About our new build mastic in Aberargie
Across Aberargie, we work for both new-home owners and the builders handing those homes over. One shower or a whole phase of plots, the method doesn’t change: cut out, clean, prime where needed and reseal neatly. If you are dealing with beads laid onto grit and dust from the build and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks, we can help.
Many newer homes in Scotland are timber-framed and settle as they dry out, which shows as gaps at skirtings and floor joints. In older homes, timber floors move through the year too.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Common questions in Aberargie
Will you come out to Aberargie?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is Aberargie in your area for new build mastic?
Yes, Aberargie is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?
It depends on whether water is getting through. Failed seals in wet areas need doing now, while small cosmetic gaps can wait a while.
Can tenants book the work?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?
A new house dries and settles for a year or two, and sealant is often rushed onto dusty, unprimed surfaces. Either can make it fail early.
Joints and finishes in Aberargie homes
Aberargie is close to the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
Whether the job is in Aberargie itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

Why deal with it now?
Small cosmetic gaps can wait for the house to settle, but water getting through can’t. If you are unsure which you have, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with pictures. 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.

Other services in Aberargie
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Landlord and commercial work in Aberargie
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
What happens on the day
On the day, we start by going over the job with you. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take a few hours in a single home. Outdoor work around Aberargie 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 go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Common problems we fix in Aberargie
On many sites, sealant goes on in the final rush before handover. Dusty, unprimed joints are common, so the bead never bonds properly.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
In and around Aberargie, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

How we quote for new build mastic
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The size of the job

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
