Floor joint sealing in Plocrapool, done properly
Painted skirting can be sealed with a flexible product that can be painted over. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone. We are often asked to deal with cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint and caulk that has cracked where the floor moves, across concrete floor joints, wet room & bathroom floors and skirting boards.
Work in a place like Plocrapool is planned ahead, journey included. Outdoor plot mastic needs dry weather, but indoor floor and skirting joints can be sealed whatever the forecast.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How the visit works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint. Around Plocrapool, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- First, the floor type, the gap and the traffic are checked.
- Any old caulk, grout or sealant is raked or cut out.
- We vacuum out the joint and add backing where the depth needs setting.
- The chosen sealant goes in, coloured to suit the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
How to prepare

- Tiled floors with no room to move
- Concrete floor joints that have broken down

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the 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.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

What floor joint sealing looks like in Plocrapool
Floors around Na h-Eileanan Siar 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. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
Around Plocrapool, as everywhere, floor joint sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
