Floor joint sealing in Eddington, done properly
We seal floor joints in homes, offices and commercial buildings across Eddington. We start by checking the floor type and the joint, because the right sealant depends on both. If you have caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
For a small place like Eddington, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Honest limits
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor
- Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Thresholds
- Skirting boards
- Concrete floor joints
- Tiled floors
- Commercial floors
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
Lift furniture rather than sliding it over sealed joints. Sharp edges can cut the sealant especially in the first few days.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact and the surface smoother.
What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. In a small place like Eddington, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

- How much there is to do
- The product the joint needs
- How easy the joints are to reach
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

How the job changes by surface
Skirting boards
Skirting-to-floor joints are a regular job for us. We take out any cracked caulk before sealing so the bead sits on a clean surface.
Commercial floors
Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Your questions about floor joint sealing in Eddington
Do you cover Eddington for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Eddington is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Do you cover smaller places like Eddington?
Yes, Eddington is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Normally it’s movement: heating drying the timber, or a filler that’s too rigid. A flexible bead keeps up with the movement.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
It depends on the sealant, so let us know first. We use a paintable flexible sealant on joints you plan to paint, and silicone elsewhere.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Leave it or put it right?
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. It’s a quick job to seal them now for most homes. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Eddington, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

Across West Berkshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you look after a building such as Hungerford Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Hungerford Methodist Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

DIY versus a professional finish
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.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
