Floor & skirting joints in Pitkerro, Dundee
Our applicators work in Pitkerro on sealing skirting-to-floor joints, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
About our floor joint sealing in Pitkerro
Across Pitkerro, 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. Common call-outs are for cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens and gaps opening between the floor and skirting, on thresholds, skirting boards and tiled floors.
In a Scottish city, commercial floors have movement joints and thresholds that wear under traffic. In Pitkerro, we cover those floor joints as well as plot mastic for developers.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Pitkerro and across Dundee.

Quotes for floor joint sealing in Pitkerro
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many areas need sealing
- Which sealant suits the joint
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The problem you’ve noticed
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Describe what needs sealing and we will explain what’s involved before giving you a price.
For landlords and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Use a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor
- Lift furniture rather than dragging it across joints
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Cone off the area if needed.
A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and stops it getting worse.

Different surfaces, different methods
Commercial floors
In commercial buildings, we can plan floor joint work around opening hours. We can arrange out-of-hours work where it’s needed.
Wet room and bathroom floors
In a wet room, the floor-to-wall joint is a key line of defence. We reseal it with a flexible silicone suited to wet areas, and we will tell you if the leak seems to come from elsewhere.
Questions from Pitkerro
Is there a guarantee on floor joint sealing in Pitkerro?
All our work, in Pitkerro and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
I let a flat near Dundee station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
It depends on the sealant, so let us know first. We use a paintable flexible sealant on joints you plan to paint and wet areas get silicone.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Is caulk good enough for skirting?
Because caulk cracks where there’s movement or water. Skirting joints move with the floor, so a flexible sealant suits them better.
When can I walk on the floor?
It depends on the product and the conditions. Before we leave, we tell you when it can be walked on, mopped and driven over so there’s no guesswork.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. More than one area can go on one quote.

Advice
Floor joint sealing in Pitkerro: local notes
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles. Floors around Dundee 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.
For landlords with property near Dundee station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. For buildings such as St Ninian's Episcopal Church, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others. If you look after a building such as Craigie High School, floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
