Leave it or put it right?
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. Sealing them now is a short job for most homes. Older cottages and farmhouses around Berrick Salome can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Floor joint sealing in Berrick Salome: local notes
Floors around Oxfordshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Community buildings like Church of St Helen are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Advice

Also in Berrick Salome
Do you need floor joint sealing in Berrick Salome?
Wheels crossing an unfilled concrete joint chip its edges. Hard wheels damage the joint edges until the joint widens.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
In and around Berrick Salome, as anywhere, good floor joint sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Berrick Salome: your questions answered
Is floor joint sealing in Berrick Salome guaranteed?
All our work, in Berrick Salome and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Is Berrick Salome within the area you cover?
Yes. Berrick Salome is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Berrick Salome and the rest of Oxfordshire.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
For painted skirting, we use a flexible product that can be painted. Silicone will not take paint, so it’s kept for wet areas and unpainted joints.
Why not just use caulk?
Caulk is fine for dry joints that do not move, but it splits where the joint moves or gets wet. For most floor joints, we use a flexible sealant.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll tell you what we are using.
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
Keep heavy furniture from dragging across the joints. Sharp edges can cut the sealant.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further and are harder to clean out.
