About our floor joint sealing in Cholsey

Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is usually the better choice because it handles water. We work on commercial floors, wet room & bathroom floors and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant and threshold joints that have opened or worn.

For a new home in or near Cholsey, it’s worth checking the sealant early. Common snags include open skirting joints, lifting shower seals and gaps around frames.

Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Surface by surface

Commercial floors

Washroom and kitchen floors in commercial buildings need sound edge joints. We reseal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.

Concrete floor joints

Old filler, dust and debris are cleaned out of the joint, vacuuming them clean. We fit backing where needed.

What we are called out for in Cholsey

An open floor joint fills with dirt and water. In wet areas, water runs into the gap at every clean.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Failed joint filler in concrete floors
  • Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
  • Gaps at thresholds between rooms
  • Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor

For buildings such as Church of St Mary, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • What insurance they hold
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Whether VAT is included

Joints and finishes in Cholsey homes

Floors around Oxfordshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.

Letting a property close to Cholsey station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Cholsey Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Cholsey

I let a flat near Cholsey station. Can you help?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Do you cover Cholsey for floor joint sealing?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Cholsey is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Do I need to be at home?

We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Will I be able to paint over the new joint?

On joints you want to paint, yes. Silicone in bathrooms and kitchens cannot be painted.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.

What sealant do you use?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.

How long does floor joint sealing take?

Most jobs take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

Is caulk good enough for skirting?

Because caulk cracks where there’s movement or water. Floor edges move through the year, so a flexible sealant suits them better.

DIY versus a professional finish

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

How to look after the new joints

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Avoid sloshing water against skirting
  • Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
  • Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
  • Don’t fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet

Avoid flooding the floor when you clean. Keeping the edges drier helps the sealant last longer.

Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Sealing them early protects the edges and the surface smoother.

What we do, step by step

Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Parking around Cholsey is usually easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
  2. We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
  3. Edges are cleaned and dried.
  4. We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor and smooth it.
  5. We check the joints and explain the aftercare.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
