Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Locheport
Good floor joints come down to the right product and clean, prepared edges. We remove what’s there first, the joint is cleaned and backed where needed, then the new sealant goes in. We work on concrete floor joints, wet room & bathroom floors and commercial floors, and the jobs we see most are open joints that fill with dirt and tiled floors with no room to move.
Work in a place like Locheport is planned ahead, journey included. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Questions from Locheport
Can you do floor joint sealing in Locheport?
Yes, Locheport is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Do you cover smaller places like Locheport?
Yes, Locheport is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, islands included, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons, and new floors settle. We close it with a flexible sealant that moves with the floor.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
A typical job takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Why not just use caulk?
Not where the floor moves or gets wet. It splits once the floor shifts, so the gap comes back. A flexible sealant is the better choice.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
What floor joint sealing looks like in Locheport
Island jobs need planning around ferries and the weather, so the more notice, the better. Across Na h-Eileanan Siar, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
For jobs in and around Locheport, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

How we quote for floor joint sealing
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The number and length of the joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The product the joint needs
- Any working-time requirements on site
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
Helping us quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Simply drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and describe the job.
What happens if it’s left?
Filling a skirting gap with caulk looks fine at first, so the gap reappears. A flexible sealant moves with the floor and keeps the joint sealed. In an older home around Locheport, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
Why book with us
- Tidy, careful work
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Colour picked to suit the job

The process
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Clear the area around the work

Related advice
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.
