How we handle floor joint sealing in Uig
Concrete floors in warehouses and units have joints that take heavy wear. Each is resealed with a floor-joint product suited to what runs over it. We’re often asked to deal with threshold joints that have opened or worn and concrete floor joints that have broken down, on thresholds, commercial floors and tiled floors.
Around smaller Scottish places like Uig, new homes tend to be single plots or small developments. Each needs its sealant and floor joints finished as carefully as on a big site.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Uig and across Highland.

What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for most rooms, longer for large commercial floors. Outdoor work around Uig depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- We clear the edges of the floor so the joints are easy to reach.
- Old material is removed from the joint.
- Edges are cleaned and dried.
- A flexible sealant suited to the floor is applied and smooth it.
- Finally, we check the work and talk you through aftercare.
Preparing for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Check the sealant is paintable before decorating
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Check skirting joints after the heating season
Mop with a well-wrung mop rather than flooding the floor. Keeping the edges drier helps the sealant last longer.
Open skirting gaps let in draughts, dust and sometimes insects. Sealing it keeps the room tidier and the edges sound.

Joints and finishes in Uig homes
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up. Floors around Highland run from suspended timber in older homes to concrete in newer houses and units, and each moves in its own way. That is why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal.
Managing a site like Uig Primary School? Then floor and threshold joints in busy corridors wear quickly and are best resealed early.

Surface by surface
Skirting boards
Gaps between skirting and floor open as timber and floors move. A flexible sealant closes the gap without cracking.
Commercial floors
Commercial floors take more traffic than most homes. We talk through the traffic and choose a sealant suited to it.
Can I do it myself?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
