Bartley Floor Joint Sealing
Our applicators work in Bartley on sealing skirting-to-floor joints, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and a one-year guarantee.
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
Floor joint sealing in Bartley, done properly
Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone. We work on skirting boards, commercial floors and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are open joints around bathroom floor edges and floor edges that trap water and grime.
In a village or hamlet like Bartley, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

FAQs for Bartley
Is Bartley within the area you cover?
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.
I let a flat near Ashurst New Forest station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we will put it right.
Can I add another job to the visit?

The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
What we do, step by step
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. For a village or hamlet like Bartley, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and tooled.
- We check the joints and explain the aftercare.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Bartley
Some floors were never given a perimeter gap or movement joint. It pushes against the walls and skirting as it expands and joints fail.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
Rented homes near Ashurst New Forest station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Joints and finishes in Bartley homes
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. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you look after a building such as Bartley Church of England Junior School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

What the job involves on each surface
Commercial floors
Commercial washrooms and kitchens have floor joints that get wet constantly. We reseal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
Tiled floors
Perimeter joints in tiled floors should be sealant, not grout. We rake out any grout there and reseal.
Why act early in Bartley
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Sealing them now keeps the problem at the surface. In a small place like Bartley, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it while it cures.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and the edges sound.
