What floor joint sealing looks like in The Brents
Floors around Kent run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Letting a property close to Faversham station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. Schools such as Davington Primary School are buildings too, and floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in The Brents

For a new home in or near The Brents, it’s worth checking the sealant early. Common snags include open skirting joints, lifting shower seals and gaps around frames.

For landlords and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can be quoted together, and we’re fully insured for the work.
Surface by surface
Thresholds
Thresholds between rooms meet two floors and often a door frame. We seal them with a flexible sealant that suits both sides.
Tiled floors
When grout cracks along a straight line, the floor is telling you it needs to move. That line is converted to a flexible joint if it’s in the right place.

How much does floor joint sealing cost in The Brents?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
We give you a cure time for each joint. Feet are usually fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels in most cases.
What should I tell you?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Do not paint over silicone
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
Do not paint over silicone. If you plan to paint, we’ll use a paintable product.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and the edges sound.
What happens if it’s left?
Waiting until the next redecoration can mean a winter of draughts and dirt in the gaps. It’s a quick job to seal them now for most homes. In an older home around The Brents, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

Signs you need floor joint sealing in The Brents
Grout is rigid, so a tiled floor with nowhere to move cracks along a grout line. Cracks often run straight along a line of joints, showing where a movement joint was needed.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
For buildings such as Faversham Parish Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
Questions to ask before you book
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether you can choose the colour
- What the cure time is
How we quote for floor joint sealing
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The type of sealant required
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- What’s wrong with the joints now
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
How it works
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. For a job in The Brents, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
