What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It generally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Somewhere like Southrope needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Clear the area around the work

How we handle floor joint sealing in Southrope
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. If you have threshold joints that have opened or worn and chipped and open joints in warehouse floors, we can put it right, on skirting boards, thresholds and tiled floors alike.
Work in a small place like Southrope just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Why act early in Southrope
Left open, concrete joints break down under traffic. Resealing it early protects the edges and keeps the damage down. Around Southrope, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Southrope: your questions answered
I let a flat near Alton station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Will you come out to Southrope?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we will put it right.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
It’s normally the floor moving: heating drying the timber, or a filler that’s too rigid. A flexible sealant stays closed as the floor moves.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk is fine for dry joints that don’t move, but it cracks where there’s movement or water. We use a flexible sealant for most skirting and floor joints.
Joints and finishes in Southrope homes
Across Hampshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Community buildings like Church of St. Mary are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Landmarks near Southrope

Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
When to call us in Southrope
Caulk is the usual filler for skirting. In a joint that moves or gets wet, it splits.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
For landlords with property near Alton station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is chosen
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- When the joint can take water or movement
