Floor joint sealing around Hill of Fearn
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up. Across Highland, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For landlords with property near Fearn station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

Floor joint sealing in Hill of Fearn
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. Common call-outs are for caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout, across wet room & bathroom floors, concrete floor joints and skirting boards.
New homes in smaller Scottish places are often single plots, self-builds or small developments. They need their sealant and floor joints finished just as carefully as on a big site.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

The process
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. For a place like Hill of Fearn, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- 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
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
How to get a quote

Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
Have a look at the joints once the heating season is over. If anything has opened, it’s easy to reseal early on.
Once concrete joint edges start to break, wheels make it worse. Sealing them early protects the edges.
Surface by surface
Commercial floors
Shops, offices, warehouses and units all have floor joints that need sealing. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Concrete floor joints
Hard wheels break down the edges of open joints. A sealed joint protects the edges and keeps dirt out.
What happens if it’s left?
Water that gets past a floor joint can damage the floor beneath. Sealing them now keeps the problem at the surface. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before any work starts.

Hill of Fearn: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Fearn station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover Hill of Fearn for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Hill of Fearn 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.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
We give you a cure time for each joint. Feet are generally fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.
How long will you be here?
That depends on how much there is to do, but most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. We’ll tell you when we quote.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we’re fully insured too.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
