About our floor joint sealing in Oakhanger
Gaps along the bottom of skirting are common in new and older homes alike. Caulk tends to crack there, so we close it with a flexible sealant instead. Typical jobs include chipped and open joints in warehouse floors and open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards, on skirting boards, wet room & bathroom floors and commercial floors.
For a small place like Oakhanger, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

Why it’s worth doing now in Oakhanger
Left open, concrete joints break down under traffic. Resealing it early protects the edges and keeps the damage down. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Oakhanger, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
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.

Should I try DIY first?

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can be quoted together.
What affects the quote in Oakhanger
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether the work is at height
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first.
Asking for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- How we’d reach the joints
- A few pictures by email, if you can
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that is easier. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll talk you through the work before giving you a price.
DIY versus a professional finish
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, then guaranteed for a year.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
New homes and floors in Oakhanger
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.
Community buildings like St Mary Magdalene's Church are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. For landlords with property near Alton station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Commercial floors
Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Skirting boards
Skirting pulls away from the floor as floors shrink and settle. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking painted or coloured to match.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Oakhanger
Water and dirt collect in open floor joints. In kitchens and bathrooms, mop water gets into the gap and behind skirting and plinths.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
If you look after a building such as Mill Chase Academy, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.
