The process
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. The work usually takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. A visit to New Milton is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor and smooth it.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Getting ready for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
Floor joint sealing in New Milton
Gaps along the bottom of skirting are common in new and older homes alike. Decorators’ caulk generally cracks where there’s movement, so we close it with a flexible sealant instead. We work on skirting boards, commercial floors and tiled floors, and people most often call us about caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and rigid edge joints in tiled floors.
Where new homes go up in smaller places like New Milton, it’s often a small development or a single plot. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly from day one.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

What else we do in New Milton
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. Resealing early keeps it out.
Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Your questions about floor joint sealing in New Milton
Can you help a landlord with a rental near New Milton station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Will you come out to New Milton?
Yes, New Milton is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you use a paintable sealant?
If you tell us beforehand, yes. We use a paintable flexible sealant on joints you plan to paint, and silicone elsewhere.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
Often, yes, at the edges and along suitable lines. We remove the grout and seal the line with flexible sealant, giving the floor room to move.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it in a colour to suit.

- Tiled floors
- Concrete floor joints

Different surfaces, different methods
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. We rake out any grout there and reseal.
Commercial floors
Commercial washrooms and kitchens have floor joints that get wet constantly. They’re resealed with a flexible, water-resistant sealant.
Quotes for floor joint sealing in New Milton
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether the work is at height
- The number and length of the joints
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- How we’d reach the joints
- The address or postcode of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
What we are called out for in New Milton
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Arnewood School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
What to look for in a quote
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How hidden problems are handled
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- How long the guarantee is
