Floor Joint Sealing in Pitlochry
We cover Pitlochry for sealing skirting-to-floor joints, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. Sealing them now is a short job. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why Pitlochry customers choose us
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows

Floor joint sealing in Pitlochry
Across Pitlochry, we seal floor and skirting joints in homes and businesses. Each job starts with looking at the floor and the gap, since that decides which sealant suits. If you have open joints that fill with dirt and gaps opening between the floor and skirting, we can put it right, on concrete floor joints, thresholds and wet room & bathroom floors alike.
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.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

New homes and floors in Pitlochry
Floors around Perth and Kinross run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and they don’t all move the same way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.
Community buildings like Pitlochry Church of Scotland are part of the picture too: floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.

How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Get cracks along tile grout lines looked at early
- Do not paint over silicone
- Use furniture pads near skirting
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Keeping the edges drier helps the sealant last longer.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Floors that are uneven or need levelling
- Water getting under the tiles from elsewhere
- Structural movement or subsidence

What does floor joint sealing cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a short description of the job.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.
Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
