About our floor joint sealing in Murthly
Across Murthly, we seal floor and skirting joints in homes and businesses. We start by checking the floor type and the joint, since that decides which sealant suits. We work on skirting boards, concrete floor joints and commercial floors, and people most often call us about gaps opening between the floor and skirting and gaps between floors and kitchen plinths.
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and it settles over the first years, which shows as gaps at skirtings and floor joints. In older homes, timber floors move through the year too.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Movement too big for a sealant joint
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
- A tiled floor that needs relaying

When to call us in Murthly
An open floor joint fills with dirt and water. In wet areas, water runs into the gap at every clean and can reach the subfloor.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Open joints that fill with dirt
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
For buildings such as United Presbyterian Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether you can choose the colour
- When the joint can take water or movement
- The length of the guarantee
Floor joint sealing around Murthly
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. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.
Rented homes near Dunkeld & Birnam station change hands often, and gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.

Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Avoid sloshing water against skirting
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
Keep heavy furniture from dragging across the joints. Dragging can tear the bead before it has fully cured.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.
How the job changes by surface
Thresholds
A threshold is where floors and frames meet. We seal them with a flexible sealant that suits both sides.
Commercial floors
Floor joint work in businesses can be planned around your hours. Out-of-hours working can be arranged where it’s needed.
What we do, step by step
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Outdoor work around Murthly depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We start by checking the floor, the joint and what traffic it takes.
- 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
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
