Why act early in Markethill
Floor joints left open collect dirt that’s hard to clean out, and they look untidy. Sealed joints are easier to keep clean and look tidier. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.

Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Markethill
Large tiled floors, and those over underfloor heating, often need movement joints. Where one is needed, we rake out the grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant coloured to suit the grout. We’re often asked to deal with rigid edge joints in tiled floors and gaps opening between the floor and skirting, across skirting boards, commercial floors and wet room & bathroom floors.
For a place like Markethill, the journey and access are planned in advance. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.
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.

Floor joint sealing around Markethill
Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles. Across Perth and Kinross, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
In and around Markethill, as anywhere, good floor joint sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Surface by surface
Commercial floors
Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. We talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
Skirting boards
Skirting pulls away from the floor as floors shrink and settle. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking painted or coloured to match.
Your questions about floor joint sealing in Markethill
Is floor joint sealing in Markethill guaranteed?
All our work, in Markethill and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Is Markethill within the area you cover?
Yes. Markethill is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
How long will you be here?
That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. We will tell you when we quote.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you seal where the floor meets the bath panel?
Yes. These joints get wet every time the floor is cleaned, so we seal them with silicone suited to wet areas.

Landlord and commercial work in Markethill
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
- Concrete repairs beyond the joint
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What else we do in Markethill
What we’re called out for in Markethill
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. Heating dries timber and opens gaps along the skirting and they change again in summer.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Gaps opening between the floor and skirting
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
Community buildings like Abbey Church are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.
What your quote should include
- How the colour is chosen
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
