About our floor joint sealing in Whitchurch-on-Thames

In commercial and industrial units, concrete floor joints take a hammering from wheels and traffic. We reseal them with a product chosen for the movement and the traffic. If you have gaps at thresholds between rooms and gaps opening between the floor and skirting, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Around Whitchurch-on-Thames, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Whitchurch-on-Thames and across Oxfordshire.

Landlord and commercial work in Whitchurch-on-Thames

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

When it isn’t the sealant

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
  • Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
  • Large cracks that need a surveyor

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Thresholds
  • Concrete floor joints
  • Tiled floors
  • Wet room & bathroom floors
  • Skirting boards
  • Commercial floors

Surface by surface

Thresholds

Threshold joints get a lot of feet, so the sealant has to be tough as well as flexible and tool it flush.

Wet room and bathroom floors

Wet room floors rely on sound joints at the walls. We reseal it with a flexible silicone suited to wet areas, and we will tell you if the leak seems to come from elsewhere.

Aftercare tips

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Avoid sloshing water against skirting
  • Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
  • Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
  • Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up

Check the joints after the first winter. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up before they spread.

Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. A sound seal stops that happening.

What we do, step by step

When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Somewhere as small as Whitchurch-on-Thames, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
  2. Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
  3. We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
  4. We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
  5. We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice

What floor joint sealing looks like in Whitchurch-on-Thames

Across Oxfordshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.

Managing a site like Whitchurch Primary School? Then entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. For landlords with property near Pangbourne station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Church of St Mary, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Do you cover smaller places like Whitchurch-on-Thames?

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Whitchurch-on-Thames, along with the rest of our area.

Can sealant along the skirting be painted?

Where the skirting will be painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. Silicone won’t take paint, so we use it where the joint stays unpainted.

Will there be a smell?

That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?

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.

Should I try it myself first?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

What affects the quote in Whitchurch-on-Thames

The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • The size of the job
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Whether the work is at height

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Roughly how big the job is

Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work.
