Floor joint sealing in Lochee, done properly
Tiled floors can crack along the grout when there’s no room for movement. We can turn a line of grout into a movement joint by replacing it with flexible sealant coloured to suit the grout. If you are dealing with floor edges that trap water and grime and cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint, we can put it right, on concrete floor joints, skirting boards and tiled floors alike.
New flats and houses are still being built in and around Scotland’s cities, and in new homes, sealant and floor joints are often among the first snags, in Lochee as anywhere.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

For landlords and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
How the job changes by surface
Concrete floor joints
Hard wheels break down the edges of open joints. A sealed joint protects the edges.
Commercial floors
Commercial washrooms and kitchens have floor joints that get wet constantly. They’re resealed with a flexible, water-resistant sealant.
Questions from Lochee
I let a flat near Dundee station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
What guarantee comes with floor joint sealing in Lochee?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we are fully insured too.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. The old joint comes out and a flexible silicone replaces it, colour-matched where it shows.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Do you come to Lochee?
Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes, where it suits the floor. We remove the grout and seal the line with flexible sealant.
Leave it or put it right?
Left open, concrete joints break down under traffic. Resealing it early protects the edges and keeps the damage down. In a Scottish city tenement, failed sealant affects more than one flat: water can reach the flat below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-stopping affect the whole stair.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes, depending on the amount of work. For a tenement in Lochee, work inside your flat is between us and you, while shared parts may need the factor or neighbours to agree. It helps to know which it is when you get in touch.
- We start by looking at the floor, the gap and the traffic, then choose the product.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- A flexible sealant, or a floor-joint sealant for concrete, is applied in a colour to suit.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

New homes and floors in Lochee
Floors around Dundee 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. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
For buildings such as Lochee Baptist Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Menzieshill High School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
