- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
Check the joints after the first winter. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up before they spread.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
About our floor joint sealing in The Valley
Large tiled floors, and those over underfloor heating, often need movement joints. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant coloured to suit the grout. Common call-outs are for open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards and floor edges that trap water and grime, on wet room & bathroom floors, skirting boards and thresholds.
In a village or hamlet like The Valley, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Is The Valley within the area you cover?
Yes, The Valley is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you match the sealant colour?

Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.

What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
When can I walk on the floor?
You will get the times before we go. That depends on the product, and light foot traffic is generally fine before wet cleaning or wheels.
Do you need floor joint sealing in The Valley?
An open floor joint fills with dirt and water. In wet areas, water runs into the gap at every clean.
Look out for any of the following:
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
Community buildings like Church of St Lawrence are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
What your quote should include
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What insurance they hold
- Who turns up on the day
- How hidden problems are handled
Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
When something else is needed
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor
- Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
