Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Boddam
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone, which is not made to be painted. We work on skirting boards, thresholds and wet room & bathroom floors, and the jobs we see most are worn sealant at door thresholds and open joints that fill with dirt.
Many newer homes in Scotland are timber-framed and settle as they dry out, so skirting and floor joints can open up. In older homes, timber floors move through the year too.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Surface by surface
Commercial floors
Floor joint work in businesses can be planned around your hours. We can arrange out-of-hours work where it’s needed.
Thresholds
Threshold joints get a lot of feet, so the sealant has to be tough as well as flexible and tool it flush.

What happens on the day
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Outdoor work around Boddam depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Do you need floor joint sealing in Boddam?
An open floor joint fills with dirt and water. In wet areas, water runs into the gap at every clean and behind skirting and plinths.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
Around Boddam, as everywhere, floor joint sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Floor joint sealing around Boddam
Across Aberdeenshire, 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. 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 Parish Church Of Boddam, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

FAQs for Boddam
Is Boddam within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is floor joint sealing in Boddam guaranteed?
All our work, in Boddam and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.

Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
