How we handle new build mastic in Ardeer
A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water gets into the floor or walls. We work on show homes, bathrooms & en suites and skirting & floors, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked sealant around new window and door frames and gaps opening as the house dries out and settles.
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and it settles over the first years, which shows as gaps at skirtings and floor joints. Older stone-built homes, meanwhile, often have timber floors that move with the seasons.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
Keep an eye on the joints over the first couple of years. Small gaps can appear as the house dries.
Don’t let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. After that, putting it right may fall to you so report it promptly.

What else we do in Ardeer
Do you need new build mastic in Ardeer?
Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Neither lasts long.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
Around Ardeer, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Landlord and commercial work in Ardeer
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. For a place like Ardeer, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
- Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
- We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.
Getting ready for the visit

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Plot handovers
- Show homes
- Skirting & floors
- Windows & doors
- Kitchens
- Bathrooms & en suites
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
New homes and floors in Ardeer
Ardeer 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. The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, which means plot mastic and the sealant in new homes has to cope with a lot of rain.
For new homes near Stevenston station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

Ardeer questions
Will you come out to Ardeer?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Stevenston station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Should I wait before resealing?
For failed seals that let water through, the best time is now. For small cosmetic gaps, waiting until the house has settled can save doing them twice.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
