Staxigoe Floor Joint Sealing
Our applicators work in Staxigoe on sealing skirting-to-floor joints, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and a 12-month guarantee.
- Gaps between floors and kitchen plinths
- Cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
Floor joint sealing in Staxigoe
Good floor joints come down to the right product and clean, prepared edges. Old caulk, grout or failed sealant comes out first, then clean, back and seal the joint. If you have cracked caulk along skirting in bathrooms and kitchens and concrete floor joints that have broken down, we can help.
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and it settles over the first years, which shows as gaps at skirtings and floor joints. Older stone-built homes, meanwhile, often have timber floors that move with the seasons.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What the job involves on each surface
Commercial floors
Shops, offices, warehouses and units all have floor joints that need sealing. The sealant is chosen for the traffic the floor takes.
Concrete floor joints
Concrete floors have sawn or formed joints to control cracking. We reseal them with a floor-joint product suited to the traffic.
Why deal with it now?
Regrouting a cracked line in a tiled floor rarely fixes it. The movement is still there, so the grout fails again. A flexible movement joint is the fix. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, 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.

What sealant work cannot fix
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Concrete repairs beyond the joint
- Failed waterproofing under a wet room floor
- Movement too big for a sealant joint
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Concrete floor joints
- Tiled floors

Floor joint sealing in Staxigoe: local notes
Across Highland, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. The joint at the skirting or threshold has to allow for that. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.
If you let a flat or house near Wick station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. Managing a site like Wick High School? Then floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.
Staxigoe is about 19 miles south-east of Thurso, in Highland. Anywhere in KW1, we can carry out floor joint sealing at your property. Staxigoe is one of 253 towns and villages in Highland we cover.
We cover every part of KW1 for floor joint sealing and the streets around it. You’ll find streets such as Elzy Road, Bobby Coghill Avenue and Elzy Place. If you’re just outside Staxigoe, we cover Wick (1 mile south-west), Ackergillshore (2 miles north-west), Whiterow (3 miles south-west), Reiss (4 miles north-west) and Haster (4 miles west). Island and remote addresses take a little more planning, so tell us where you are when you ask for a quote.

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:

Advice
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Look at floor joints each spring
Keep heavy furniture from dragging across the joints. Dragging can tear the bead before it has fully cured.
Cracks along tile grout lines come back unless the movement is dealt with. Adding a movement joint early can stop cracks spreading to the tiles.
