Floor & skirting joints in Chatham Waterfront, Medway
Our applicators work in Chatham Waterfront on sealing skirting-to-floor joints, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly.

- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
How the visit works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. A visit to Chatham Waterfront is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Move anything stored near the joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Chatham Waterfront
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We use a flexible product that suits both floors. If you are dealing with rigid edge joints in tiled floors and failed joint filler in concrete floors, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
For a new home in or near Chatham Waterfront, it’s worth checking the sealant early. Gaps at skirtings, shower seals pulling away and missing mastic around frames are common snags.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

When something else is needed
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Concrete repairs beyond the joint
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Leaks from a failed tanking system
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Where we work in Chatham Waterfront
- Tiled floors
- Concrete floor joints
- Skirting boards
- Commercial floors
- Thresholds
- Wet room & bathroom floors
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Cone off the area if needed until it’s ready.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.
FAQs for Chatham Waterfront
Do you cover smaller places like Chatham Waterfront?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you cover Chatham Waterfront for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Chatham Waterfront is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Floors shrink and settle, especially in the first year or two and through the heating season. Rigid fillers split, so we use a flexible sealant.
Do you use a paintable sealant?
Where the skirting will be painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Silicone will not take paint, so we use it where the joint stays unpainted.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, it will not last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
How do I get a quote for floor joint sealing in Chatham Waterfront?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
What happens if it’s left?
Dirt builds up in open joints. A neat sealed joint is easier to clean and finishes the floor. Homes in smaller places like Chatham Waterfront can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Rather than a set price list, 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.

Different surfaces, different methods
Thresholds
Where a tiled floor meets timber or carpet, the joint takes movement from both sides. A flexible sealant bridges them.
Concrete floor joints
Sawn joints in concrete floors control where it cracks. We reseal them with a floor-joint product suited to the traffic.

Joints and finishes in Chatham Waterfront homes

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Brompton-Westbrook Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. For buildings such as Church of St John the Divine, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
