New build mastic in Aberfeldy, done properly

New homes move as they dry out. Timber shrinks, plaster dries and baths and trays bed down, so sealant that was laid quickly before handover often cracks. If you are dealing with gaps behind new kitchen upstands and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Many newer homes in Scotland are timber-framed and settle as they dry out, so skirting and floor joints can open up. Older stone-built homes, meanwhile, often have timber floors that move with the seasons.

Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Perth and Kinross.

What sealant work can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:

  • Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
  • Plumbing faults behind the sealant
  • Damaged fittings that need replacing

What affects the quote in Aberfeldy

You will get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:

  • The product the joint needs
  • Access and height
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • How many areas need sealing

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Helping us quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Whether it has been sealed before

Your questions about new build mastic in Aberfeldy

Is Aberfeldy in your area for new build mastic?

Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Aberfeldy is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.

Do you cover smaller places like Aberfeldy?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Do I have to be there?

Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.

Can you do plot mastic on a new development?

Yes. We work through plots to your schedule. Tell us the plots and the joints involved for a clear quote.

Can I do it myself?

It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

What do you put in the joint?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.

Can you work from my snagging list?

Yes. Send it with photos and we’ll quote for the sealant items. Items that need a plumber, tiler or the builder are flagged.

What we’re called out for in Aberfeldy

On many sites, sealant goes on in the final rush before handover. Joints are not always cleaned of dust or primed, so the bead never bonds properly.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Cracked caulk along new skirting
  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles
  • Internal frame sealant that has split
  • Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build

For jobs in and around Aberfeldy, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. For a place like Aberfeldy, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.

  1. Each joint is checked for movement before we start.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
  3. Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
  4. New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
  5. The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Surface by surface

Windows and doors

Draughts around new frames are often a sealant gap. We look at the joints and reseal where needed.

Show homes

In a show home, the sealant is on display. Every bead is neat and coloured to suit the room.

Leave it or put it right?

Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.

Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.
