DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.
Joints and finishes in Burwash Weald homes
Across East Sussex, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.

What affects the quote in Burwash Weald
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- The number and length of the joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The product the joint needs
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Roughly how big the job is
- If someone has resealed it before
- How we’d reach the joints
- What’s wrong with the joints now
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Why deal with it now?
Caulk is quick and cheap, but it cracks where the joint moves or gets wet, so the gap reappears. A flexible sealant moves with the floor and keeps the joint sealed. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Burwash Weald, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

FAQs for Burwash Weald
Is Burwash Weald within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
I let a flat near Stonegate station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Where do you work from?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Burwash Weald and the rest of East Sussex.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. Floor edges in bathrooms and kitchens get wet at every clean, so we seal them with silicone suited to wet areas.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we are done.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
That varies with the sealant and the room. We give you the times for walking, cleaning and traffic when we finish.
What the job involves on each surface
Skirting boards
If the skirting is painted, a paintable flexible sealant works well. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is generally better.
Thresholds
Thresholds between rooms meet two floors and often a door frame. A flexible sealant suits both floor finishes.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
Avoid flooding the floor when you clean. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact and the floor safer.
The process
There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes for a typical job. In a small place like Burwash Weald, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Advice
Common problems we fix in Burwash Weald
Some floors were never given a perimeter gap or movement joint. It pushes against the walls and skirting as it expands.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
Community buildings like St Philip's Church are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
