Floor joint sealing in South Ham

How we handle floor joint sealing in South Ham

Floor joint sealing is mostly about choosing the right product and preparing the joint. We remove what’s there first, then clean, back and seal the joint. We work on thresholds, concrete floor joints and commercial floors, and the jobs we see most are rigid edge joints in tiled floors and open joints around bathroom floor edges.

In and around South Ham, floors range from older timber boards to tiles and newer finishes, from timber that moves with the seasons to tiles laid on concrete. Skirting and threshold joints need a sealant that suits the floor.

Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

For landlords and businesses

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.

Different surfaces, different methods

Commercial floors

Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.

Skirting boards

Gaps between skirting and floor open as timber and floors move. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking in a colour to suit.

Why it’s worth doing now in South Ham

Floor joints left open collect dirt that is hard to clean out and makes the floor look worn. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean. In an older home around South Ham, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Do you need floor joint sealing in South Ham?

Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. Heating dries timber and opens gaps along the skirting and they change again in summer.

The problems people normally mention when they call are:

  • Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
  • Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
  • Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
  • Failed joint filler in concrete floors

Community buildings like Saint Peter's Church are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • How the colour is chosen
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What product goes in the joint

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
  • Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
  • Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
  • Ask before painting over a sealed joint

Have a look at the joints once the heating season is over. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up before they spread.

Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further and are harder to clean out.

Joints and finishes in South Ham homes

Across Hampshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.

Schools such as St Anne's Catholic Primary School are buildings too, and floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. If you let a flat or house near Basingstoke station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

How it works

Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors and we leave things clean and tidy. For a job in South Ham, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
  2. Old material is removed from the joint.
  3. We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
  4. We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor and smooth it.
  5. Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Clear the area around the work

Is South Ham in your area for floor joint sealing?

Yes, South Ham is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.

Do you work on commercial floors?

Yes. We clean out the joints and reseal them with a product suited to the floor. Let us know about the traffic when you ask for a quote.

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 isn’t made to be painted, so we use it where the joint stays unpainted.

Yes. Just list everything you need and you will get one quote.

Where are you based?

How long before the joint can take traffic?

You’ll get the times before we go. It depends on the sealant, and light foot traffic is normally fine before wet cleaning or wheels.

What does floor joint sealing cost?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we’ll talk you through it.
