Floor joint sealing in Forest Corner
In commercial and industrial units, concrete floor joints take a hammering from wheels and traffic. We reseal them with a product chosen for the movement and the traffic. If you are dealing with gaps at thresholds between rooms and gaps opening between the floor and skirting, we can help, on wet room & bathroom floors, tiled floors and concrete floor joints alike.
Older homes in small places like Forest Corner often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

How the job changes by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Mop water gets into any open joint at the edge of a bathroom floor. A neat silicone joint keeps it out.
Skirting boards
Skirting gaps are one of the most common floor joints we seal. We take out any cracked caulk before sealing.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Keeping the edges drier helps the sealant last longer.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and the edges sound.
What happens on the day
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint from start to finish. Somewhere as small as Forest Corner, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Move anything stored near the joints

How we quote for floor joint sealing
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- The number and length of the joints
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Whether the work is at height
- Any working-time requirements on site
The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- The type of property
- Whether it has been sealed before
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will come back to you with a quote.

For landlords and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together.
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
What we are called out for in Forest Corner
Decorators’ caulk is often used along skirting because it’s cheap and paintable. It cracks where there’s movement or water so the gap reappears.
People usually contact us after spotting something like this:
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
If you look after a building such as Poulner Infant School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

Joints and finishes in Forest Corner homes
Across Hampshire, 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.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St John the Baptist, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

When something else is needed
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- Structural movement or subsidence

FAQs for Forest Corner
Do you cover Forest Corner for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Forest Corner is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is Forest Corner within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Not where the floor moves or gets wet. Caulk cracks as the floor moves and the gap reopens. A flexible sealant is the better choice.
Will it make a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes. A crack along a grout line often means the floor needs room to move. We rake out that line and seal it with flexible sealant.
