Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Bellahouston
Thresholds are where two floors, or a floor and a door, meet. We use a flexible product that suits both floors in a colour to suit. If you have dirt and water collecting in open floor joints and threshold joints that have opened or worn, we can put it right.
In a Scottish city, commercial floors have movement joints and thresholds that wear under traffic. In Bellahouston, we cover those floor joints as well as plot mastic for developers.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Early resealing helps keep the joint intact.

Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
What floor joint sealing looks like in Bellahouston
Across Glasgow, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.
For buildings such as Ibrox Parish Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Managing a site like Bellahouston Academy? Then entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. For landlords with property near Dumbreck station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Surface by surface
Concrete floor joints
Concrete floors have sawn or formed joints to control cracking. They’re resealed with a product chosen for what runs over them.
Thresholds
Thresholds between rooms meet two floors and often a door frame. We seal them with a flexible sealant that suits both sides.
What we do, step by step
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. In a Scottish city, a lot of jobs are in tenement flats, up a common stair from a shared close. In Bellahouston, it helps to know the floor, the door entry arrangements and the nearest parking.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor and tooled.
- We check the joints and explain the aftercare.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
