  • Cracked or broken concrete slabs

About our floor joint sealing in Flete

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. We work on wet room & bathroom floors, tiled floors and commercial floors, and people most often call us about skirting caulk that keeps splitting and worn sealant at door thresholds.

Work in a small place like Flete just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

What the job involves on each surface

Skirting boards

Skirting pulls away from the floor as floors shrink and settle. We seal them with a flexible sealant rather than caulk painted or coloured to match.

Wet room and bathroom floors

Floor joints in bathrooms take water every day. We seal them with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

How the visit works

You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint in most cases. In a small place like Flete, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
  2. We remove what’s in the joint now.
  3. The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
  4. We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
  5. We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

What affects the cost of floor joint sealing

There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:

  • The type of sealant required
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • When we can work, for business premises

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first.

What to tell us for a quote

There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:

  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • The type of property
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

To get a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You’ll have a clear quote before work begins.

Landlord and commercial work in Flete

Landlords and letting agents in Flete can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured for the work.

DIY versus a professional finish

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

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.

What happens if it’s left?

The right product depends on the floor and the traffic: flexible sealant for skirting and tiles, silicone in wet areas, and floor-joint products for concrete. Getting that choice wrong is a common reason joints fail. In a small place like Flete, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Why book with us

  • Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
  • A choice of colours where the product allows
  • 20+ years of sealant experience
  • Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas

Floor joint sealing around Flete

Floors around Kent run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.

Schools such as St Gregory's Catholic Primary School are buildings too, and floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. If you let a flat or house near Margate station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. For buildings such as St. Catherine's Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Flete questions

Do you work for landlords with property near Margate station?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.

Is Flete in your area for floor joint sealing?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Flete is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.

Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?

Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking like caulk.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We’re based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

What does floor joint sealing cost?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before we start.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We are fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.

Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?

Only on dry joints that do not move. It splits once the floor shifts. A flexible sealant is the better choice.

Which products do you use?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
