What happens on the day
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- 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.
- We tool it neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

About our floor joint sealing in Nethy Bridge
Good floor joints come down to the right product and clean, prepared edges. Old caulk, grout or failed sealant comes out first, then clean, back and seal the joint. We’re often asked to deal with rigid edge joints in tiled floors and skirting caulk that keeps splitting, on thresholds, skirting boards and tiled floors.
Many newer homes in Scotland are timber-framed and settle as they dry out, which shows as gaps at skirtings and floor joints. In older homes, timber floors move through the year too.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Common questions in Nethy Bridge
Is Nethy Bridge in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes, Nethy Bridge is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is Nethy Bridge within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Why has a gap opened under my skirting?
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking like caulk.
Do you seal warehouse floor joints?
Yes, including warehouses, units, shops and offices. Work can be planned around your hours with out-of-hours work where needed.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

New homes and floors in Nethy Bridge
Floors around Highland run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they do not all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
Community buildings like Abernethy Parish Church are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. In and around Nethy Bridge, as anywhere, good floor joint sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What the job involves on each surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A neat silicone joint keeps it out.
Thresholds
Thresholds between rooms meet two floors and often a door frame. We seal them with a flexible sealant that suits both sides.
Why deal with it now?
Dirt builds up in open joints and makes the floor look worn. A neat sealed joint is easier to clean and look tidier. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

What we cannot put right
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
- Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing
- Tiles that have lifted or broken
If you’re not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Commercial floors
- Concrete floor joints
- Thresholds
- Tiled floors
- Skirting boards
- Wet room & bathroom floors
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
Keep off the joint for the time we give you. Light foot traffic is generally fine sooner than wet cleaning or wheels.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and the edges sound.
