Liurbost questions
Do you cover smaller places like Liurbost?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is floor joint sealing in Liurbost guaranteed?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Often, yes. Straight cracks in grout often show where a movement joint was needed. We rake out that line and seal it with flexible sealant.
Why not just use caulk?
Only on dry joints that do not move. Caulk cracks as the floor moves and the gap reopens. A flexible sealant is the better choice.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
It depends on the sealant, so let us know first. We use a paintable flexible sealant on joints you plan to paint, and silicone elsewhere.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.
Floor joint sealing in Liurbost, done properly
Large tiled floors, and those over underfloor heating, often need movement joints. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant coloured to suit the grout. If you’re dealing with chipped and open joints in warehouse floors and cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens, we can help, whatever the surface.
Around smaller Scottish places like Liurbost, new homes tend to be single plots or small developments. They need their sealant and floor joints finished just as carefully as on a big site.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Leave it or put it right?
Water that gets past a floor joint can damage the floor beneath. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Joints and finishes in Liurbost homes
Island jobs need planning around ferries and the weather, so give us as much notice as you can. Across Na h-Eileanan Siar, 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 is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Community buildings like Parish Church are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
Liurbost is in Na h-Eileanan Siar. Across the HS2 area, our applicators can take on floor joint sealing. Our Na h-Eileanan Siar coverage runs to 87 places, Liurbost among them.
Here we cover the HS2 postcode area for floor joint sealing. Floor joint sealing is available to properties on Macdonald Gardens, Liurbost and Kennedy View and the roads around them. Close by, we work in North Lochs (1 mile east), Crosbost (1 mile east), Lacasaidh (3 miles south-west), Marybank (6 miles north) and Stornoway (6 miles north-east). For island and remote addresses, a little more planning is needed.

When to call us in Liurbost
Caulk is the usual filler for skirting. In a joint that moves or gets wet, it splits.
The most common problems we see are:
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
Around Liurbost, as everywhere, floor joint sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What the job involves on each surface
Concrete floor joints
We clean concrete joints out thoroughly before sealing first. Backing goes in where the depth needs controlling.
Thresholds
A threshold is where floors and frames meet. A flexible sealant suits both floor finishes.
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
Do not paint over silicone. If the joint will be painted, tell us beforehand so we use a paintable sealant.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and the edges sound.
The process
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Outside jobs in Liurbost need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- 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.
- We check the joints and explain the aftercare.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Clear the area around the work
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
