Common questions in Innerwick
Can you do floor joint sealing in Innerwick?
Yes, Innerwick is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
Do you work for landlords with property near Dunbar station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
That varies with the sealant and the room. Before we leave, we tell you when it can be walked on, mopped and driven over so there’s no guesswork.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
Where you plan to paint, we do. Silicone does not take paint, so tell us your plans.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. These joints get wet every time the floor is cleaned, so we seal them with silicone suited to wet areas.
Floor joint sealing in Innerwick
In commercial and industrial units, concrete floor joints take a hammering from wheels and traffic. Each is resealed with a floor-joint product suited to what runs over it. We work on concrete floor joints, tiled floors and thresholds, and common reasons people get in touch are grout cracking in a straight line across a floor and floor edges that trap water and grime.
For a place like Innerwick, 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.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Innerwick as everywhere else we work.

Honest limits

- Large cracks that need a surveyor

- Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor

Joints and finishes in Innerwick homes
Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles. Across East Lothian, 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.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Innerwick Parish Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Keep caulk for dry, still joints only
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
Avoid flooding the floor when you clean. Keeping the edges drier helps the sealant last longer.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen and are harder to clean out.
DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What affects the quote in Innerwick
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- Access and height
- The type of sealant required
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Working hours on commercial sites
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.
What to tell us for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- If someone has resealed it before
- The address or postcode of the job
We quote each job on its own. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details, and pictures are welcome.
What we do, step by step
We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Outside jobs in Innerwick need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors is not affected.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- Old caulk, grout or sealant is removed from the joint.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- The sealant goes in, chosen for the floor and coloured to suit it.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any parking rules near the property
