Trusted floor joint sealing in Erith

Floor joint sealing in Erith, done properly

Floor joint sealing is mostly about choosing the right product and preparing the joint. We remove what’s there first, then clean, back and seal the joint. If you have dirt and water collecting in open floor joints and cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens, we can put it right, on thresholds, wet room & bathroom floors and commercial floors alike.

London homes range from new-build flats to period conversions with new floors laid over old boards. Every joint between floor, skirting and threshold has to cope with some movement.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Erith

Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

The process

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors, depending on the amount of work. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.

  1. The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
  2. Old material is removed from the joint.
  3. Edges are cleaned and dried.
  4. A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and smooth it.
  5. Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

What we’re called out for in Erith

A floor laid tight to the walls has no room to move. It pushes against the walls and skirting as it expands and joints fail.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Worn sealant at door thresholds
  • Concrete floor joints that have broken down
  • Open joints that fill with dirt
  • Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards

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

Before booking anyone

  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • Are they insured?
  • Is VAT in the price?

10 questions to ask before booking

When it is not the sealant

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:

  • Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
  • Tiles that have lifted or broken
  • Structural movement or subsidence

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

What we seal

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

Floor joint sealing in Erith: local notes

Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snagging may go through the developer or managing agent. Across Greater London, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.

Managing a site like Christ Church (Erith) CofE Primary School? Then entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. For landlords with property near Erith station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

FAQs for Erith

Do you work for landlords with property near Erith station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Is parking a problem for a job in Erith?

London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.

Where are you based?

We’re a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.

What information do you need?

Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.

Is there any odour?

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.

How soon can the floor be mopped?

We give you a cure time for each joint. Light use comes first, cleaning and heavy traffic later in most cases.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

What affects the quote in Erith

For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The type of sealant required
  • Any mould that needs treating

Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

What to tell us for a quote

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:

  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • Where the job is, and your postcode

It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Different surfaces, different methods

Tiled floors

The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. Grout at the edge is removed and replaced with sealant.

Thresholds

Two different floors meeting at a threshold move differently. We bridge them with a flexible bead.
