About our floor joint sealing in Braepark
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. We work on skirting boards, thresholds and wet room & bathroom floors, and people most often call us about worn sealant at door thresholds and failed joint filler in concrete floors.
Scotland’s cities are still adding new flats and houses, and in new homes, sealant and floor joints are often among the first snags.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- The rough size of the job
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the job is, and your postcode
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved and give you a clear quote.
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Light foot traffic is usually fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels, and we will tell you both.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. Resealing early keeps it out.
When something else is needed
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
- Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing
- Tiles that have lifted or broken
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Thresholds
- Commercial floors
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Concrete floor joints
- Tiled floors

Common problems we fix in Braepark
Some floors were never given a perimeter gap or movement joint. As it expands, the edges lift or crack.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
If you let a flat or house near Edinburgh Gateway station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.
Questions to ask before booking
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- How long to leave it before use
- What insurance they hold
- What preparation is included
Floor joint sealing in Braepark: local notes
Floors around Edinburgh run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t 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.
Schools such as Craigmount High School are buildings too, and floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors in most cases. For a tenement in Braepark, work inside your flat is between us and you, while shared parts may need the factor or neighbours to agree. Tell us which applies when you book.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
How to prepare
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Move anything stored near the joints

Advice
DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
