About our new build mastic in Ballinluig

Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a failed shower or bath seal shouldn’t wait. If you are dealing with messy sealant that spoils new finishes and second-fix sealing on new plots, we can help.

Around smaller Scottish places like Ballinluig, new homes tend to be single plots or small developments. They need their sealant and floor joints finished just as carefully as on a big site.

All our work comes with our 12-month guarantee.

What we are called out for in Ballinluig

On many sites, sealant goes on in the final rush before handover. Dusty, unprimed joints are common, and the sealant sits on grit instead of the surface.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
  • Skirting joints opening in the first winter
  • Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
  • Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover

In and around Ballinluig, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • What product goes in the joint

Our hiring checklist

The process

Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots and we leave things clean and tidy. Around Ballinluig, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.

  1. First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
  2. Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out.
  3. We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
  4. We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
  5. We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
