How we handle floor joint sealing in Little Brechin
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone because it handles water. We’re often asked to deal with worn sealant at door thresholds and dirt and water collecting in open floor joints, on thresholds, wet room & bathroom floors and commercial floors.
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and it settles over the first years, which shows as gaps at skirtings and floor joints. Older stone-built homes, meanwhile, often have timber floors that move with the seasons.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Don’t paint over silicone
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Feet are normally fine before mopping or wheeled traffic.
A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and the edges sound.
The process
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint and we leave things clean and tidy. Outdoor work around Little Brechin depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- The room is cleared along the joints so we can reach them.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and tooled.
- We check the joints and explain the aftercare.

Leave it or put it right?
Waiting until the next redecoration can mean a winter of draughts and dirt in the gaps. Sealing them now is a short job in most rooms. Around Little Brechin, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak 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 tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Is Little Brechin within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
How long will you be here?
Typically it takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will tell you how long to expect.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Little Brechin
Across Angus, 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. 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.
Around Little Brechin, as everywhere, floor joint sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it. Schools such as Brechin High School are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.
