Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Rothesay
Across Rothesay, we seal floor and skirting joints in homes and businesses. Each job starts with looking at the floor and the gap, because the right sealant depends on both. We work on concrete floor joints, wet room & bathroom floors and commercial floors, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps opening between the floor and skirting and worn sealant at door thresholds.
Work in a place like Rothesay is planned ahead, journey included. Outdoor plot mastic needs dry weather, but indoor floor and skirting joints can be sealed whatever the forecast.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Argyll and Bute.

The process
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Somewhere like Rothesay may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- 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.
- We apply the sealant in a colour that suits the floor.
- The joint is tooled neatly and the cure time explained.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice
Other services in Rothesay
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A tiled floor that needs relaying
- Subfloor problems that need a flooring contractor
- Movement too big for a sealant joint
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Skirting boards
- Wet room & bathroom floors
- Commercial floors
- Thresholds
- Tiled floors
- Concrete floor joints
Why act early in Rothesay
Open joints along wet floors let water into the subfloor and behind skirting. 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.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before work begins.
Why us?
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- We never seal over old sealant
When to call us in Rothesay
Concrete floor joints break down when traffic runs over open or failed joints. Hard wheels damage the joint edges and the joint gets wider.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Floor edges that trap water and grime
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
Schools such as Rothesay Academy are buildings too, and entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
What floor joint sealing looks like in Rothesay
Floors around Argyll and Bute run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and 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.
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Andrews R.C. Church Hall, floor and skirting joints in halls and kitchens wear like any others.
