Viewhill: your questions answered

Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is Viewhill in your area for floor joint sealing?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Viewhill is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Will I be able to paint over the new joint?
On joints you want to paint, yes. Silicone in bathrooms and kitchens cannot be painted.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, for a year. If anything is not right with the work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

Floor joint sealing in Viewhill, done properly
Large tiled floors, and those over underfloor heating, often need movement joints. Where one is needed, we rake out the grout along the right line and replace it with flexible sealant. If you have floor edges that trap water and grime and gaps between floors and kitchen plinths, we can put it right, on skirting boards, concrete floor joints and commercial floors alike.
For a place like Viewhill, 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.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

How the job changes by surface
Thresholds
Where a tiled floor meets timber or carpet, the joint takes movement from both sides. We bridge them with a flexible bead.
Tiled floors
Large or heated tiled floors need room to move. We replace grout with flexible sealant along the right lines.
How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon for most homes. Somewhere like Viewhill may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First we check the joint and the floor and agree which sealant suits it.
- We take out any old caulk, sealant or grout along the line.
- We clean and vacuum the joint and fit backing where the depth needs setting.
- We apply a flexible sealant, or a floor-joint product on concrete, in a suitable colour.
- Finally we tool it smooth and explain when the floor can be used and cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

What else we do in Viewhill
Do you need floor joint sealing in Viewhill?
Concrete floor joints break down when traffic runs over open or failed joints. Pallet trucks and trolleys knock the edges away until the joint widens.
The most common problems we see are:
- Open joints around bathroom floor edges
- Skirting caulk that keeps splitting
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Grout used at the floor edge instead of sealant
If you let a flat or house near Inverness Airport station, gaps at skirtings and thresholds are worth sealing between tenancies.
What your quote should include
- Are they insured?
- Which colour the sealant will be
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- When the joint can take water or movement
What affects the quote in Viewhill
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How many areas need sealing
- Which sealant suits the joint
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Where the property is
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What floor joint sealing looks like in Viewhill
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.
For buildings such as Barn Church, joints in its floors, skirtings and thresholds need resealing as they wear. Schools such as Culloden Academy are buildings too, and floor joints in corridors, halls and entrances take heavy wear and need resealing before the edges break up.

Why deal with it now?
Waiting until the next redecoration can mean a winter of draughts and dirt in the gaps. It’s a quick job to seal them now for most homes. In an older home around Viewhill, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
