How we handle floor joint sealing in Ardersier
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. We work on tiled floors, thresholds and commercial floors, and the jobs we see most are skirting that has pulled away from the floor and rigid edge joints in tiled floors.
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.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Common questions in Ardersier
Do you work for landlords with property near Inverness Airport station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Ardersier?
Yes. Ardersier 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.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking like caulk.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it in a colour to suit.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Caulk is fine for dry joints that do not move, but it cracks where there’s movement or water. For most floor joints, we use a flexible sealant.
Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
New homes and floors in Ardersier
Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles. Across Highland, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Rented homes near Inverness Airport station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Around Ardersier
The nearest railway station is Inverness Airport station, about 2.3 miles south. Nearby you’ll also find Highland Aviation Museum (2.1 miles south-west) and Chanonry of Ross (3.7 miles west). Green spaces nearby include Loch of the Clans and Fairy Glen.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
Lift furniture rather than sliding it over sealed joints. Dragging can tear the bead before it has fully cured.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further over time.
What affects the cost of floor joint sealing
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- How easy the joints are to reach

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.

Signs you need floor joint sealing in Ardersier
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open, then close again in damper months.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
In and around Ardersier, as anywhere, good floor joint sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
