Leave it or put it right?
The right product depends on the floor and the traffic: flexible sealant for skirting and tiles, silicone in wet areas, and floor-joint products for concrete. Getting that choice wrong is a common reason joints fail. Older cottages and farmhouses around Boxley can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

About our floor joint sealing in Boxley
Thresholds are where two floors, or a floor and a door, meet. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side in a colour to suit. If you are dealing with rigid edge joints in tiled floors and open joints around bathroom floor edges, we can help, whatever the surface.
Work in a small place like Boxley just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

What else we do in Boxley
Surface by surface
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.
Thresholds
Thresholds between rooms meet two floors and often a door frame. We seal them with a flexible sealant that suits both sides.
Joints and finishes in Boxley homes
Floors around Kent run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Schools such as Sandling Primary School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. If you let a flat or house near Maidstone East station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint for a typical job. Somewhere as small as Boxley, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor and smooth it.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
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.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Sealing them early protects the edges.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Boxley
When a tiled floor has no movement joints, the grout takes the strain. You will see a crack running along the grout, where a flexible joint should have been.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Mary's and All Saints Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
Before you book anyone
- How hidden problems are handled
- Is VAT in the price?
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Who turns up on the day
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
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.

Will you come out to Boxley?

Can you do floor joint sealing in Boxley?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Boxley is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Often, yes. Where a floor needs one, we rake out grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant coloured to suit. If tiles are loose, that needs fixing first.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
