- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
Surface by surface
Tiled floors
When grout cracks along a straight line, the floor is telling you it needs to move. That line is converted to a flexible joint where it suits the floor.
Skirting boards
Skirting pulls away from the floor as floors shrink and settle. We seal them with a flexible sealant rather than caulk.
About our floor joint sealing in Corran
Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is usually the better choice. We work on commercial floors, tiled floors and wet room & bathroom floors, and people most often call us about gaps at thresholds between rooms and concrete floor joints that have broken down.
Around smaller Scottish places like Corran, new homes tend to be single plots or small developments. They need their sealant and floor joints finished just as carefully as on a big site.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

How the visit works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes, depending on the size of the job. Outdoor work around Corran depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
Joints and finishes in Corran homes
Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up. Across Highland, 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’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For buildings such as Ardgour Parish Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Why it’s worth doing now in Corran
Dirt builds up in open joints. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

DIY versus a professional finish
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. Everything old must be removed first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Questions from Corran
What guarantee comes with floor joint sealing in Corran?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you cover smaller places like Corran?
Yes. Corran is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
When can I walk on the floor?
That varies with the sealant and the room. Before we leave, we tell you when it can be walked on, mopped and driven over so there’s no guesswork.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. Where a floor meets a bath panel, kitchen plinth or skirting in a wet area, we use a flexible silicone to keep mop water out.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.
What we are called out for in Corran
Wheels crossing an unfilled concrete joint chip its edges. Pallet trucks and trolleys knock the edges away.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
In and around Corran, as anywhere, good floor joint sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
