- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
What we are called out for in Fishcross
When a tiled floor has no movement joints, the grout takes the strain. Cracks often run straight along a line of joints, where a flexible joint should have been.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Sauchie Parish Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

How we handle floor joint sealing in Fishcross
Large tiled floors, and those over underfloor heating, often need movement joints. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant in a matching colour. We work on concrete floor joints, skirting boards and thresholds, and common reasons people get in touch are grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant and open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards.
For a place like Fishcross, the journey and access are planned in advance. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

When it is not the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Structural movement or subsidence
- Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere

How we quote for floor joint sealing
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether the work is at height
- The type of sealant required
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
Helping us quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- If someone has resealed it before
There’s no standard price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

How soon can the floor be mopped?
Follow the cure time we give you. Light use comes first, cleaning and heavy traffic later, depending on the product.
Do you seal warehouse floor joints?
Yes. Concrete floor joints in warehouses and units are part of our work. We will talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
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.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Surface by surface
Thresholds
Two different floors meeting at a threshold move differently. We bridge them with a flexible bead.
Skirting boards
Skirting gaps are one of the most common floor joints we seal. The old caulk is removed first so the bead sits on a clean surface.
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Joints and finishes in Fishcross homes
Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles. Floors around Clackmannanshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Schools such as Alva Academy are buildings too, and floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. Letting a property close to Alloa station? Then open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.
