The most common problems we see are:
- Worn sealant at door thresholds
- Dirt and water collecting in open floor joints
- Cracked grout where a tiled floor needs a movement joint
- Failed joint filler in concrete floors
If you look after a building such as Forrester High School, entrance and corridor floor joints take a lot of traffic.

Floor joint sealing in Wester Broom
In commercial and industrial units, concrete floor joints take a hammering from wheels and traffic. Each is resealed with a floor-joint product suited to what runs over it. If you have skirting caulk that keeps splitting and threshold joints that have opened or worn, we can put it right, on concrete floor joints, thresholds and commercial floors alike.
In a Scottish city, commercial floors have movement joints and thresholds that wear under traffic. Those joints, and plot mastic for developers, are part of the work we cover in Wester Broom.

Joints and finishes in Wester Broom homes
Across Edinburgh, floors range from older suspended timber floors to concrete slabs in newer homes and commercial units, and each moves in its own way. That’s why the skirting and threshold joints need a flexible seal. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.

Your questions about floor joint sealing in Wester Broom
Is floor joint sealing in Wester Broom guaranteed?
All our work, in Wester Broom and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you work for landlords with property near South Gyle station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
Can sealant along the skirting be painted?
For painted skirting, we use a flexible product that can be painted. Silicone is not made to be painted, so it’s kept for wet areas and unpainted joints.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Do you seal warehouse floor joints?
Yes, from warehouses and units to offices and shops. We can plan around your opening times, and out-of-hours work can be arranged.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.
What happens if it’s left?
Floor joints left open collect dirt that is hard to clean out, and they look untidy. A neat sealed joint is easier to clean. In a tenement flat in Wester Broom, a failed seal is rarely just your problem: water can reach the flat below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-stopping affect the whole stair.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Cone off fresh joints until they’re ready
- Have a cracking tiled floor checked before tiles break
- Don’t fill floor joints with caulk where they move or get wet
- Keep dirt out of the joints
Keep heavy furniture from dragging across the joints. Sharp edges can cut the sealant before it has fully cured.
Sealing a gap while it’s small is a quick job. Left alone, they collect dirt and widen over time.
Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
