About our floor joint sealing in Godstow
Good floor joints come down to the right product and clean, prepared edges. We remove what’s there first, the joint is cleaned and backed where needed, then the new sealant goes in. If you’re dealing with gaps opening between the floor and skirting and open joints around bathroom floor edges, we can put it right, on wet room & bathroom floors, tiled floors and concrete floor joints alike.
Somewhere as small as Godstow, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

How the job changes by surface
Commercial floors
Shops, offices, warehouses and units all have floor joints that need sealing. We talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A flexible seal stops water running into the gap.
Leave it or put it right?
Regrouting a cracked line in a tiled floor rarely fixes it. The movement is still there, so the grout fails again. A flexible movement joint is the fix. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Godstow, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Across Oxfordshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Community buildings like Church of All Saints are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. If you let a flat or house near Oxford Parkway station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

How the visit works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Somewhere as small as Godstow, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
Avoid flooding the floor when you clean. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and stops it getting worse.
For landlords and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Will you come out to Godstow?

Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking like caulk.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Common problems we fix in Godstow
Decorators’ caulk is often used along skirting because it’s cheap and paintable. It cracks where there’s movement or water.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
If you look after a building such as Wolvercote Primary School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.
What your quote should include
- What the cure time is
- Which colour the sealant will be
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether VAT is included
