What floor joint sealing looks like in Tibbermore
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up. Across Perth and Kinross, 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.
For buildings such as Tibbermore Parish Kirk, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear.

Floor joint sealing in Tibbermore, done properly
Floors move, and the joint where they meet a wall, skirting, threshold or another floor has to move with them. We seal skirting gaps, tiled floor movement joints and concrete floor joints. We work on thresholds, commercial floors and wet room & bathroom floors, and common reasons people get in touch are threshold joints that have opened or worn and concrete floor joints that have broken down.
Work in a place like Tibbermore is planned ahead, journey included. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.

What else we do in Tibbermore
When to call us in Tibbermore
Grout is rigid, so a tiled floor with nowhere to move cracks along a grout line. Cracks often run straight along a line of joints, where a flexible joint should have been.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Gaps at thresholds between rooms
- Grout cracking in a straight line across a floor
- Caulk that has cracked where the floor moves
- Open gaps along the bottom of skirting boards
For landlords with property near Perth station, open skirting and floor joints collect dirt and water, so seal them while the property is empty.

What happens on the day
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the length of joint, including the tidy-up. Outdoor work around Tibbermore depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- We look at the gap and the floor type and agree the right sealant.
- Whatever is in the joint now, whether caulk, grout or sealant, comes out.
- The joint is vacuumed clean, with backing fitted wherever depth matters.
- A flexible sealant, or a floor-joint sealant for concrete, is applied in a colour to suit.
- We tool the joint neatly and tell you when it can be walked on and cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
Caulk is quick and cheap, but it cracks where the joint moves or gets wet, so the gap reappears. A flexible sealant stretches instead, so the joint stays closed. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Yes. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months.
Do you seal floor joints in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes. Floor edges in bathrooms and kitchens get wet at every clean, so we seal them with silicone suited to wet areas.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Can grout be replaced with sealant on a tiled floor?
Often, yes, at the edges and along suitable lines. The grout is raked out and replaced with a flexible sealant in a colour to suit so the floor can move.
Do you seal warehouse floor joints?
Yes, including warehouses, units, shops and offices. We can plan around your opening times, and out-of-hours work can be arranged.
How soon can the floor be mopped?
You will get the times before we go. That depends on the product, and walking on it usually comes before mopping or wheeled traffic.
Quotes for floor joint sealing in Tibbermore

- How many areas need sealing
- When we can work, for business premises

Helping us quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the property is
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll explain what’s involved and send you a clear quote.
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
- Keep heavy wheels off new concrete joints until cured
- Don’t paint over silicone
- Keep floor cleaning water to a minimum at the edges
In commercial units, keep pallet trucks and heavy wheels off new joints until they’ve cured. Mark the area off so drivers avoid it while it cures.
In wet areas, an open floor joint lets water reach the subfloor. A sound seal stops that happening.
What sealant work can’t fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Damaged concrete that needs breaking out and repairing
- Loose, hollow or cracked tiles, which need a tiler
- Bouncy or failing floorboards
Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.
