How we handle floor joint sealing in Drumclog
Tiled floors can crack along the grout when there’s no room for movement. Where one is needed, we rake out the grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant. We work on concrete floor joints, wet room & bathroom floors and tiled floors, and people most often call us about rigid edge joints in tiled floors and threshold joints that have opened or worn.
New homes in smaller Scottish places are often single plots, self-builds or small developments. Each needs its sealant and floor joints finished as carefully as on a big site.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Floor joint sealing around Drumclog
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up. Across South Lanarkshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Around Drumclog, as everywhere, floor joint sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.

Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
What we do, step by step
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Somewhere like Drumclog may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied.
- We check the joints and explain the aftercare.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

Do you need floor joint sealing in Drumclog?
A floor laid tight to the walls has no room to move. As it expands, the edges lift or crack, and the sealant or grout breaks.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
Community buildings like Drumclog Memorial Kirk are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
Questions to ask before you book
- What insurance they hold
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- How long to leave it before use
Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
Do not paint over silicone. If you plan to paint, we’ll use a paintable product.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it keeps the room tidier.
How the job changes by surface
Commercial floors
Shops, offices, warehouses and units all have floor joints that need sealing. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Skirting boards
Skirting pulls away from the floor as floors shrink and settle. We seal them with a flexible sealant rather than caulk in a colour to suit.
