Questions from Lowford

Will you come out to Lowford?

Yes, Lowford is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Bursledon station?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.

Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?

Usually, yes. A crack along a grout line often means the floor needs room to move. We rake out that line and seal it with flexible sealant.

Do you use a paintable sealant?

Where the skirting will be painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Silicone will not take paint, so it’s kept for wet areas and unpainted joints.

Do I need to be at home?

If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.

What does floor joint sealing cost?

We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.

Where do you work from?

We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Floor joint sealing in Lowford

Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is usually the better choice, which is not made to be painted. If you have caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and gaps between floors and kitchen plinths, we can help, whatever the surface.

Homes around Lowford range from older cottages to newer houses, and their floors range just as widely, each moving in its own way. The sealant at skirtings and thresholds has to suit the floor it meets.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Why deal with it now?

Dirt builds up in open joints and makes the floor look worn. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean and finishes the floor. Homes in smaller places like Lowford can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.

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.

When to call us in Lowford

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

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Worn sealant at door thresholds
  • Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
  • Floor edges that trap water and grime
  • Gaps opening between the floor and skirting

If you let a flat or house near Bursledon station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

How to choose a mastic man

Keeping the joints in good condition

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:

  • Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
  • Sweep along the edges of the floor
  • Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
  • Check the sealant is paintable before decorating

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. Resealing early keeps it out.

New homes and floors in Lowford

Floors around Hampshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.

Managing a site like Bursledon Church of England Infant School? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. Community buildings like St Paul’s Church are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Landlord and commercial work in Lowford

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

What we do, step by step

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint and we leave things clean and tidy. For a job in Lowford, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
  2. Old material is removed from the joint.
  3. We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
  4. A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and tooled.
  5. Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
