Our new build mastic service in Clackmannanshire
Some owners wait for the first year’s movement before having joints redone. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a failed shower or bath seal shouldn’t wait. Typical jobs include gaps between new skirting and floors and messy sealant that spoils new finishes, on windows & doors, plot handovers and show homes.
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes a few hours in a single home, depending on the size of the job.
- Each joint is checked for movement before work begins.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
- The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.
What you’ll pay
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What you get with us
- We agree the colour with you first
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Full insurance on every job
- We never seal over old sealant

New build mastic across Clackmannanshire: local notes
Across Clackmannanshire, from Alloa, Tullibody and Tillicoultry outwards, new homes go up alongside older streets. Snagging in new homes and floor joints in older ones are both part of the work.
We work across all of Scotland, from the cities to the islands, and Clackmannanshire is part of that. Journeys are planned ahead, and outside jobs are booked around the forecast. Clackmannanshire includes coastal places, where outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland. Joints on seaward walls tend to fail first.
Alloa: Around Alloa, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it. For new homes near Alloa station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
What affects the cost of new build mastic
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Any mould that needs treating
- The product the joint needs
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How much there is to do
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Whether it’s a home or a business
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
When something else is needed
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- Damaged fittings that need replacing
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
Signs you need new build mastic
Sealant is often one of the last jobs before handover. Joints are not always cleaned of dust or primed, and the sealant sits on grit instead of the surface.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home

Clackmannanshire: your questions answered
Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?
If you are still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, report it to them first. If they’re slow or the fix does not last, we can help.
Can I send you 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 information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Do you work in Clackmannanshire?
Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
