What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on. The job usually takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. For a village or hamlet like Soberton, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Floor joint sealing in Soberton, done properly
Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. We seal them with a flexible, water-resistant sealant and stops dirt collecting. Typical jobs include concrete floor joints that have broken down and cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint, across wet room & bathroom floors, skirting boards and commercial floors.
Somewhere as small as Soberton, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Keeping the edges drier helps the sealant last longer.
A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and stops it getting worse.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
What sealant work cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Movement too big for a sealant joint
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Soberton
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. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
For buildings such as Church of St Peter, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Soberton
Can you do floor joint sealing in Soberton?
Yes, Soberton is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
What guarantee comes with floor joint sealing in Soberton?
All our work, in Soberton and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
How long does the job take?
As a guide, most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Movement from drying timber and settling floors pulls the skirting and floor apart. Caulk tends to crack; a flexible sealant does not.
Do you use a paintable sealant?
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.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Can you reseal concrete floor joints in an industrial unit?
Yes, including warehouses, units, shops and offices. Work can be planned around your hours.

Signs you need floor joint sealing in Soberton
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open, then close again in damper months.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
Schools such as Droxford Junior School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether VAT is included
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How much experience the applicator has
- How the colour is chosen
