Joints and finishes in Sulhamstead homes
Floors around West Berkshire 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.
For buildings such as Church of St Peter, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. Letting a property close to Theale station? Then a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

Floor joint sealing in Sulhamstead, done properly
Good floor joints come down to the right product and clean, prepared edges. Old caulk, grout or failed sealant comes out first, the joint is cleaned and backed where needed, then the new sealant goes in. Typical jobs include gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant, on skirting boards, concrete floor joints and thresholds.
Work in a small place like Sulhamstead just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Landlord and commercial work in Sulhamstead
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

How the job changes by surface
Thresholds
Thresholds take daily traffic, so the sealant has to be tough as well as flexible.
Commercial floors
Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Somewhere like Sulhamstead needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- 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
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

What we can’t put right
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Leaks from a failed tanking system
- Structural movement or subsidence
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Concrete floor joints
- Skirting boards
- Thresholds
- Tiled floors
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Commercial floors
How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.
Sulhamstead questions
Is Sulhamstead in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Sulhamstead is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you work for landlords with property near Theale station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking like caulk.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we are fully insured too.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
We will tell you before we leave. It depends on the sealant, and walking on it usually comes before mopping or wheeled traffic.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Sulhamstead and the rest of West Berkshire.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
Where you plan to paint, we do. Silicone in bathrooms and kitchens can’t be painted so mention it when you get a quote.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
What we are called out for in Sulhamstead
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. The edges pull away from the skirting and anything rigid cracks.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
Managing a site like Sulhamstead and Ufton Nervet School? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
