How we handle floor joint sealing in Marsh Baldon
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 work on skirting boards, tiled floors and concrete floor joints, and people most often call us about failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels and perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout.
Somewhere as small as Marsh Baldon, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What happens on the day
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. For a village or hamlet like Marsh Baldon, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Different surfaces, different methods
Concrete floor joints
Sawn joints in concrete floors control where it cracks. They’re resealed with a product chosen for what runs over them.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A neat silicone joint keeps it out.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Common problems we fix in Marsh Baldon
Grout is rigid, so a tiled floor with nowhere to move cracks along a grout line. You’ll see a crack running along the grout, showing where a movement joint was needed.
The problems people normally mention when they call include:
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
Community buildings like Church of St Peter are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Where is Mr Mastic based?
We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and we’ll quote it together.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes, at the edges and along suitable lines. We remove the grout and seal the line with flexible sealant, giving the floor room to move.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk works on still, dry joints, but it splits where the joint moves or gets wet. We use a flexible sealant for most skirting and floor joints.
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
Lift furniture rather than sliding it over sealed joints. Sharp edges can cut the sealant especially in the first few days.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and the edges sound.

Why deal with it now?
Left open, concrete joints break down under traffic. A sealed joint supports the edges. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Marsh Baldon, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Across Oxfordshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.

Schools such as Marsh Baldon Church of England Controlled School are buildings too, and floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
