How it works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Somewhere like The Frenches needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Floor joint sealing in The Frenches
Every floor moves a little, so its edges need a joint that can flex. We seal skirting gaps, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. Common call-outs are for cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens and skirting that has pulled away from the floor, on commercial floors, tiled floors and thresholds.
In a village or hamlet like The Frenches, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
Do not paint over silicone. If you plan to paint, we will use a paintable product.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Sealing them early protects the edges and the surface smoother.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Why act early in The Frenches
Water that gets past a floor joint can damage the floor beneath. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. Older cottages and farmhouses around The Frenches can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.

What floor joint sealing looks like in The Frenches
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’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For landlords with property near Mottisfont & Dunbridge station, 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 All Saints, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

How the job changes by surface
Thresholds
A threshold is where floors and frames meet. We seal them with a flexible sealant that suits both sides.
Wet room and bathroom floors
In a wet room, the floor-to-wall joint is a key line of defence. It’s resealed with a sanitary silicone, and we will tell you if the leak seems to come from elsewhere.
