Floor joint sealing across Highland: what to expect

Across Highland, we seal floor and skirting joints in homes and businesses. We start by checking the floor type and the joint, since that decides which sealant suits. We work on skirting boards, thresholds and concrete floor joints, and people most often call us about gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and worn sealant at door thresholds.

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint.

The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
Old material is removed from the joint.
We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and smooth it.
We check the joints and explain the aftercare.

What you’ll pay

Floor joint sealing across Highland: local notes

Across Highland, from Inverness, Nairn and Thurso outwards, new homes go up alongside older streets. New homes need their sealant and floor joints finished properly, and older ones need them renewing.

We work across all of Scotland, from the cities to the islands, and Highland is part of that. Longer journeys are planned in advance, and outdoor work around the weather. Parts of Highland 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 normally the first to need attention.

Inverness: If you look after a building such as Inverness High School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up. Rented homes near Inverness station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

How to look after the new joints

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:

Check skirting joints after the heating season
Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor

Have a look at the joints once the heating season is over. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up.

Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Sealing them early protects the edges.

Surface by surface

Wet room and bathroom floors

Mop water gets into any open joint at the edge of a bathroom floor. A neat silicone joint keeps it out.

Skirting boards

Gaps between skirting and floor open as timber and floors move. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking painted or coloured to match.

When it is not the sealant

It helps to know what we cannot do:

Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor
Large cracks that need a surveyor
Tiles that have lifted or broken

Landlord and commercial work in Highland

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

Common questions in Highland

Is caulk good enough for skirting?

Caulk works on still, dry joints, but it cracks where there’s movement or water. We use a flexible sealant for most skirting and floor joints.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No, it will not last. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Highland, along with the rest of our area.

Can tenants book the work?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.

Which products do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.

Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?

Yes. We cut out any old sealant or caulk and reseal with flexible silicone.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
