How we handle new build mastic in Broomhill
We work in new homes and on new-build sites across Broomhill. One shower or a whole phase of plots, the method does not change: remove, clean, prime where needed, then a neat new bead. We work on kitchens, show homes and skirting & floors, and people most often call us about cracked caulk along new skirting and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list.
Older tenement flats usually have timber floors on joists, with skirting joints that open and close with the seasons. For a flat in Broomhill, a flexible sealant copes with that movement where filler would crack.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
Keep the bathroom ventilated, especially in the first year. Run the fan or open a window after bathing.
A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Getting it resealed properly, and any movement checked, stops it recurring.
New build mastic in Broomhill: local notes
Broomhill is within about 3 miles of the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
Around Broomhill, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it. For new homes near Aberdeen station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?
Report it to the builder first while you are covered. If it is not resolved, we will cut it out and reseal it.
Do you take on second-fix sealing for builders?
Yes. We work through plots to your schedule, room by room. Get in touch with the number of plots and the scope and we’ll quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
