What happens if it’s left?
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint. In a place like Redcloak, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.

Floor joint sealing in Redcloak
A threshold joint has to cope with feet, movement and sometimes water. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side. We work on concrete floor joints, tiled floors and skirting boards, and people most often call us about caulk that has cracked where the floor moves and chipped and open joints in warehouse floors.
New homes in smaller Scottish places are often single plots, self-builds or small developments. Each needs its sealant and floor joints finished as carefully as on a big site.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Redcloak as everywhere else we work.

Different surfaces, different methods
Skirting boards
If the skirting is painted, a paintable flexible sealant works well. Where water is involved, silicone is the better choice.
Wet room and bathroom floors
Bathroom floors meet baths, trays, panels and skirting. We seal them with anti-fungal sanitary silicone to keep water out of the edges.
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Do not slide heavy items over sealed joints
- Keep dirt out of the joints
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
Keep heavy traffic off resealed concrete joints for the cure time we give you. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it until it’s ready.
A gap under the skirting collects dust and lets draughts through. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and stops it getting worse.
What affects the cost of floor joint sealing
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- The type of sealant required
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The old material and how stubborn it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The type of property
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
Every job is quoted individually. Simply email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and describe the job, and photos are welcome.
What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- 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
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about parking restrictions

- Movement too big for a sealant joint
- Leaks from a failed tanking system

Redcloak questions
Will you come out to Redcloak?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you do floor joint sealing in Redcloak?
Yes, Redcloak is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Why not just use caulk?
Not where the floor moves or gets wet. It splits once the floor shifts. A flexible sealant lasts longer there.
How long will you be here?
That depends on the amount of work, but most jobs take a few hours, depending on the length of joint. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
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.
Floor joint sealing in Redcloak: local notes
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. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
For buildings such as Fetteresso Old Parish Church And Graveyard, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. If you let a flat or house near Stonehaven station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies. If you look after a building such as Mackie Academy, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Around Redcloak
The closest station to Redcloak is Stonehaven station, roughly 0.8 miles south-east of the centre. Nearby you’ll also find Kincardine Community Hospital (0.6 miles south-east) and Stonehaven Tolbooth (1.7 miles south-east). Open spaces near Redcloak include Megray Hill.
DIY versus a professional finish
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.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
