About our floor joint sealing in Upper Wield
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is normally the better choice, which is not made to be painted. Typical jobs include gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and concrete floor joints that have broken down, on commercial floors, thresholds and tiled floors.
Somewhere as small as Upper Wield, 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.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Upper Wield
Is floor joint sealing in Upper Wield guaranteed?
All our work, in Upper Wield and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you cover smaller places like Upper Wield?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
Follow the cure time we give you. Light use comes first, cleaning and heavy traffic later.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Usually, yes. Straight cracks in grout often show where a movement joint was needed. We rake out that line and seal it with flexible sealant.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
It’s normally the floor moving: timber drying in winter, floors settling, or caulk that cannot stretch. A flexible bead keeps up with the movement.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we’re fully insured.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.

Different surfaces, different methods
Concrete floor joints
Old filler, dust and debris are cleaned out of the joint. We fit backing where needed.
Tiled floors
When grout cracks along a straight line, the floor is telling you it needs to move. That line is converted to a flexible joint where it suits the floor.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Large cracks that need a surveyor
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Why it’s worth doing now in Upper Wield
Waiting until the next redecoration can mean a winter of draughts and dirt in the gaps. Sealing them now is a short job for most homes. Older cottages and farmhouses around Upper Wield can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

If you manage several properties in or around Upper Wield, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each.
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Don’t paint over silicone
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
Avoid flooding the floor when you clean. Keeping the edges drier helps the sealant last longer.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
New homes and floors in Upper Wield
Floors around Hampshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Community buildings like Church of St James are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Around Upper Wield, as everywhere, floor joint sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
