Floor joint sealing in Etchingham
Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. We seal them with a flexible, water-resistant sealant so water and dirt cannot get in. We work on concrete floor joints, wet room & bathroom floors and tiled floors, and people most often call us about open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards and grout cracking in a straight line across a floor.
Somewhere as small as Etchingham, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we have gone.

Floor joint sealing in Etchingham: local notes
Floors around East Sussex run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as The Parish Church of St Nicholas and St Mary, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. If you let a flat or house near Etchingham station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Common problems we fix in Etchingham
New floors settle once they’re in use. The edges pull away from the skirting.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Etchingham Church of England Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Etchingham questions
Do you cover Etchingham for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Etchingham is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
I let a flat near Etchingham station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. We cut out any old sealant or caulk and reseal with flexible silicone in a colour to suit.
Is there any odour?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
You will get the times before we go. It depends on the sealant, and walking on it normally comes before mopping or wheeled traffic.
Why not just use caulk?
Caulk can’t cope with movement or water. Skirting joints move with the floor, so a flexible sealant suits them better.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
What the job involves on each surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
In a wet room, the floor-to-wall joint is a key line of defence. We reseal it with a flexible silicone suited to wet areas.
Tiled floors
Tiled floors need movement joints at edges and across large areas. Where needed, a line of grout is replaced with flexible sealant in a matching colour.
How the visit works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Somewhere as small as Etchingham, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and smooth it.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Let us know about parking restrictions
