Floor joint sealing around Rubha Ban
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. Island jobs need planning around ferries and the weather, so the more notice, the better.
For buildings such as St Michael's Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Floor joint sealing for homes and businesses in Rubha Ban
Thresholds are where two floors, or a floor and a door, meet. We seal them with a flexible sealant suited to the floor finishes either side. If you’re dealing with grout cracking in a straight line across a floor and worn sealant at door thresholds, we can help, whatever the surface.
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.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Act on grout cracks that run in a straight line
- Vacuum floor joints regularly to stop grit building up
Keep heavy furniture from dragging across the joints. Dragging can tear the bead especially in the first few days.
Water getting into floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens can damage what’s underneath. Resealing early keeps it out.
When to call us in Rubha Ban
Timber floors and skirting shrink and swell through the year. In winter, with the heating on, timber dries and gaps open.
People usually contact us when they notice one of these:
- Failed seals where bathroom floors meet baths and panels
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
- Skirting that has pulled away from the floor
Around Rubha Ban, as everywhere, floor joint sealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Before you book anyone
- Are they insured?
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
Why deal with it now?
Leaving skirting gaps until the next decorating job lets dirt and draughts in. It’s a quick job to seal them now. In an older home around Rubha Ban, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Questions from Rubha Ban
Will you come out to Rubha Ban?
Yes. Rubha Ban is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is floor joint sealing in Rubha Ban guaranteed?
All our work, in Rubha Ban and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Is it messy?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Can you add a movement joint to a tiled floor?
Often, yes. We replace the grout along a suitable line with flexible sealant. If tiles are loose, that needs fixing first.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

- Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing
