- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards

Floor joint sealing in Inchmarlo, done properly
Every floor moves a little, so its edges need a joint that can flex. We seal skirting gaps, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. If you’re dealing with cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens and cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint, we can help, on skirting boards, commercial floors and tiled floors alike.
For a place like Inchmarlo, the journey and access are planned in advance. Outdoor plot mastic needs dry weather, but indoor floor and skirting joints can be sealed whatever the forecast.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What happens on the day
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors in most cases. 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.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- A flexible sealant, or a floor-joint sealant for concrete, is applied in a colour to suit.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

What else we do in Inchmarlo
Common problems we fix in Inchmarlo
Concrete floor joints break down when traffic runs over open or failed joints. Pallet trucks and trolleys knock the edges away until the joint widens.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Banchory Academy, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Is VAT in the price?
- How hidden problems are handled
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. Resealing early keeps it out.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Landlords and agents in Inchmarlo can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Inchmarlo
Will you come out to Inchmarlo?
Yes. Inchmarlo is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is Inchmarlo in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Inchmarlo is part of that. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. We cut out any old sealant or caulk and reseal with flexible silicone.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we will agree it with you first.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes, at the edges and along suitable lines. The grout is raked out and replaced with a flexible sealant in a colour to suit, giving the floor room to move.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
New homes and floors in Inchmarlo
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. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
Around Inchmarlo, as everywhere, floor joint sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Inchmarlo is about 16 miles south of Inverurie, in Aberdeenshire. Jobs in Inchmarlo get the same care as everywhere else we work: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Why deal with it now?
Not every floor joint takes the same sealant: flexible sealant for skirting and tiles, silicone in wet areas, and floor-joint products for concrete. Getting that choice wrong is a common reason joints fail. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
