Why deal with it now?
Left open, concrete joints break down under traffic. Resealing it early protects the edges. Around Asheldham, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

About our floor joint sealing in Asheldham
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone because it handles water. Typical jobs include open joints around bathroom floor edges and worn sealant at door thresholds, on tiled floors, thresholds and skirting boards.
Around Asheldham, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

What affects the cost of floor joint sealing
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- The number and length of the joints
- Access and height
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- The type of property
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If someone has resealed it before
Need a quote? Please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the job. We will explain what we’d do and send you a clear quote before any work starts.
What happens on the day
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint from start to finish. In a small place like Asheldham, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- A flexible sealant, or a floor-joint sealant for concrete, is applied in a colour to suit.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear the area around the work

Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Light foot traffic is generally fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels so we’ll give you each time.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. Resealing early keeps it out.
Joints and finishes in Asheldham homes
Across Essex, 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.
Rented homes near Southminster station change hands often, and a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

Asheldham: your questions answered
I let a flat near Southminster station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Will you come out to Asheldham?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
A typical job takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Is it worth trying it myself?
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 sealant along the skirting be painted?
It depends on the sealant, so let us know first. Joints that will be painted get a paintable product, and silicone elsewhere.

Common problems we fix in Asheldham
Decorators’ caulk is often used along skirting because it’s cheap and paintable. It cracks where there’s movement or water, which is why so many skirting joints look broken.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
For buildings such as Church of St James, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
Before booking anyone
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- How the colour is chosen
- How long to leave it before use
How the job changes by surface
Commercial floors
Washroom and kitchen floors in commercial buildings need sound edge joints. We reseal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
Concrete floor joints
Open concrete joints chip at the edges when wheels cross them. A sealed joint protects the edges and stops debris collecting.
