Surface by surface
Tiled floors
Tiled floors need movement joints at edges and across large areas. Where needed, a line of grout is replaced with flexible sealant in a matching colour.
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.
Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Silver Hill
Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone because it handles water. We work on commercial floors, concrete floor joints and thresholds, and people most often call us about open joints that fill with dirt and grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant.
Around Silver Hill, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee.

What sealant work can’t fix
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Commercial floors
- Tiled floors
- Thresholds
- Concrete floor joints
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Skirting boards
Leave it or put it right?
Putting new grout into a crack that keeps reappearing does not last. The movement is still there, so the grout fails again. Replacing that line with flexible sealant gives it somewhere to go. In a small place like Silver Hill, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What you get with us
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Colour picked to suit the job
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- Fully insured

What we are called out for in Silver Hill
Caulk is the usual filler for skirting. In a joint that moves or gets wet, it splits.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
Community buildings like Holy Trinity are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
What your quote should include
- Which colour the sealant will be
- When the joint can take water or movement
- The length of the guarantee
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
Lift furniture rather than sliding it over sealed joints. Sharp edges can cut the sealant especially in the first few days.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen.
How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The visit itself usually takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Silver Hill, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any parking rules near the property

For landlords with property near Etchingham station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. Managing a site like Hurst Green Church of England Primary School and Nursery? Then entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

FAQs for Silver Hill
I let a flat near Etchingham station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Will you come out to Silver Hill?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Movement from drying timber and settling floors. Rigid fillers split, so we use a flexible sealant.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we’re fully insured too.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Often, 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.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
