Floor joint sealing in Stronmilchan
Where skirting is painted, we can use a flexible sealant that takes paint. In wet areas we’d normally use silicone, which is not made to be painted. If you’re dealing with failed joint filler in concrete floors and worn sealant at door thresholds, we can help.
For a place like Stronmilchan, the journey and access are planned in advance. Outdoor plot mastic needs dry weather, but indoor floor and skirting joints can be sealed whatever the forecast.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Different surfaces, different methods
Tiled floors
The edge of a tiled floor, where it meets the wall or skirting, should be a flexible joint. We rake out any grout there and reseal.
Thresholds
Thresholds between rooms meet two floors and often a door frame. A flexible sealant suits both floor finishes.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Mark off resealed joints in warehouses
- Avoid caulk in bathrooms and kitchens
- Use furniture pads near skirting
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
Avoid flooding the floor when you clean. Less water at the edges helps the joints last.
Concrete joints damaged by traffic get worse quickly. Sealing them early protects the edges and the surface smoother.
Joints and finishes in Stronmilchan homes
Across Argyll and Bute, 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. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
Letting a property close to Dalmally station? Then open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty. Community buildings like Glenorchy Parish Church are part of the picture too: joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Related advice
DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What happens if it’s left?
An open concrete floor joint gets wider every time something heavy crosses it. A sealed joint supports the edges before they need a bigger repair. 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.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
Why us?
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
