New build mastic for homes and businesses in An t-Aodann Ban
A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber dries and shrinks, and baths and trays settle, and sealant applied in a hurry at handover can split. If you are dealing with cracks appearing as a new home settles and sealant work across a run of new homes, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Work in a place like An t-Aodann Ban is planned ahead, journey included. Outdoor plot mastic needs dry weather, but indoor floor and skirting joints can be sealed whatever the forecast.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Highland.

An t-Aodann Ban questions
Do you cover smaller places like An t-Aodann Ban?
Yes, An t-Aodann Ban is covered. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you cover An t-Aodann Ban for new build mastic?
Yes, An t-Aodann Ban is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
When is the best time to reseal in a new build?
Any seal that is leaking should be redone right away. Cosmetic gaps can wait until the first year or two of movement has passed.
Do you use white or clear sealant?
That depends on what the joint meets: white or clear in most bathrooms, and a colour to suit worktops, frames and floors elsewhere. We agree the colour before any work starts.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we will put it right.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
New homes and floors in An t-Aodann Ban
An t-Aodann Ban is close to the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so any gaps are best picked up early. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
For jobs in and around An t-Aodann Ban, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

Related advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
How the job changes by surface
Plot handovers
Developers can send the plot schedule and specification and we will quote. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, frames and floors.
Skirting and floors
Floors and skirting move as the house dries and the heating runs. We use a flexible product rather than caulk in a colour to suit.

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents, which can damage the surface.
The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak over time.
When it isn’t the sealant
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- Broken tiles or a split tray
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.

Signs you need new build mastic in An t-Aodann Ban
Once people move in, baths and trays take weight and bed down. If a bath wasn’t filled when it was sealed, the bead is stretched the first time it’s used and the sealant may split.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
Around An t-Aodann Ban, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
