How we quote for new build mastic
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The product the joint needs
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Simply drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and describe the job.
What happens if it’s left?
A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it can’t bond to what’s underneath. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. In a tenement flat in Blairdardie, a failed seal is rarely just your problem: water can reach the flat below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-stopping affect the whole stair.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
Do you take on second-fix sealing for builders?

My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?
Your builder, if you are still in their snagging or warranty period. If that doesn’t work out, we’re happy to quote with our one-year guarantee.
How long does the job take?
Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?
There are normally two causes: the house moving as it dries, and sealant that never bonded properly. Cutting it out and resealing properly fixes both.
How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Keep photos and emails about snagging items
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
Do not stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray in the first few weeks. Report any movement in a bath or tray.
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 in a busy bathroom.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes a few hours in a single home, depending on how much there is to do. Inside a flat in Blairdardie, the job is planned with you; outside, shared parts may need the factor or other owners involved. It helps to know which it is when you get in touch.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- 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.
- We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Advice
New homes and floors in Blairdardie
Blairdardie is in the west of Scotland, which is wetter than the east, so there’s plenty of rain for plot mastic and the sealant in new homes to keep out. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
Around Blairdardie, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it. For new homes near Drumchapel station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
