Floor joint sealing in Minster, done properly
In commercial and industrial units, concrete floor joints take a hammering from wheels and traffic. Each is resealed with a floor-joint product suited to what runs over it. We work on commercial floors, concrete floor joints and tiled floors, and people most often call us about caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and failed joint filler in concrete floors.
Older homes in small places like Minster 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, large or small.

What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
- Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
- Large cracks that need a surveyor
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Skirting boards
- Commercial floors
- Concrete floor joints
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Tiled floors
- Thresholds
When to call us in Minster
An open floor joint fills with dirt and water. In kitchens and bathrooms, mop water gets into the gap.
The most common problems we see are:
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
Schools such as Minster Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

Minster: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Minster?
Yes. Minster 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.
Is Minster in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Minster is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Generally, yes. A crack along a grout line often means the floor needs room to move. We replace that grout with a flexible joint.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will tell you what we’re using.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything isn’t right with the work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Don’t paint over silicone
- Look at floor joints each spring
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and stops it getting worse.
What the job involves on each surface
Tiled floors
A crack running along a grout line is often a sign of a missing movement joint. We rake out that line and seal it where it suits the floor.
Commercial floors
In commercial buildings, we can plan floor joint work around opening hours. We can arrange out-of-hours work if the floor is busy.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Minster
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Minster and across Kent. Several sites can be quoted together.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Minster 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.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Getting ready for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us about any water getting in
