Floor Joint Sealing in Botolphs
Our applicators work in Botolphs on sealing skirting-to-floor joints, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly.
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
What we are called out for in Botolphs
New floors settle once they’re in use. The edges pull away from the skirting, and rigid fillers crack.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
If you look after a building such as Upper Beeding Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

How we handle floor joint sealing in Botolphs
In kitchens and bathrooms, the joint where the floor meets a bath panel, plinth or skirting takes mop water every day. A flexible silicone seal keeps it out so water and dirt cannot get in. We work on skirting boards, commercial floors and tiled floors, and people most often call us about concrete floor joints that have broken down and open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards.
Older homes in small places like Botolphs often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

How the job changes by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A flexible seal stops water running into the gap.
Tiled floors
Large or heated tiled floors need room to move. Where needed, a line of grout is replaced with flexible sealant coloured to suit.
Botolphs questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Shoreham-By-Sea station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Botolphs?
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. Feet are usually fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels in most cases.
Do you seal warehouse floor joints?

Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Botolphs and the rest of West Sussex, along with the rest of our area.
How much does floor joint sealing cost in Botolphs?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing and where.
Do you use a paintable sealant?
If you tell us beforehand, yes. Joints that will be painted get a paintable product and wet areas get silicone.

Related advice
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
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.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
Don’t paint over silicone. If you plan to paint, we will use a paintable product.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further.
When it isn’t the sealant
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
- Leaks from a failed tanking system
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
