About our floor joint sealing in Old Deer
We seal floor joints in homes, offices and commercial buildings across Old Deer. We start by checking the floor type and the joint, since that decides which sealant suits. Typical jobs include cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens and worn sealant at door thresholds, on concrete floor joints, skirting boards and tiled floors.
Many newer homes in Scotland are timber-framed and settle as they dry out, so skirting and floor joints can open up. In older homes, timber floors move through the year too.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

How we quote for floor joint sealing
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether the work is at height
- Any mould that needs treating
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.
What we need to know
When you call or email, these details help:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Roughly how big the job is
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Old Deer questions
Can you do floor joint sealing in Old Deer?
Yes, Old Deer is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is there a guarantee on floor joint sealing in Old Deer?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
What causes gaps between the floor and skirting?
It’s normally the floor moving: timber drying in winter, floors settling, or caulk that cannot stretch. A flexible bead keeps up with the movement.
Can tenants book the work?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
You’ll get the times before we go. It depends on the sealant, and walking on it usually comes before mopping or wheeled traffic.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we’re fully insured too.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
My floor grout keeps cracking in a line. Can you help?
Often, yes. Straight cracks in grout often show where a movement joint was needed. We replace that grout with a flexible joint.
What floor joint sealing looks like in Old Deer
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up. Floors around Aberdeenshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Community buildings like St Drostan's Episcopal Church are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Managing a site like Mintlaw Academy? Then entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

What the job involves on each surface
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floor edges get wet at every clean. A flexible seal stops water running into the gap.
Thresholds
Threshold joints get a lot of feet, so the sealant has to be tough as well as flexible and neatly finished.
Why deal with it now?
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. Sealing them now is a short job. 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.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.

Honest limits
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before we start. Sealant won’t put right:
- Tiles that have lifted or broken
- Structural movement or subsidence
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
If you’re not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Skirting boards
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Concrete floor joints
- Tiled floors
- Commercial floors
- Thresholds
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Walk round the room once a year and look at the edges
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Sweep along the edges of the floor
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
Do not paint over silicone. If the joint will be painted, tell us beforehand so we use a paintable sealant.
Small gaps are quick to seal. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen.
Landlord and commercial work in Old Deer
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Old Deer and across Aberdeenshire. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured for the work.
What we do, step by step
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is cleaned, vacuumed and backed where depth needs controlling.
- A flexible sealant, or a floor-joint sealant for concrete, is applied in a colour to suit.
- The joint is tooled to a neat finish and we tell you when it can take feet and a mop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
