Floor joint sealing in Madderty
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side in a colour to suit. We work on wet room & bathroom floors, skirting boards and concrete floor joints, and the jobs we see most are gaps at thresholds between rooms and grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant.
For a place like Madderty, the journey and access are planned in advance. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

When to call us in Madderty
Floors and walls move a little with the seasons. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open and they change again in summer.
Look out for these signs:
- Rigid edge joints in tiled floors
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn
- Tiled floors with no room to move
In and around Madderty, as anywhere, good floor joint sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Questions to ask before booking

What else we do in Madderty
How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors in most cases. Outdoor work around Madderty depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

New homes and floors in Madderty
Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up. Across Perth and Kinross, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Whether the job is in Madderty itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

FAQs for Madderty
Is Madderty within the area you cover?
Yes. Madderty is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
What guarantee comes with floor joint sealing in Madderty?
All our work, in Madderty and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Caulk cannot cope with movement or water. Floor edges move through the year, so we use a flexible sealant that stretches.
Do you work on commercial floors?
Yes, including warehouses, units, shops and offices. We can plan around your opening times, and out-of-hours work can be arranged.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Madderty and the rest of Perth and Kinross, along with the rest of our area.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
How long will you be here?
It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a morning or an afternoon for most homes. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.
How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Do not fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
Lift furniture rather than sliding it over sealed joints. Dragging can tear the bead before it has fully cured.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
Surface by surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A neat silicone joint keeps it out.
Skirting boards
Skirting gaps are one of the most common floor joints we seal. We take out any cracked caulk before sealing so the bead sits on a clean surface.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
