Floor joint sealing in Plaistow Green, done properly
Good floor joints come down to the right product and clean, prepared edges. We remove what’s there first, then clean, back and seal the joint. We’re often asked to deal with open joints around bathroom floor edges and perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout, on commercial floors, skirting boards and thresholds.
Somewhere as small as Plaistow Green, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Why deal with it now?
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. In a small place like Plaistow Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why us?
- Over 20 years’ experience
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme

How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Keeping the edges drier helps the sealant last longer.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and stops it getting worse.
How the job changes by surface
Commercial floors
Washroom and kitchen floors in commercial buildings need sound edge joints. We reseal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
Thresholds
Thresholds take daily traffic, so the sealant has to be tough as well as flexible and tool it flush.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Plaistow Green
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open, then close again in damper months.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
Rented homes near Ascot station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Plaistow Green
Floors around Windsor and Maidenhead run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Schools such as Cranbourne Primary School 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 Peter, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
Why not just use caulk?
Caulk is fine for dry joints that don’t move, but it cracks where there’s movement or water. For most floor joints, we use a flexible sealant.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
You will get the times before we go. That depends on the product, and walking on it normally comes before mopping or wheeled traffic.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, always. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months, wherever you are.

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
