Floor joint sealing around Baile Mòr
Across Argyll and Bute, 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. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.
For buildings such as Iona Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Floor joint sealing in Baile Mòr, done properly
Large tiled floors, and those over underfloor heating, often need movement joints. Where one is needed, we rake out the grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant coloured to suit the grout. Typical jobs include caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards, across skirting boards, concrete floor joints and tiled floors.
New homes in smaller Scottish places are often single plots, self-builds or small developments. They need their sealant and floor joints finished just as carefully as on a big site.
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Argyll and Bute.

Common problems we fix in Baile Mòr
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
In and around Baile Mòr, as anywhere, good floor joint sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Before you book anyone
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How the colour is chosen
- Is VAT in the price?
- What product goes in the joint
Surface by surface
Concrete floor joints
Old filler, dust and debris are cleaned out of the joint, vacuuming them clean. Backing goes in where the depth needs controlling.
Tiled floors
When grout cracks along a straight line, the floor is telling you it needs to move. That line is converted to a flexible joint if it’s in the right place.

Yes, Baile Mòr is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.

What should I tell you?
A short description and the location, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Can you match the sealant colour?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes, where it suits the floor. The grout is raked out and replaced with a flexible sealant in a colour to suit so the floor can move.

When something else is needed
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
