Floor joint sealing in Monk Sherborne, done properly
Large tiled floors, and those over underfloor heating, often need movement joints. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant. If you have failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels and cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint, we can help.
For a small place like Monk Sherborne, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.

Surface by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Floor joints in bathrooms take water every day. We seal them with anti-fungal sanitary silicone to keep water out of the edges.
Thresholds
Where a tiled floor meets timber or carpet, the joint takes movement from both sides. We bridge them with a flexible bead.

Why act early in Monk Sherborne
Floor joints left open collect dirt that’s hard to clean out and makes the floor look worn. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean and finishes the floor. Older cottages and farmhouses around Monk Sherborne can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What we’re called out for in Monk Sherborne
Water and dirt collect in open floor joints. In kitchens and bathrooms, mop water gets into the gap and behind skirting and plinths.
The problems people normally mention when they call include:
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
Community buildings like Church of All Saints are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Advice
Joints and finishes in Monk Sherborne homes
Floors around Hampshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Priory Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. For landlords with property near Basingstoke station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Don’t paint over silicone
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact and the floor safer.
Monk Sherborne: your questions answered
I let a flat near Basingstoke station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is Monk Sherborne in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Monk Sherborne is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes. We clean out the joints and reseal them with a product suited to the floor. Tell us what runs over the floor.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
When can I walk on the floor?
You will get the times before we go. That depends on the product, and walking on it generally comes before mopping or wheeled traffic.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. Where a floor meets a bath panel, kitchen plinth or skirting in a wet area, we use a flexible silicone.
Why not just use caulk?
Because caulk cracks where there’s movement or water. Floor edges move through the year, so we use a flexible sealant that stretches.
