What happens if it’s left?
Putting new grout into a crack that keeps reappearing doesn’t last. If the floor needs to move there, the grout will crack again. A flexible movement joint is the fix. In an older home around Clayholes, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Clayholes
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We use a flexible product that suits both floors so the joint stays neat. We work on wet room & bathroom floors, tiled floors and skirting boards, and common reasons people get in touch are open joints that fill with dirt and caulk that has cracked where the floor moves.
For a place like Clayholes, the journey and access are planned in advance. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
- Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Clayholes
Floors around Angus run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.
Community buildings like Carnoustie Parish Church are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. For landlords with property near Golf Street station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.
Clayholes is about 1 mile north-west of Carnoustie, in Angus. Every kind of property in Clayholes is covered for floor joint sealing, old or new, large or small. The work is guaranteed for a year.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
Silicone sealant isn’t made to take paint. If the joint will be painted, tell us beforehand so we use a paintable sealant.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
How it works
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Around Clayholes, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Clear the area around the work

Related advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Your questions about floor joint sealing in Clayholes
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Golf Street station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Clayholes?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk can’t cope with movement or water. Skirting joints move with the floor, so we use a flexible sealant that stretches.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
We give you a cure time for each joint. Feet are generally fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels.
How long will you be here?
Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The product needed can limit the range.
Do you need floor joint sealing in Clayholes?
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. The edges pull away from the skirting, and rigid fillers crack.
People usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
Schools such as Carnoustie High School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.
What your quote should include
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Is VAT in the price?
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- The length of the guarantee
