Floor joint sealing in Carluke, done properly

In kitchens and bathrooms, the joint where the floor meets a bath panel, plinth or skirting takes mop water every day. A flexible silicone seal keeps it out and stops dirt collecting. If you have tiled floors with no room to move and gaps opening between the floor and skirting, we can help, whatever the surface.

Many newer Scottish homes have timber frames, which settle as they dry out, so skirting and floor joints can open up in the first year or two.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What we do, step by step

There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes, including the tidy-up. In a Scottish town like Carluke, parking is usually straightforward, though older centres can be tighter. If you are in a flat with a shared stair or a door entry system, let us know when you book.

  1. We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
  2. We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
  3. Edges are cleaned and dried.
  4. We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor and smooth it.
  5. We check the joints and explain the aftercare.

How to prepare

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

What the job involves on each 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.

Commercial floors

Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. We talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.

What we’re called out for in Carluke

Some floors were never given a perimeter gap or movement joint. As it expands, the edges lift or crack and joints fail.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Failed joint filler in concrete floors
  • Gaps at thresholds between rooms
  • Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
  • Open joints that fill with dirt

For landlords with property near Carluke station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether VAT is included
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant

Floor joint sealing around Carluke

Floors around South Lanarkshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.

If you look after a building such as Carluke High School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Carluke

What guarantee comes with floor joint sealing in Carluke?

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

Do you cover Carluke for floor joint sealing?

Yes, Carluke is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.

Where are you based?

We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.

Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?

Caulk is fine for dry joints that do not move, but it splits where the joint moves or gets wet. For most floor joints, we use a flexible sealant.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?

Yes. Floor edges in bathrooms and kitchens get wet at every clean, so we seal them with silicone suited to wet areas.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.

When something else is needed

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • Concrete repairs beyond the joint
  • Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
  • Large cracks that need a surveyor

Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.

Where we work in Carluke

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

What affects the quote in Carluke

We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:

  • Any mould that needs treating
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The number and length of the joints

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Helping us quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • The rough size of the job
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • The address or postcode of the job

Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Simply send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and describe the job and send pictures if you have them.

Why deal with it now?

Water that gets past a floor joint can damage the floor beneath. Sealing them now keeps the problem at the surface. Scottish weather finds any gap, and in a town like Carluke, failed outside joints soon let damp into walls. Indoors, failed sealant lets water into floors and ceilings.

Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
