About our floor joint sealing in Rodmell
We seal floor joints in homes, offices and commercial buildings across Rodmell. Each job starts with looking at the floor and the gap, since that decides which sealant suits. Common call-outs are for floor edges that trap water and grime and failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels, across commercial floors, concrete floor joints and wet room & bathroom floors.
Somewhere as small as Rodmell, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Somewhere as small as Rodmell, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Preparing for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Related advice
Rodmell: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Southease station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you cover Rodmell for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Rodmell is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
A typical job takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
Follow the cure time we give you. Light use comes first, cleaning and heavy traffic later in most cases.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
In many cases, yes. Where a floor needs one, we rake out grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant. If tiles are loose, that needs fixing first.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before any work starts.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we’re fully insured.
How the job changes by surface
Commercial floors
Floor joint work in businesses can be planned around your hours. Out-of-hours working can be arranged where it’s needed.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Wet room floors rely on sound joints at the walls. We reseal it with a flexible silicone suited to wet areas and we’ll say if the problem looks like more than the joint.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Feet are generally fine before mopping or wheeled traffic, and we will tell you both.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. Resealing early keeps it out.
What happens if it’s left?
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Rodmell, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

New homes and floors in Rodmell
Across East Sussex, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For landlords with property near Southease station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. For buildings such as St Peter's Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Managing a site like Priory School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.
