Floor joint sealing in Lunsford's Cross

Gaps along the bottom of skirting are common in new and older homes alike. Caulk tends to crack there, so we close it with a flexible sealant instead. If you are dealing with floor edges that trap water and grime and rigid edge joints in tiled floors, we can help, on commercial floors, tiled floors and wet room & bathroom floors alike.

Around Lunsford's Cross, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Questions from Lunsford's Cross

I let a flat near Collington station. Can you help?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Do you cover Lunsford's Cross for floor joint sealing?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Lunsford's Cross is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.

How much does floor joint sealing cost in Lunsford's Cross?

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Which products do you use?

The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

Can I choose the sealant colour?

We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.

Are you insured?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.

When to call us in Lunsford's Cross

When a tiled floor has no movement joints, the grout takes the strain. Cracks often run straight along a line of joints, showing where a movement joint was needed.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
  • Gaps at thresholds between rooms
  • Concrete floor joints that have broken down
  • Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant

Rented homes near Collington station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

What your quote should include

  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • When the joint can take water or movement

Our hiring checklist

What floor joint sealing looks like in Lunsford's Cross

Across East Sussex, 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.

If you look after a building such as Ninfield Church of England Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

How the visit works

Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. In a small place like Lunsford's Cross, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
  2. Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
  3. We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
  4. We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
  5. The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

When something else is needed

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Concrete repairs beyond the joint
  • Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
  • Large cracks that need a surveyor

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Where we work in Lunsford's Cross

  • Concrete floor joints
  • Commercial floors
  • Wet room & bathroom floors
  • Tiled floors
  • Thresholds
  • Skirting boards

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Avoid sloshing water against skirting
  • Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
  • Look at floor joints each spring
  • Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured

Lift furniture rather than sliding it over sealed joints. Sharp edges can cut the sealant.

Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Sealing them early protects the edges and the floor safer.

Why it’s worth doing now in Lunsford's Cross

Regrouting a cracked line in a tiled floor rarely fixes it. If the floor needs to move there, the grout will crack again. Replacing that line with flexible sealant gives it somewhere to go. Around Lunsford's Cross, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before any work starts.

Why us?

  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
  • We leave the area clean and tidy
  • We agree the colour with you first
  • Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants

Can I do it myself?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
