Floor joint sealing in Claverhouse
In commercial and industrial units, concrete floor joints take a hammering from wheels and traffic. Each is resealed with a floor-joint product suited to what runs over it. We work on skirting boards, thresholds and tiled floors, and common reasons people get in touch are open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards and worn sealant at door thresholds.
Scotland’s cities are still adding new flats and houses, and new-home owners often find sealant snags in the first year or two, in Claverhouse as anywhere.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

What we’re called out for in Claverhouse
Water and dirt collect in open floor joints. In kitchens and bathrooms, mop water gets into the gap.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Mains Parish Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- How long the guarantee is
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
What affects the cost of floor joint sealing
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The amount of work
- The product the joint needs
- Working hours on commercial sites
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- The problem you’ve noticed
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add photos by email if you can.
Different surfaces, different methods
Skirting boards
Skirting pulls away from the floor as floors shrink and settle. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking.
Commercial floors
Shops, offices, warehouses and units all have floor joints that need sealing. We talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Concrete repairs beyond the joint
- Movement too big for a sealant joint
- Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
Not every floor joint takes the same sealant: skirting and tiled floors need flexibility, wet areas need water resistance and concrete needs a product suited to wheels. Using the wrong one is why many floor joints fail. For landlords in Claverhouse, damp and leaks can be a Repairing Standard issue, so it’s worth fixing failed sealant before a tenant reports it.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

New homes and floors in Claverhouse
Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles. Across Dundee, 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. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you look after a building such as Scottish School of Contemporary Dance, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. For landlords with property near Dundee station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

How do I get a quote for floor joint sealing in Claverhouse?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Floors shrink and settle, especially in the first year or two and through the heating season pulls the skirting and floor apart. Rigid fillers split, so we use a flexible sealant.
Do you cover Claverhouse?
Yes. We are based in Crawley and work across South East England, London and Scotland, and that includes Claverhouse.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Claverhouse.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
