Floor joint sealing in Hazelwood
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. We’re often asked to deal with skirting caulk that keeps splitting and open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards, on wet room & bathroom floors, thresholds and commercial floors.
Older homes in small places like Hazelwood often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Why act early in Hazelwood
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. It’s a quick job to seal them now for most homes. Around Hazelwood, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
Avoid flooding the floor when you clean. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and stops it getting worse.
Common problems we fix in Hazelwood
Caulk is the usual filler for skirting. In a joint that moves or gets wet, it splits so the gap reappears.
The most common problems we see are:
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
For landlords with property near Chelsfield station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. For a village or hamlet like Hazelwood, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Hazelwood: your questions answered
I let a flat near Chelsfield station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Hazelwood?
Yes. Hazelwood is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. Where a floor meets a bath panel, kitchen plinth or skirting in a wet area, we use a flexible silicone so water can’t get into the gap.
How long does the job take?
Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
When can I walk on the floor?
That varies with the sealant and the room. We give you the times for walking, cleaning and traffic when we finish so you can plan.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Hazelwood and the rest of Kent, along with the rest of our area.
DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Joints and finishes in Hazelwood homes
Across Kent, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Managing a site like Downe Primary School? Then entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. For buildings such as St Mary's Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
