About our new build mastic in Badachro
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over with a sealant suited to each area. We are often asked to deal with smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging and gaps behind new kitchen upstands, across windows & doors, show homes and bathrooms & en suites.
Around smaller Scottish places like Badachro, new homes tend to be single plots or small developments. Each needs its sealant and floor joints finished as carefully as on a big site.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

When it isn’t the sealant
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
If you’re not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Is Badachro within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you take on second-fix sealing for builders?
Yes. Plot mastic and second-fix sealing for developers is part of our work. Send the schedule and any specification and we will give you a quote.
Should I try DIY first?
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.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. As well as householders, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Joints and finishes in Badachro homes
Badachro is within about 1 mile of the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, 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 Badachro, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish. Around Badachro, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Badachro is in Highland. Every kind of property in Badachro can book us for new build mastic. Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee. Our Highland coverage runs to 253 places, and Badachro is one of them.

What else we do in Badachro
The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours in a single home. For a place like Badachro, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- The failed sealant is removed completely down to clean surfaces.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
Preparing for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Advice
DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
How we quote for new build mastic
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- The size of the job
- How many areas need sealing
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Working hours on commercial sites
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear price for the lot.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- The address or postcode of the job
- The rough size of the job
For new build mastic in Badachro, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we’ll agree the price before any work begins.
Why act early in Badachro
DIY kits don’t solve the main problems with new-build sealant: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Cutting out, cleaning and priming are what make the difference. In a place like Badachro, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Badachro
- One-year guarantee on every job
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it as they wear the bead.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Small faults turn into leaks if left in a busy bathroom.
