About our floor joint sealing in Stapleford
Thresholds are where two floors, or a floor and a door, meet. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side so the joint stays neat. If you have gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and chipped and open joints in warehouse floors, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Stapleford, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Stapleford
Floors around Hertfordshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For buildings such as Church of St Mary the Virgin, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Managing a site like Stapleford Primary School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. Rented homes near Watton-At-Stone station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Leave it or put it right?
Dirt builds up in open joints. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean and look tidier. Older cottages and farmhouses around Stapleford can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts.

What affects the quote in Stapleford
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

- Any mould that needs treating
- Working hours on commercial sites
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will talk you through it.
Helping us quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Whether it has been sealed before

- How we’d reach the joints
Every job is quoted individually. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job, and photos are welcome.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Questions from Stapleford
Do you cover smaller places like Stapleford?
Yes, Stapleford is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you do floor joint sealing in Stapleford?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Stapleford is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
How long will you be here?
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.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, it will not last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
If you tell us beforehand, yes. We use a paintable flexible sealant on joints you plan to paint.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Look at floor joints each spring
Do not paint over silicone. If you plan to paint, we will use a paintable product.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner.
What sealant work can’t fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
