Questions from West Drayton
Do you cover West Drayton for floor joint sealing?
Yes, West Drayton is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is parking a problem for a job in West Drayton?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we are fully insured too.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Usually it’s movement: timber drying in winter, floors settling, or caulk that cannot stretch. A flexible sealant stays closed as the floor moves.
Why not just use caulk?
Caulk works on still, dry joints, but it cracks where there’s movement or water. For most floor joints, we use a flexible sealant.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes, where it suits the floor. The grout is raked out and replaced with a flexible sealant in a colour to suit.
Floor joint sealing in West Drayton
Every floor moves a little, so its edges need a joint that can flex. Skirting-to-floor gaps, tiled floor joints and concrete joints are all sealed. We are often asked to deal with concrete floor joints that have broken down and gaps at thresholds between rooms, on commercial floors, wet room & bathroom floors and skirting boards.
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments. Snagging there often goes through the developer or managing agent, and failed shower seals, open skirting joints and gaps at thresholds are typical.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Keep dirt out of the joints
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Light foot traffic is generally fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen.
Landlords, agents and businesses in West Drayton
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Landlords and letting agents in West Drayton can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Other services in West Drayton
Leave it or put it right?
Left open, concrete joints break down under traffic. Resealing it early protects the edges and keeps the damage down. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in West Drayton, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

How the job changes by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Floor joints in bathrooms take water every day. We seal them with anti-fungal sanitary silicone that keeps water out.
Thresholds
A threshold is where floors and frames meet. A flexible sealant suits both floor finishes.
When something else is needed
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Thresholds
- Skirting boards
- Wet room & bathroom floors

New homes and floors in West Drayton
Floors around Greater London 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. Many of London’s new homes are flats in bigger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent.
Schools such as West Drayton Academy are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. As a London address, West Drayton can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

Do you need floor joint sealing in West Drayton?
Decorators’ caulk is often used along skirting because it’s cheap and paintable. In a joint that moves or gets wet, it splits so the gap reappears.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Martin, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

What happens on the day
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint for a typical job. In a London area like West Drayton, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
