Greenfield: your questions answered
I let a flat near Shettleston station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is floor joint sealing in Greenfield guaranteed?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Do you use a paintable sealant?
For painted skirting, we use a flexible product that can be painted. Silicone will not take paint, so it’s kept for wet areas and unpainted joints.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
We give you a cure time for each joint. Light use comes first, cleaning and heavy traffic later, depending on the product.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. Floor edges in bathrooms and kitchens get wet at every clean, so we seal them with silicone suited to wet areas.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Floor joint sealing in Greenfield, done properly
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 coloured to suit the grout. We work on concrete floor joints, wet room & bathroom floors and commercial floors, and common reasons people get in touch are open joints around bathroom floor edges and skirting caulk that keeps splitting.
New flats and houses are still being built in and around Scotland’s cities, and in new homes, sealant and floor joints are often among the first snags.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself generally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes, depending on the size of the job. Many homes in Scotland’s cities are tenement flats, reached through a shared close and up a common stair. For a job in Greenfield, tell us the floor, how the door entry system works and where we can park nearby.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about parking restrictions

What else we do in Greenfield
When to call us in Greenfield
An open floor joint fills with dirt and water. In wet areas, water runs into the gap at every clean.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
If you look after a building such as Eastbank Academy, floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

New homes and floors in Greenfield
Floors around Glasgow run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
If you let a flat or house near Shettleston station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Why deal with it now?
Water that gets past a floor joint can damage the floor beneath. Sealing them now keeps the problem at the surface. For landlords in Greenfield, damp and leaks can be a Repairing Standard issue, so it’s worth fixing failed sealant before a tenant reports it.

Different surfaces, different methods
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 gaps are one of the most common floor joints we seal. The old caulk is removed first.
Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before you book.
