How it works
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Many homes in Scotland’s cities are tenement flats, reached through a shared close and up a common stair. In Partick, it helps to know the floor, the door entry arrangements and the nearest parking.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- We clean and dry the edges of the joint.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied.
- We check the joints and explain the aftercare.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us if parking is tricky

About our floor joint sealing in Partick
In commercial and industrial units, concrete floor joints take a hammering from wheels and traffic. We reseal them with a product chosen for the movement and the traffic. If you have rigid edge joints in tiled floors and cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a Scottish city, commercial floors have movement joints and thresholds that wear under traffic. Those joints, and plot mastic for developers, are part of the work we cover in Partick.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How the job changes by surface
Commercial floors
Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Skirting boards
On painted skirting, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. In wet rooms and kitchens, silicone is usually better.
Joints and finishes in Partick homes
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles. Floors around Glasgow run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that.
Managing a site like St Peter's Boys School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early. If you let a flat or house near Partick station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

Partick: your questions answered
Is floor joint sealing in Partick guaranteed?
All our work, in Partick and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Can you do floor joint sealing in Partick?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Partick is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Caulk cannot cope with movement or water. Floor edges move through the year, so a flexible sealant suits them better.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
How we quote for floor joint sealing
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- When we can work, for business premises
- Any mould that needs treating
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.
Helping us quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- Where the property is
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- The type of property
- How we’d reach the joints
For a quote, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We will give you a clear quote before any work starts.
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Look at floor joints each spring
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Don’t slide heavy items over sealed joints
Do not paint over silicone. If you plan to paint, we will use a paintable product.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. A flexible joint added early helps protect the tiles themselves.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Partick, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
