Why it’s worth doing now in Burnbank

Left open, concrete joints break down under traffic. Resealing it early protects the edges and keeps the damage down. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.

Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

Why us?

  • More than 20 years in sealant work
  • An ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
  • Fully insured

Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Burnbank

A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side. Typical jobs include skirting that has pulled away from the floor and grout cracking in a straight line across a floor, on tiled floors, commercial floors and thresholds.

Work in a place like Burnbank is planned ahead, journey included. Outdoor plot mastic needs dry weather, but indoor floor and skirting joints can be sealed whatever the forecast.

A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

Joints and finishes in Burnbank homes

Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up. Across South Lanarkshire, 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.

Letting a property close to Hamilton West station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. For buildings such as Burnbank Parish Church And Hall, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Burnbank is about 1 mile north-west of Hamilton, in South Lanarkshire.

DIY versus a professional finish

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.

Burnbank: your questions answered

Can you do floor joint sealing in Burnbank?

Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Burnbank is part of that. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Hamilton West station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.

Can I do it myself?

That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.

Do you have insurance?

Yes, we’re fully insured for every job we do.

Do you use a paintable sealant?

If you tell us beforehand, yes. Joints that will be painted get a paintable product and wet areas get silicone.

Will you leave a mess?

We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected.

Do you work on commercial floors?

Yes. Concrete floor joints in warehouses and units are part of our work. We’ll talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.

The process

There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. For a place like Burnbank, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
  2. Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
  3. The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
  4. The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
  5. Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Related advice

When it is not the sealant

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Concrete repairs beyond the joint
  • Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
  • Floors that are uneven or need levelling

If you’re not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we seal

  • Concrete floor joints
  • Thresholds
  • Wet room & bathroom floors
  • Skirting boards
  • Commercial floors
  • Tiled floors

When to call us in Burnbank

Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. Heating dries timber and opens gaps along the skirting.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Failed joint filler in concrete floors
  • Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
  • Open joints that fill with dirt
  • Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels

Managing a site like John Ogilvie High School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

What your quote should include

  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • The length of the guarantee
  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • Is VAT in the price?

Choosing a sealant specialist

For landlords and businesses

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can go on one quote, and we are fully insured for the work.
