Floor joint sealing across Aberdeenshire: what to expect

A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side. We work on skirting boards, thresholds and tiled floors, and people most often call us about grout cracking in a straight line across a floor and skirting that has pulled away from the floor.

On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work usually takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes.

  1. The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
  2. Old material is removed from the joint.
  3. Edges are cleaned and dried.
  4. We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor.
  5. We check the joints and explain the aftercare.

Floor joint sealing across Aberdeenshire: local notes

Our floor joint sealing work across Aberdeenshire covers developers, homeowners and businesses, from Peterhead, Inverurie and Montrose to the quieter places in between. Every joint needs to allow for movement.

Homes in Scotland come with their own details: sash and case windows, harled walls and, in the towns and cities, tenement flats. We work across Scotland, including Aberdeenshire. Parts of Aberdeenshire are on or near the coast, where wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are hard on outside sealant. Walls facing the sea are generally the first to need attention.

Peterhead: Around Peterhead, as everywhere, floor joint sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it. For jobs in and around Peterhead, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

Why deal with it now?

Floor joints left open collect dirt that is hard to clean out and makes the floor look worn. A neat sealed joint is easier to clean.

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long to leave it before use
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared

Honest limits

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • A tiled floor that needs relaying
  • Large cracks that need a surveyor
  • Cracked or broken concrete slabs

What we are called out for in Aberdeenshire

Floors and walls move a little with the seasons. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
  • Concrete floor joints that have broken down
  • Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
  • Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant

How to look after the new joints

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Check skirting joints after the heating season
  • Ask before painting over a sealed joint
  • Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
  • Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints

Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.

Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further over time.

Aberdeenshire questions

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?

Only on dry joints that do not move. Caulk cracks as the floor moves, so the gap comes back. A flexible sealant lasts longer there.

Is there any odour?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.

Are you fully insured?

Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

Is it worth trying it myself?

That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
