Our floor joint sealing service in Midlothian

Tiled floors can crack along the grout when there’s no room for movement. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant in a matching colour. We work on commercial floors, tiled floors and skirting boards, and the jobs we see most are cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint and rigid edge joints in tiled floors.

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It normally 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.
Edges are cleaned and dried.
A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and tooled.
We check the joints and explain the aftercare.

Near you in Bonnyrigg

Locally, jobs take us to homes and businesses close to Bonnyrigg Parish Church, Lasswade High School Centre and Public Library. The closest station to Bonnyrigg is Eskbank station, about 1.1 miles north-east of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Dalhousie Castle (1.2 miles south-east) and Midlothian Community Hospital (0.8 miles north-east). For a walk, there’s The New Leaf Co-op and Edgelaw Reservoir.

New homes and floors across Midlothian

Across Midlothian, from Bonnyrigg, Dalkeith and Penicuik 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 Midlothian is part of that. Longer journeys are planned in advance, and outdoor work around the weather. Parts of Midlothian are on or near the coast, where wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are hard on outside sealant. Joints on seaward walls tend to fail first.

Bonnyrigg: For buildings such as Bonnyrigg Parish Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Schools such as Lasswade High School Centre are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Landlord and commercial work in Midlothian

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.

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

Aftercare tips

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:

Use furniture pads near skirting
Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
Check skirting joints after the heating season

In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Cone off the area if needed.

A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. Adding a movement joint early can stop cracks spreading to the tiles.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Why deal with it now?

Dirt builds up in open joints and makes the floor look worn. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean.
