How we handle floor joint sealing in Leuchars
Gaps along the bottom of skirting are common in new and older homes alike. Decorators’ caulk normally cracks where there’s movement, so we close it with a flexible sealant instead. If you have open joints that fill with dirt and open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards, we can help, whatever the surface.
New homes in smaller Scottish places are often single plots, self-builds or small developments. Each needs its sealant and floor joints finished as carefully as on a big site.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Common questions in Leuchars
Do you cover Leuchars for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Leuchars is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
Is Leuchars within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before any work starts.
Do you seal warehouse floor joints?
Yes, including warehouses, units, shops and offices. Work can be planned around your hours.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
Follow the cure time we give you. Light use comes first, cleaning and heavy traffic later.

Different surfaces, different methods
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floors meet baths, trays, panels and skirting. We seal them with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Thresholds
A threshold is where floors and frames meet. A flexible sealant suits both floor finishes.
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. The work generally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Outside jobs in Leuchars need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.
- 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.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Before we arrive
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Why deal with it now?
Dirt builds up in open joints and makes the floor look worn. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean and look tidier. In an older home around Leuchars, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll talk you through it.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Don’t paint over silicone
Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Light foot traffic is generally fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels so we’ll give you each time.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. Resealing early keeps it out.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Leuchars

New homes and floors in Leuchars
Floors around Fife run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
For landlords with property near Leuchars station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Athernase Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
