes. We use a paintable flexible sealant on joints you plan to paint, and silicone elsewhere.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Generally, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes, at the edges and along suitable lines. The grout is raked out and replaced with a flexible sealant in a colour to suit so the floor can move.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. Sealing them now is a short job in most rooms. In a small place like Itchen Abbas, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
