When to call us in Edderton
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. Heating dries timber and opens gaps along the skirting, then close again in damper months.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
Community buildings like Church of Scotland Parish Church are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

Floor joint sealing in Edderton
Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. A flexible silicone seal keeps it out. We’re often asked to deal with open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards and open joints around bathroom floor edges, on tiled floors, wet room & bathroom floors and commercial floors.
Around smaller Scottish places like Edderton, 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.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
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.
How the visit works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Tiled floors
A crack running along a grout line is often a sign of a missing movement joint. That line is converted to a flexible joint.
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.
When it isn’t the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
- Structural movement or subsidence
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal

Joints and finishes in Edderton homes
Across Highland, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial 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.
For landlords with property near Tain station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

Edderton: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Tain station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you cover Edderton for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Edderton is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Caulk is fine for dry joints that do not move, but it splits where the joint moves or gets wet. We use a flexible sealant for most skirting and floor joints.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint, including preparation and clearing up. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. All our work carries a 12-month guarantee.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available and agree one before work begins.
How long before the joint can take traffic?
We give you a cure time for each joint. Feet are usually fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels, depending on the product.
