Floor joint sealing in Fittleworth, done properly
Thresholds are where two floors, or a floor and a door, meet. We use a flexible product that suits both floors so the joint stays neat. If you have failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels and cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint, we can help, on thresholds, skirting boards and wet room & bathroom floors alike.
In a village or hamlet like Fittleworth, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

FAQs for Fittleworth
Will you come out to Fittleworth?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
I let a flat near Pulborough station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
Where you plan to paint, we do. Silicone doesn’t take paint, so tell us your plans.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Often, yes, at the edges and along suitable lines. The grout is raked out and replaced with a flexible sealant in a colour to suit, giving the floor room to move.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll explain our choice.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Movement too big for a sealant joint
- Concrete repairs beyond the joint
- Leaks from a failed tanking system
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal

How the visit works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can get on with your day. The job usually takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Somewhere as small as Fittleworth, 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.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor and smooth it.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Why it’s worth doing now in Fittleworth
Dirt builds up in open joints and makes the floor look worn. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean. Older cottages and farmhouses around Fittleworth can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
When to call us in Fittleworth
Decorators’ caulk is often used along skirting because it’s cheap and paintable. It cracks where there’s movement or water, which is why so many skirting joints look broken.
The most common problems we see are:
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
Rented homes near Pulborough station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

- Whether you can choose the colour

Floor joint sealing in Fittleworth: local notes
Floors around West 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Fittleworth CofE Village School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. For buildings such as The Parish Church of St Mary, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
