Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Addiewell
In commercial and industrial units, concrete floor joints take a hammering from wheels and traffic. Each is resealed with a floor-joint product suited to what runs over it. If you are dealing with threshold joints that have opened or worn and open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards, we can put it right, on commercial floors, skirting boards and tiled floors alike.
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and it settles over the first years, which shows as gaps at skirtings and floor joints. In older homes, timber floors move through the year too.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Joints and finishes in Addiewell homes
Across West Lothian, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.
Rented homes near Addiewell station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Leave it or put it right?
Putting new grout into a crack that keeps reappearing doesn’t last. If the floor needs to move there, the grout will crack again. Replacing that line with flexible sealant gives it somewhere to go. In an older home around Addiewell, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.

Different surfaces, different methods
Tiled floors
Tiled floors need movement joints at edges and across large areas. Where needed, a line of grout is replaced with flexible sealant in a matching colour.
Skirting boards
Skirting pulls away from the floor as floors shrink and settle. We seal them with a flexible sealant rather than caulk.

Questions from Addiewell
Do you cover smaller places like Addiewell?
Yes. Addiewell is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is Addiewell in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Addiewell is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk is fine for dry joints that do not move, but it splits where the joint moves or gets wet. We use a flexible sealant for most skirting and floor joints.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Addiewell.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. These joints get wet every time the floor is cleaned, so a flexible silicone is the right choice.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
When to call us in Addiewell
Concrete floor joints break down when traffic runs over open or failed joints. Pallet trucks and trolleys knock the edges away.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
Around Addiewell, as everywhere, floor joint sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
