How we handle floor joint sealing in Brèibhig
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone because it handles water. If you are dealing with floor edges that trap water and grime and threshold joints that have opened or worn, we can put it right.
Work in a place like Brèibhig is planned ahead, journey included. Outdoor plot mastic needs dry weather, but indoor floor and skirting joints can be sealed whatever the forecast.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Na h-Eileanan Siar.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Brèibhig
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles. Island jobs need planning around ferries and the weather, so the more notice, the better.
Schools such as Castlebay Community School are buildings too, and floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Brèibhig questions
Is Brèibhig within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is there a guarantee on floor joint sealing in Brèibhig?
All our work, in Brèibhig and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it, colour-matched where it shows.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a short description of the job.
Why not just use caulk?
Caulk is fine for dry joints that do not move, but it cracks where there’s movement or water. We use a flexible sealant for most skirting and floor joints.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
What happens if it’s left?
Floor joints left open collect dirt that’s hard to clean out, and they look untidy. A neat sealed joint is easier to clean and finishes the floor. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
