Floor joint sealing in Bilting
Thresholds are where two floors, or a floor and a door, meet. We use a flexible product that suits both floors so the joint stays neat. If you have perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout and failed joint filler in concrete floors, we can help.
For a small place like Bilting, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
Every job comes with a one-year guarantee.

What we’re called out for in Bilting
New floors settle once they’re in use. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so, and rigid fillers crack.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
Managing a site like Wye School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.
What to look for in a quote
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What product goes in the joint
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Feet are usually fine before mopping or wheeled traffic.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact and the floor safer.

What else we do in Bilting
What the job involves on each surface
Concrete floor joints
We clean concrete joints out thoroughly before sealing. Backing goes in where the depth needs controlling.
Skirting boards
Skirting pulls away from the floor as floors shrink and settle. We seal them with a flexible sealant rather than caulk in a colour to suit.
What happens on the day
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like Bilting, 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 start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Advice
Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
New homes and floors in Bilting
Floors around Kent 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.
Community buildings like Church of St Lawrence are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. If you let a flat or house near Wye station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Bilting
I let a flat near Wye station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you cover Bilting for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Bilting is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
If you tell us beforehand, yes. Joints that will be painted get a paintable product and wet areas get silicone.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, wherever you are.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk works on still, dry joints, but it splits where the joint moves or gets wet. We use a flexible sealant for most skirting and floor joints.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Bilting, along with the rest of our area.
When it is not the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
- Movement too big for a sealant joint
- Leaks from a failed tanking system
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
