How we handle floor joint sealing in Riccarton
Wet-area floor joints keep water out of the gap behind skirting and plinths. A flexible silicone seal keeps it out and stops dirt collecting. If you are dealing with gaps at thresholds between rooms and open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards, we can help, whatever the surface.
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and it settles over the first years, so skirting and floor joints can open up. Older stone-built homes, meanwhile, often have timber floors that move with the seasons.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Concrete floors have sawn or formed joints to control cracking. They’re resealed with a product chosen for what runs over them.
Thresholds

Advice
Riccarton: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Kilmarnock station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Will you come out to Riccarton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
How long does floor joint sealing take?
Most jobs take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We will suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
How much does floor joint sealing cost in Riccarton?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
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, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Floor joint sealing around Riccarton
Floors around East Ayrshire run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
Schools such as Kilmarnock Academy are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic. For landlords with property near Kilmarnock station, a tidy floor and skirting joint helps a rental look ready for the next tenant.

What sealant work cannot fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Concrete repairs beyond the joint
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
If you are not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Thresholds
- Skirting boards
- Tiled floors
- Concrete floor joints
- Commercial floors
Why deal with it now?
Filling a skirting gap with caulk looks fine at first, but the movement soon cracks it. A flexible sealant moves with the floor, so the joint stays closed. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
