About our floor joint sealing in Lower Swanwick
The gap under a skirting board often opens as floors and walls move with the seasons. Decorators’ caulk normally cracks where there’s movement, so we close it with a flexible sealant instead. Typical jobs include failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels and open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards, across tiled floors, skirting boards and commercial floors.
Around Lower Swanwick, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Lower Swanwick
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 site and facilities teams at buildings such as Bursledon Church of England Infant School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. Community buildings like Church of St Leonard are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. For landlords with property near Bursledon station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Different surfaces, different methods
Wet room and bathroom floors
Floor joints in bathrooms take water every day. We seal them with anti-fungal sanitary silicone that keeps water out.
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Don’t fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
Keep heavy furniture from dragging across the joints. Sharp edges can cut the sealant especially in the first few days.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Sealing them early protects the edges and the surface smoother.
What sealant work cannot fix
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. It won’t solve:
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How it works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. In a small place like Lower Swanwick, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
