Floor joint sealing in Little Ickford, done properly
Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone because it handles water. Common call-outs are for failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels and tiled floors with no room to move, on wet room & bathroom floors, thresholds and skirting boards.
Older homes in small places like Little Ickford often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Don’t paint over silicone
- Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
Do not paint over silicone. If you plan to paint, we will use a paintable product.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. Adding a movement joint early can stop cracks spreading to the tiles.
Leave it or put it right?
The right product depends on the floor and the traffic: skirting and tiled floors need flexibility, wet areas need water resistance and concrete needs a product suited to wheels. Getting that choice wrong is a common reason joints fail. Around Little Ickford, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first.

Common questions in Little Ickford
Can you do floor joint sealing in Little Ickford?
Yes, Little Ickford is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
I let a flat near Haddenham & Thame Parkway station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
In many cases, yes. We replace the grout along a suitable line with flexible sealant. If tiles are loose, that needs fixing first.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
It’s normally the floor moving: timber drying in winter, floors settling, or caulk that can’t stretch. A flexible bead keeps up with the movement.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Can you reseal concrete floor joints in an industrial unit?
Yes. We reseal concrete floor joints in commercial and industrial units. The product is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Little Ickford
An open floor joint fills with dirt and water. In kitchens and bathrooms, mop water gets into the gap.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
If you look after a building such as Ickford School, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.
What to look for in a quote
- How much experience the applicator has
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- What happens if the job turns out different
- When the joint can take water or movement
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
How we quote for floor joint sealing
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any mould that needs treating
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
