Vernham Dean Floor Joint Sealing
Floor joints in Vernham Dean need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant.
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
Have a look at the joints once the heating season is over. If anything has opened, it’s easy to reseal before they spread.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.
What happens if it’s left?
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Sealing them now keeps the problem at the surface. Older cottages and farmhouses around Vernham Dean can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

The process
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes, including the tidy-up. In a small place like Vernham Dean, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any tricky access
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Floor joint sealing around Vernham Dean
Floors around Hampshire 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.
Schools such as Vernham Dean Gillum's Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Common problems we fix in Vernham Dean
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Mary, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Vernham Dean questions
Will you come out to Vernham Dean?
Yes, Vernham Dean is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is floor joint sealing in Vernham Dean guaranteed?
All our work, in Vernham Dean and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Why not just use caulk?
Not where the floor moves or gets wet. It splits once the floor shifts, so the gap comes back. A flexible sealant lasts longer there.
How much does floor joint sealing cost in Vernham Dean?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
On joints you want to paint, yes. Silicone in bathrooms and kitchens can’t be painted.
