About our floor joint sealing in Sherborne St John
Tiled floors can crack along the grout when there’s no room for movement. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant coloured to suit the grout. We are often asked to deal with failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels and caulk that has cracked where the floor moves, across wet room & bathroom floors, skirting boards and thresholds.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
Lift furniture rather than sliding it over sealed joints. Dragging can tear the bead.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.

Yes, Sherborne St John is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we’re done.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it, colour-matched where it shows.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Usually it’s movement: timber drying in winter, floors settling, or caulk that can’t stretch. A flexible sealant stays closed as the floor moves.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
Surface by surface
Skirting boards
Skirting gaps are one of the most common floor joints we seal. We take out any cracked caulk before sealing so the bead sits on a clean surface.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Wet room floors rely on sound joints at the walls. We reseal it with a flexible silicone suited to wet areas, and we’ll tell you if the leak seems to come from elsewhere.
Floor joint sealing around Sherborne St John
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 is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Letting a property close to Basingstoke station? Then open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St. Andrew, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Advice
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Sherborne St John
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Sherborne St John
Wheels crossing an unfilled concrete joint chip its edges. Hard wheels damage the joint edges and the joint gets wider.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
If you look after a building such as Sherborne St John Church of England Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
What your quote should include
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- What product goes in the joint
- What guarantee comes with the work
