Why it’s worth doing now in Gourdon
Filling a skirting gap with caulk looks fine at first, so the gap reappears. A flexible sealant stretches instead, so the joint stays closed. Around Gourdon, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
What you get with us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- Colour agreed with you before we start
- Old sealant always removed completely

Floor joint sealing in Gourdon, done properly
Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. For bathrooms and kitchens, silicone is normally the better choice. We work on thresholds, commercial floors and skirting boards, and people most often call us about cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens and failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels.
Many newer homes in Scotland are timber-framed and settle as they dry out, so skirting and floor joints can open up. Older stone-built homes, meanwhile, often have timber floors that move with the seasons.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we have gone.

New homes and floors in Gourdon
Across Aberdeenshire, 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. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
In and around Gourdon, as anywhere, good floor joint sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What happens on the day
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and smooth it.
- We check the joints and explain the aftercare.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
How the job changes by surface
Thresholds
Threshold joints get a lot of feet, so the sealant has to be tough as well as flexible and tool it flush.
Wet room and bathroom floors
In a wet room, the floor-to-wall joint is a key line of defence. It’s resealed with a sanitary silicone and we will say if the problem looks like more than the joint.
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Tiles that have lifted or broken
- Concrete repairs beyond the joint
- Leaks from a failed tanking system
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Gourdon questions
Do you cover Gourdon for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Gourdon is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Is floor joint sealing in Gourdon guaranteed?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes. Old filler is cleaned out and the joint resealed with a floor-joint product. Let us know about the traffic and we’ll quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll explain which colours are available.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. Wet-area floor joints are sealed with a flexible, water-resistant silicone to keep mop water out.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Often, yes. Where a floor needs one, we rake out grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant coloured to suit. If tiles are loose, that needs fixing first.

Common problems we fix in Gourdon
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so and anything rigid cracks.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
For buildings such as Old Parish Church And Churchyard, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
