About our floor joint sealing in Navidale
Floors move, and the joint where they meet a wall, skirting, threshold or another floor has to move with them. We seal skirting gaps, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints with a sealant suited to the movement and traffic. We’re often asked to deal with gaps between floors and kitchen plinths and floor edges that trap water and grime, across skirting boards, concrete floor joints and wet room & bathroom floors.
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and it settles over the first years, which shows as gaps at skirtings and floor joints. Older stone-built homes, meanwhile, often have timber floors that move with the seasons.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What sealant work cannot fix
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Leaks from a failed tanking system

FAQs for Navidale
Will you come out to Navidale?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is Navidale in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Navidale is part of that. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
Do you use a paintable sealant?
Where you plan to paint, we do. Silicone does not take paint, so tell us your plans.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Floors shrink and settle, especially in the first year or two and through the heating season. Rigid fillers split, so we use a flexible sealant.
How much does floor joint sealing cost in Navidale?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing and where.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
What the job involves on each surface
Concrete floor joints
Concrete floors have sawn or formed joints to control cracking. We reseal them with a floor-joint product suited to the traffic.
Commercial floors
Floor joint work in businesses can be planned around your hours. We can arrange out-of-hours work if the floor is busy.
How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
Have a look at the joints once the heating season is over. Small gaps at the ends can be touched up.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it early keeps the room cleaner and stops it getting worse.
New homes and floors in Navidale
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles. Across Highland, 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 landlords with property near Helmsdale station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

Why act early in Navidale
An open concrete floor joint gets wider every time something heavy crosses it. Resealing it early protects the edges and keeps the damage down. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Common problems we fix in Navidale
Wheels crossing an unfilled concrete joint chip its edges. Pallet trucks and trolleys knock the edges away until the joint widens.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Threshold joints that have opened or worn

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.
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. All told, the work takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Outdoor work around Navidale depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors is not affected.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
