About our floor joint sealing in Little Ballinluig
Tiled floors can crack along the grout when there’s no room for movement. Where one is needed, we rake out the grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant. If you have open joints around bathroom floor edges and worn sealant at door thresholds, we can help, on tiled floors, wet room & bathroom floors and skirting boards alike.
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and it settles over the first years, so skirting and floor joints can open up. Older stone-built homes, meanwhile, often have timber floors that move with the seasons.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Don’t paint over silicone
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
Follow the cure time before walking on or cleaning the joint. Light foot traffic is normally fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels.
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.
FAQs for Little Ballinluig
Can you do floor joint sealing in Little Ballinluig?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Little Ballinluig is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
I let a flat near Pitlochry station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is it messy?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
Often, yes. Where a floor needs one, we rake out grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant coloured to suit. If tiles are loose, that needs fixing first.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. Floor edges in bathrooms and kitchens get wet at every clean, so a flexible silicone is the right choice.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
If you tell us beforehand, yes. We use a paintable flexible sealant on joints you plan to paint, and silicone elsewhere.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Floor joint sealing around Little Ballinluig
Floors around Perth and Kinross run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not 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.
Rented homes near Pitlochry station change hands often, and 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 Strathtay Parish Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Outside jobs in Little Ballinluig need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- 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 tooled.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Mention any tricky access

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
The right product depends on the floor and the traffic: skirting and tiled floors need flexibility, wet areas need water resistance and concrete needs a product suited to wheels. Using the wrong one is why many floor joints fail. In an older home around Little Ballinluig, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.
Why book with us
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

What the job involves on each surface
Concrete floor joints
Hard wheels break down the edges of open joints. A sealed joint protects the edges and keeps dirt out.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A flexible seal stops water running into the gap.
