Floor joint sealing in Norton
Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. A flexible silicone seal keeps it out so water and dirt cannot get in. Common call-outs are for open joints that fill with dirt and skirting that has pulled away from the floor, on concrete floor joints, thresholds and skirting boards.
Around Norton, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What else we do in Norton
Different surfaces, different methods
Concrete floor joints
We clean concrete joints out thoroughly before sealing first. We fit backing where needed.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Mop water gets into any open joint at the edge of a bathroom floor. A flexible seal stops water running into the gap.
When it is not the sealant
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor
- Movement too big for a sealant joint
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Will you come out to Norton?
Yes. Norton is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
If you tell us beforehand, yes. We use a paintable flexible sealant on joints you plan to paint.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Generally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we will agree it with you first.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it in a colour to suit.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.

Floor joint sealing in Norton: local notes
Across East Sussex, 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. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you let a flat or house near Bishopstone (Sussex) station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. Schools such as UTC@Harbourside are buildings too, and floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Andrew, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Cone off the area if needed until it’s ready.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and the edges sound.
What we do, step by step
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself usually takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint, depending on the size of the job.

What happens if it’s left?
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. It’s a quick job to seal them now for most homes. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Norton, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
