What floor joint sealing looks like in Roberton
Across South Lanarkshire, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and they do not 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.
In and around Roberton, as anywhere, good floor joint sealing starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. If you look after a church, hall or community building such as Roberton Parish Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

What the job involves on each surface
Commercial floors
Commercial washrooms and kitchens have floor joints that get wet constantly. They’re resealed with a flexible, water-resistant sealant.
Thresholds
Where a tiled floor meets timber or carpet, the joint takes movement from both sides. We bridge them with a flexible bead.
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Why deal with it now?
Water that gets past a floor joint can damage the floor beneath. Sealing them now keeps the problem at the surface. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Roberton
Will you come out to Roberton?
Yes, Roberton is covered. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is floor joint sealing in Roberton guaranteed?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location, with photos by email if possible. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Why does the gap under my skirting keep coming back?
Generally it’s movement: heating drying the timber, or a filler that is too rigid. A flexible bead keeps up with the movement.
Can you use decorators’ caulk instead?
Caulk cannot cope with movement or water. Floor edges move through the year, so we use a flexible sealant that stretches.
When can I walk on the floor?
We give you a cure time for each joint. Feet are generally fine first, then mopping, then heavy wheels in most cases.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
What affects the cost of floor joint sealing
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- The type of sealant required
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Helping us quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Whether it’s a home or a business
