Floor joint sealing in Lord's Wood

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Lord's Wood

In kitchens and bathrooms, the joint where the floor meets a bath panel, plinth or skirting takes mop water every day. We seal them with a flexible, water-resistant sealant. Typical jobs include cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint and cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens, on wet room & bathroom floors, commercial floors and tiled floors.

In a village or hamlet like Lord's Wood, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What happens on the day

At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint, depending on the amount of work. In a small place like Lord's Wood, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
  2. We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
  3. We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
  4. We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor.
  5. Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Lord's Wood questions

I let a flat near Eastleigh station. Can you help?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Is Lord's Wood within the area you cover?

Yes, Lord's Wood is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months, wherever you are.

Should I try DIY first?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

What should I tell you?

The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.

Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?

Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Do the sealants smell?

Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

Quotes for floor joint sealing in Lord's Wood

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether the work is at height
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Any mould that needs treating

Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Leave it or put it right?

The right product depends on the floor and the traffic: skirting and tiled floors need flexibility, wet areas need water resistance and concrete needs a product suited to wheels. Using the wrong one is why many floor joints fail. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Lord's Wood, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Aftercare tips

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:

  • Look at floor joints each spring
  • Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
  • Sweep along the edges of the floor
  • Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints

Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Cone off the area if needed until it’s ready.

Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and the edges sound.

Floor joint sealing in Lord's Wood: local notes

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’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.

For buildings such as St Mary's Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. For landlords with property near Eastleigh station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

Common problems we fix in Lord's Wood

Concrete floor joints break down when traffic runs over open or failed joints. Pallet trucks and trolleys knock the edges away until the joint widens.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
  • Concrete floor joints that have broken down
  • Tiled floors with no room to move
  • Open joints that fill with dirt

Managing a site like Colden Common Primary School? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Are they insured?
  • How the colour is chosen
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
