Surface by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
In a wet room, the floor-to-wall joint is a key line of defence. We reseal it with a flexible silicone suited to wet areas and we will say if the problem looks like more than the joint.
Concrete floor joints
Hard wheels break down the edges of open joints. A sealed joint protects the edges and stops debris collecting.
Floor joint sealing in Laighstonehall
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We use a flexible product that suits both floors so the joint stays neat. If you’re dealing with open joints that fill with dirt and skirting caulk that keeps splitting, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Work in a place like Laighstonehall is planned ahead, journey included. Outdoor plot mastic needs dry weather, but indoor floor and skirting joints can be sealed whatever the forecast.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

How long does the job take?

Where do you work from?

Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Because caulk cracks where there’s movement or water. Floor edges move through the year, so a flexible sealant suits them better.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured for every job we do.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll explain which colours are available.
What floor joint sealing looks like in Laighstonehall
Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles. Floors around South Lanarkshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
If you let a flat or house near Hamilton West station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant. Schools such as Earnock High School are buildings too, and floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

The process
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint and we leave things clean and tidy. Outside jobs in Laighstonehall need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- We take out the cracked caulk, grout or old sealant.
- We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
- We apply a flexible sealant suited to the floor and smooth it.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Advice
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Cone off the area if needed while it cures.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
