Different surfaces, different methods
Wet room and bathroom floors
Wet room floors rely on sound joints at the walls. We reseal it with a flexible silicone suited to wet areas, and we’ll tell you if the leak seems to come from elsewhere.
Skirting boards
Skirting pulls away from the floor as floors shrink and settle. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking painted or coloured to match.
Floor joint sealing in Kalliness
Floors move, and the joint where they meet a wall, skirting, threshold or another floor has to move with them. We seal skirting gaps, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. We work on tiled floors, wet room & bathroom floors and skirting boards, and people most often call us about perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout and gaps opening between the floor and skirting.
Around smaller Scottish places like Kalliness, new homes tend to be single plots or small developments. Each needs its sealant and floor joints finished as carefully as on a big site.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. For a place like Kalliness, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Let us know about parking restrictions

What happens if it’s left?
Water that gets past a floor joint can damage the floor beneath. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. Around Kalliness, 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.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
Have a look at the joints once the heating season is over. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up early on.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further.
Joints and finishes in Kalliness homes
Floors around the Shetland Islands run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That’s 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.
For jobs in and around Kalliness, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish. Around Kalliness, as everywhere, floor joint sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Kalliness is in the Shetland Islands. Anywhere in ZE2, we cover floor joint sealing for homes and businesses. Kalliness is one of 63 places in the Shetland Islands where we work.

Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- Leaks from a failed tanking system
- Structural movement or subsidence
If you are not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
