Floor joint sealing in Murrayfield, done properly
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone because it handles water. We work on commercial floors, wet room & bathroom floors and concrete floor joints, and the jobs we see most are skirting caulk that keeps splitting and gaps between floors and kitchen plinths.
In a Scottish city, commercial floors have movement joints and thresholds that wear under traffic. In Murrayfield, we cover those floor joints as well as plot mastic for developers.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Murrayfield
Is floor joint sealing in Murrayfield guaranteed?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
I let a flat near Haymarket station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Often, yes. We replace the grout along a suitable line with flexible sealant in a matching colour. Loose or cracked tiles need a tiler first.
Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What does floor joint sealing cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Murrayfield.
Do you cover Murrayfield?
We do. Murrayfield is part of the area we cover, and the service is the same as everywhere else.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, with photos by email if possible. If we need more, we will ask.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Don’t fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Ask before painting over a sealed joint
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Keeping the edges drier helps the sealant last longer.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Sealing them early protects the edges and the surface smoother.
New homes and floors in Murrayfield
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles. Across Edinburgh, 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. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
If you let a flat or house near Haymarket station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. Community buildings like Murrayfield Parish Church are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

How it works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes, including the tidy-up. In a Scottish city, a lot of jobs are in tenement flats, up a common stair from a shared close. In Murrayfield, it helps to know the floor, the door entry arrangements and the nearest parking.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- We remove what’s in the joint now.
- The joint is vacuumed clean and backing fitted where needed.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us about any water getting in

Advice
Common problems we fix in Murrayfield
Concrete floor joints break down when traffic runs over open or failed joints. Hard wheels damage the joint edges until the joint widens.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Chipped and open joints in warehouse floors
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Tiled floors with no room to move
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Mary Erskine School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
Questions to ask before you book
