New build mastic for homes and businesses in Blairgowrie and Rattray
Failed shower seals, gaps along the skirting and messy beads are common items on a new-home snagging list. If you’re still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, tell them first and if that stalls, we can do it. We work on kitchens, windows & doors and bathrooms & en suites, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked sealant around new window and door frames and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging.
Around Blairgowrie and Rattray, shops and business units have floor joints that break down under traffic. Sealing them before the edges break up saves a bigger repair.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Advice
Blairgowrie and Rattray questions
What’s the best way to get a price for new build mastic in Blairgowrie and Rattray?
Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing and where. You will get a clear, fixed price before any work starts.
Is new build mastic in Blairgowrie and Rattray guaranteed?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Will it make a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We’ll give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?
There are usually two causes: the house moving as it dries, and sealant that never bonded properly. A proper reseal deals with both.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Leave it or put it right?
A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. In Blairgowrie and Rattray, wind and rain soon get through failed outside joints. Indoors, failed sealant lets water into floors and ceilings.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.
What you get with us
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- Homes, businesses and hotels

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Record problems with dated pictures
Don’t stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant and protects the rest of the house.
