Why it’s worth doing now in Kingsteps
The right product depends on the floor and the traffic: flexible sealant for skirting and tiles, silicone in wet areas, and floor-joint products for concrete. Using the wrong one is why many floor joints fail. In a place like Kingsteps, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
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. You’ll know the price before we begin.

How we handle floor joint sealing in Kingsteps
Across Kingsteps, we seal floor and skirting joints in homes and businesses. Each job starts with looking at the floor and the gap, since that decides which sealant suits. If you have floor edges that trap water and grime and perimeter joints in tiled floors filled with grout, we can help, whatever the surface.
Many newer homes in Scotland are timber-framed and settle as they dry out, which shows as gaps at skirtings and floor joints. Older stone-built homes, meanwhile, often have timber floors that move with the seasons.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Don’t fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Look at floor joints each spring
Silicone sealant isn’t made to take paint. If you plan to paint, we’ll use a paintable product.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. A sound seal stops that happening.

You will get a clear quote before work begins. It takes into account:
- Whether the work is at height
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number of rooms or windows
- Which sealant suits the joint
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

Floor joint sealing around Kingsteps
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. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.
Managing a site like Nairn Academy? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Kingsteps: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Nairn station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Kingsteps?
Yes. Kingsteps 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 there a guarantee?
Yes. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, wherever you are.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
It depends on the product and the conditions. We give you the times for walking, cleaning and traffic when we finish.
Why not just use caulk?
Caulk can’t cope with movement or water. Floor edges move through the year, so we use a flexible sealant that stretches.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Can I do it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
In many cases, yes. Where a floor needs one, we rake out grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant. If tiles are loose, that needs fixing first.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Kingsteps
A new floor or screed shrinks and settles as it dries. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so, and rigid fillers crack.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
