What happens on the day
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors, including the tidy-up. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied.
- We check the joints and explain the aftercare.
Getting ready for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice
Floor joint sealing in Kinmundy
We seal floor joints in homes, offices and commercial buildings across Kinmundy. Each job starts with looking at the floor and the gap, because the right sealant depends on both. We work on concrete floor joints, tiled floors and thresholds, and the jobs we see most are cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens and cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint.
Work in a place like Kinmundy is planned ahead, journey included. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Kinmundy and everywhere else we cover.

What affects the quote in Kinmundy
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- Whether the work is at height
- The amount of work
- When we can work, for business premises
- The number of rooms or windows
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 need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- A few photos by email, if you can
- The type of property
We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details, and photos are welcome.
Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Signs you need floor joint sealing in Kinmundy
New floors settle once they’re in use. Gaps at the edges appear in the first year or so and anything rigid cracks.
Look out for these signs:
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
If you look after a building such as New Machar Primary School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
What your quote should include
- How long to leave it before use
- How hidden problems are handled
- Whether VAT is included
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
- Concrete repairs beyond the joint
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
If you’re not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we seal
- Concrete floor joints
- Skirting boards
- Commercial floors
- Thresholds
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Tiled floors
Joints and finishes in Kinmundy homes
Across Aberdeen, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they don’t all move the same 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 buildings such as Newmachar Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Letting a property close to Dyce station? Then gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Kinmundy
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Dyce station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Kinmundy in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Kinmundy 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, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Not where the floor moves or gets wet. Caulk cracks as the floor moves, so the gap comes back. A flexible sealant is the better choice.
Do you seal kitchen plinths to the floor?
Yes. Wet-area floor joints are sealed with a flexible, water-resistant silicone.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
Landlord and commercial work in Kinmundy
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it until it’s ready.
A tiled floor that cracks along a line will keep cracking until it can move. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
