Floor joint sealing in Currie: local notes
Floors around Edinburgh run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That’s 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.
Rented homes near Curriehill station change hands often, and open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. Managing a site like Currie High School? Then entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. For buildings such as Currie Kirk, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Currie
Gaps along the bottom of skirting are common in new and older homes alike. Caulk tends to crack there, so we close it with a flexible sealant instead. If you’re dealing with gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and skirting that has pulled away from the floor, we can help, on wet room & bathroom floors, skirting boards and tiled floors alike.
Many newer homes in Scotland are timber-framed and settle as they dry out, which shows as gaps at skirtings and floor joints. Older stone-built homes, meanwhile, often have timber floors that move with the seasons.

FAQs for Currie
Do you cover Currie for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Currie is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
Will you come out to Currie?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Where are you based?
We are based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Caulk cannot cope with movement or water. Skirting joints move with the floor, so we use a flexible sealant that stretches.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You’ll get a clear quote before work begins.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Don’t paint over silicone
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Light foot traffic is usually fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels so we’ll give you each time.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it keeps the room tidier.
Leave it or put it right?
Caulk is quick and cheap, but it cracks where the joint moves or gets wet, but the movement soon cracks it. A flexible sealant moves with the floor and keeps the joint sealed. Around Currie, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Quotes for floor joint sealing in Currie

- The size of the job

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed

What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
