Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

New build mastic in Bridge of Earn
Developers send us the plot schedule and we work through it. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover with a sealant suited to each area. Common call-outs are for gaps behind new kitchen upstands and leaking shower tray seals in a new home, across bathrooms & en suites, show homes and kitchens.
New homes in smaller Scottish places are often single plots, self-builds or small developments. Each needs its sealant and floor joints finished as carefully as on a big site.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Common questions in Bridge of Earn
Is Bridge of Earn in your area for new build mastic?
Yes, Bridge of Earn is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
Do you work for landlords with property near Perth station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?
Report it to the builder first while you’re covered. If it is not resolved, we’ll cut it out and reseal it.
How long does new build mastic take?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Where do you work from?
We are a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What does new build mastic cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before work begins.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
Why deal with it now?
A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it will not bond to the old layer. Taking it all out and starting again is the only way to get a lasting seal. In a place like Bridge of Earn, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

What we are called out for in Bridge of Earn
Later trades and the final clean can damage fresh sealant. If it’s disturbed before curing, the joint can be left weak, and the problem shows up after you move in.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
For new homes near Perth station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.

How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Do not seal over failed sealant yourself
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Silicone is usually left for about a day to cure enough for use.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you’re in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you.
