Common questions in The Stocks
Do you cover The Stocks for floor joint sealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and The Stocks is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
That depends on how much there is to do, but most jobs take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we will agree it with you first.
Do you use a paintable sealant?
Where you plan to paint, we do. Silicone does not take paint.
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.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover The Stocks.
Why deal with it now?
Left open, concrete joints break down under traffic. A sealed joint supports the edges before they need a bigger repair. Around The Stocks, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
Why us?
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Fully insured
- We leave the area clean and tidy

Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Use furniture pads near skirting
Lift furniture rather than sliding it over sealed joints. Dragging can tear the bead especially in the first few days.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. Resealing early keeps it out.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Landlord and commercial work in The Stocks
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.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Do you need floor joint sealing in The Stocks?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons. Heating dries timber and opens gaps along the skirting.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
Letting a property close to Rye station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.
What to look for in a quote
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. In a small place like The Stocks, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Floor joint sealing in The Stocks: local notes
Floors around Kent 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.
Schools such as Wittersham Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. For buildings such as Parish Church of St John the Baptist, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
