Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Highsted
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We use a flexible product that suits both floors. We work on concrete floor joints, tiled floors and wet room & bathroom floors, and people most often call us about cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint and open joints around bathroom floor edges.
Somewhere as small as Highsted, 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.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

When to call us in Highsted
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. The edges pull away from the skirting, and rigid fillers crack.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
Managing a site like Rodmersham School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Different surfaces, different methods
Concrete floor joints
Open concrete joints chip at the edges when wheels cross them. Sealing them supports the edges and stops debris collecting.
Skirting boards
If the skirting is painted, a paintable flexible sealant works well. Where water is involved, silicone is the better choice.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can be quoted together.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will quote.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- Tiles that have lifted or broken
- Structural movement or subsidence

Common questions in Highsted
Do you work for landlords with property near Sittingbourne station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover Highsted for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Highsted is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Highsted and the rest of Kent.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we are done.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes, where it suits the floor. We remove the grout and seal the line with flexible sealant, giving the floor room to move.
How we quote for floor joint sealing
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- Any mould that needs treating
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Whether the work is at height
- The product the joint needs
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
What we need to know
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and describe the job, and photos are welcome.
The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours, depending on the length of joint, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Somewhere like Highsted needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- A flexible sealant, or a floor-joint sealant for concrete, is applied in a colour to suit.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice
Joints and finishes in Highsted 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. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Nicholas, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Rented homes near Sittingbourne station change hands often, and a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

Why act early in Highsted
Not every floor joint takes the same sealant: skirting and tiled floors need flexibility, wet areas need water resistance and concrete needs a product suited to wheels. Using the wrong one is why many floor joints fail. Around Highsted, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
