What the job involves on each surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Wet room floors rely on sound joints at the walls. It’s resealed with a sanitary silicone and we will say if the problem looks like more than the joint.
Commercial floors
Floor joint work in businesses can be planned around your hours. We can arrange out-of-hours work where it’s needed.
Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Fauldhouse
Thresholds are where two floors, or a floor and a door, meet. We use a flexible product that suits both floors in a colour to suit. We’re often asked to deal with worn sealant at door thresholds and failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels, across thresholds, wet room & bathroom floors and commercial floors.
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and it settles over the first years, so skirting and floor joints can open up. Older stone-built homes, meanwhile, often have timber floors that move with the seasons.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Fauldhouse
Do you work for landlords with property near Fauldhouse station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is Fauldhouse in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Fauldhouse is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
On joints you want to paint, yes. Silicone does not take paint, so tell us your plans.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes. We reseal concrete floor joints in commercial and industrial units. We’ll talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Do not paint over silicone
- Don’t fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it until it’s ready.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. Adding a movement joint early can stop cracks spreading to the tiles.

Joints and finishes in Fauldhouse homes
Floors around West Lothian run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
Around Fauldhouse, as everywhere, floor joint sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
