How the visit works
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Somewhere like Auchenblae may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- A flexible sealant, or a floor-joint sealant for concrete, is applied in a colour to suit.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Floor joint sealing in Auchenblae, done properly
Floor joint sealing is mostly about choosing the right product and preparing the joint. We remove what’s there first, the joint is cleaned and backed where needed, then the new sealant goes in. We work on tiled floors, wet room & bathroom floors and concrete floor joints, and the jobs we see most are caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and dirt and water collecting in open floor joints.
For a place like Auchenblae, the journey and access are planned in advance. Outdoor plot mastic needs dry weather, but indoor floor and skirting joints can be sealed whatever the forecast.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Leave it or put it right?
Putting new grout into a crack that keeps reappearing doesn’t last. The movement is still there, so the grout fails again. A flexible movement joint is the fix. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

Take a look at what affects the cost and our reviews.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Common questions in Auchenblae
Do you cover Auchenblae for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Auchenblae is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
I let a flat near Laurencekirk station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Because caulk cracks where there’s movement or water. Skirting joints move with the floor, so we use a flexible sealant that stretches.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
Follow the cure time we give you. Feet are usually fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels in most cases.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Do you need floor joint sealing in Auchenblae?
Grout is rigid, so a tiled floor with nowhere to move cracks along a grout line. You will see a crack running along the grout, showing where a movement joint was needed.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Tiled floors with no room to move
For landlords with property near Laurencekirk station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

Surface by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
In a wet room, the floor-to-wall joint is a key line of defence. We reseal it with a flexible silicone suited to wet areas, and we’ll tell you if the leak seems to come from elsewhere.
Commercial floors
In commercial buildings, we can plan floor joint work around opening hours. Out-of-hours working can be arranged if the floor is busy.
Joints and finishes in Auchenblae homes
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up. Floors around Aberdeenshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Auchenblae Parish Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Do not paint over silicone
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
Check the joints after the first winter. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up early on.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen over time.
