Floor joint sealing near Cranbrook Common

What the job involves on each 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

Concrete floors have sawn or formed joints to control cracking. They’re resealed with a product chosen for what runs over them.

Floor joint sealing in Cranbrook Common, done properly

A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We use a flexible product that suits both floors. We work on wet room & bathroom floors, thresholds and concrete floor joints, and common reasons people get in touch are open joints that fill with dirt and skirting caulk that keeps splitting.

Older homes in small places like Cranbrook Common often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.

You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

When it is not the sealant

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Structural movement or subsidence
  • Cracked or broken concrete slabs
  • Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we seal

  • Tiled floors
  • Commercial floors
  • Thresholds
  • Concrete floor joints
  • Wet room & bathroom floors
  • Skirting boards

Do you need floor joint sealing in Cranbrook Common?

When a tiled floor has no movement joints, the grout takes the strain. Cracks often run straight along a line of joints, showing where a movement joint was needed.

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

  • Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
  • Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
  • Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
  • Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints

If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of the Holy Trinity, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

What your quote should include

  • What the cure time is
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • How the colour is chosen
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint

10 questions to ask before you book

What floor joint sealing looks like in Cranbrook Common

Floors around Kent 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 Staplehurst station? Then a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. If you look after a building such as Cranbrook School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
  • Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
  • Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
  • Use furniture pads near skirting

Lift furniture rather than sliding it over sealed joints. Dragging can tear the bead.

A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and the edges sound.

What affects the cost of floor joint sealing

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:

  • How many areas need sealing
  • The size of the job
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The old material and how stubborn it is

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

What to tell us for a quote

You don’t need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:

  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • The rough size of the job
  • Photos by email, if that is easy

For a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the location and a short description of the problem. You’ll have a clear quote before we start.

What happens if it’s left?

Floor joints left open collect dirt that’s hard to clean out. A neat sealed joint is easier to clean. In a small place like Cranbrook Common, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.

What you get with us

  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
  • Sealant colour chosen to suit
  • A 12-month guarantee on all work

Questions from Cranbrook Common

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

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.

Do you cover Cranbrook Common for floor joint sealing?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Cranbrook Common is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.

Are you insured?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.

Can sealant along the skirting be painted?

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.

Is it worth trying it myself?

You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.

Is there any odour?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Opening a window helps.

Where do you work from?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Cranbrook Common and the rest of Kent, along with the rest of our area.

What we do, step by step

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 few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. In a small place like Cranbrook Common, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
  2. We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
  3. The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
  4. A flexible sealant, or a floor-joint sealant for concrete, is applied in a colour to suit.
  5. We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
