Floor joint sealing in Oxford

About our floor joint sealing in Oxford

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. We are often asked to deal with dirt and water collecting in open floor joints and concrete floor joints that have broken down, on thresholds, concrete floor joints and commercial floors.

Oxford has plenty of estates from recent decades, where the original builder’s sealant around baths, frames and skirtings may be past its best. We work for developers on plot mastic and for owners on snagging.

Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Oxford and across Oxfordshire.

Leave it or put it right?

Floor joints left open collect dirt that’s hard to clean out. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean. In a large rental market like Oxford, tired sealant leads to tenant complaints about mould, damp and leaks. It’s simpler to sort between tenants than in the middle of a let.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What you get with us

  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
  • 180+ five-star Google reviews
  • White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
  • A 12-month guarantee on all work

Oxford: your questions answered

Do you cover Oxford for floor joint sealing?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Oxford is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.

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

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.

Are you insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured.

How long does floor joint sealing take?

That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. We will tell you when we quote.

My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?

Often, yes. We replace the grout along a suitable line with flexible sealant in a matching colour. If tiles are loose, that needs fixing first.

Where do you work from?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Oxford, along with the rest of our area.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

Do the sealants smell?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.

How we quote for floor joint sealing

We do not publish a price list. The quote depends on:

  • How many areas need sealing
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • The type of sealant required
  • Access and height

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

What we need to know

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • The type of property

We quote each job on its own. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and describe the job, and pictures are welcome.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Oxford

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will give you a quote.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

How the job changes by surface

Wet room and bathroom floors

In a wet room, the floor-to-wall joint is a key line of defence. We reseal it with a flexible silicone suited to wet areas and we will say if the problem looks like more than the joint.

Tiled floors

The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. We rake out any grout there and reseal.

When to call us in Oxford

Caulk is the usual filler for skirting. It cracks where there’s movement or water.

The problems people normally mention when they call are:

  • Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
  • Open joints around bathroom floor edges
  • Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
  • Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as East Oxford Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

Before you book anyone

  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • Are they insured?
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • What the cure time is

Our hiring checklist

DIY versus a professional finish

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Floor joint sealing in Oxford: local notes

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. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.

Letting a property close to Oxford station? Then open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Clement's Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

What happens on the day

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors and we leave things clean and tidy. Jobs in a place the size of Oxford range from town-centre flats to offices and family homes. For each, it helps to know about access, parking and where the joints are.

  1. We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
  2. Old material is removed from the joint.
  3. Edges are cleaned and dried.
  4. A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and tooled.
  5. Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
