Kilkerran questions
Is there a guarantee on floor joint sealing in Kilkerran?
All our work, in Kilkerran and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Can you do floor joint sealing in Kilkerran?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Kilkerran is part of that. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Not where the floor moves or gets wet. Caulk cracks as the floor moves and the gap reopens. A flexible sealant lasts longer there.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
Where do you work from?
We are a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
About our floor joint sealing in Kilkerran
Tiled floors can crack along the grout when there’s no room for movement. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant. We work on concrete floor joints, thresholds and skirting boards, and common reasons people get in touch are concrete floor joints that have broken down and failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels.
Work in a place like Kilkerran is planned ahead, journey included. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What affects the cost of floor joint sealing
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Mould in or behind the old joints

Floor joint sealing in Kilkerran: local notes
Across Argyll and Bute, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. That’s 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.
Community buildings like Kilkerran Old Parish Church are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

When it is not the sealant
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Cracked or broken concrete slabs
- Large cracks that need a surveyor
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Skirting boards
- Concrete floor joints
- Thresholds
- Commercial floors
- Tiled floors
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Landlords and letting agents in Kilkerran can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Cone off the area if needed while it cures.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Ignored, they fill with dirt and open further over time.
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. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

What we’re called out for in Kilkerran
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so and anything rigid cracks.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
In and around Kilkerran, as anywhere, good floor joint sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
