About our floor joint sealing in Old Heath
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is normally the better choice, which isn’t made to be painted. Typical jobs include gaps opening between the floor and skirting and perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout, across tiled floors, commercial floors and wet room & bathroom floors.
Homes around Old Heath range from older cottages to newer houses, and their floors range just as widely, each moving in its own way. Skirting and threshold joints need a sealant that suits the floor.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

When to call us in Old Heath
Wheels crossing an unfilled concrete joint chip its edges. Pallet trucks and trolleys knock the edges away until the joint widens.
People normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
Rented homes near Hythe station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Old Heath
Is Old Heath within the area you cover?
Yes. Old Heath 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.
Do you work for landlords with property near Hythe station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. Where a floor meets a bath panel, kitchen plinth or skirting in a wet area, we use a flexible silicone so water can’t get into the gap.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Because caulk cracks where there’s movement or water. Skirting joints move with the floor, so we use a flexible sealant that stretches.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What information do you need?

How long will you be here?
Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.

Joints and finishes in Old Heath homes
Across Essex, 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.
Community buildings like St Barnabas are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Old Heath Community Primary School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.

Surface by surface
Thresholds
Threshold joints get a lot of feet, so the sealant has to be tough as well as flexible.
Commercial floors
Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. We talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Light foot traffic is usually fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels, and we will tell you both.
A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and stops it getting worse.
