- If someone has resealed it before

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Can you do floor joint sealing in Owslebury Bottom?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Owslebury Bottom is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
That depends on the amount of work, but most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
Where the skirting will be painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Silicone is not made to be painted, so we use it where the joint stays unpainted.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Often, yes, where it suits the floor. The grout is raked out and replaced with a flexible sealant in a colour to suit.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
Do not paint over silicone. If the joint will be painted, tell us beforehand so we use a paintable sealant.
A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and stops it getting worse.
Different surfaces, different methods
Thresholds
Thresholds take daily traffic, so the sealant has to be tough as well as flexible and neatly finished.
Commercial floors
Washroom and kitchen floors in commercial buildings need sound edge joints. We reseal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Owslebury Bottom
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.
Letting a property close to Shawford station? Then a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. For buildings such as Church of St Andrew, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. If you look after a building such as Owslebury Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere as small as Owslebury Bottom, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- A flexible sealant, or a floor-joint sealant for concrete, is applied in a colour to suit.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Related advice
Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured for the work.
Why act early in Owslebury Bottom
Waiting until the next redecoration can mean a winter of draughts and dirt in the gaps. Sealing them now is a short job. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Owslebury Bottom, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
