New-build mastic & snagging in Broxburn, West Lothian
New build mastic for Broxburn, by sealant specialists with 20+ years’ experience. Rated 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews.
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not seal over failed sealant yourself
- Record problems with dated photos
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Most silicones need around a day to cure enough for use.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Dealing with it before it goes black saves a harder job later.
About our new build mastic in Broxburn
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. Each joint is cleaned of dust and primed where the product calls for it, so the sealant actually sticks. We work on show homes, kitchens and plot handovers, and the jobs we see most are cracked caulk along new skirting and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list.
New homes in smaller Scottish places are often single plots, self-builds or small developments. They need their sealant and floor joints finished just as carefully as on a big site.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Any mould that needs treating
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The product the joint needs
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Broxburn: your questions answered
Is Broxburn within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Uphall station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.
Will you just run a new bead over the existing one?
No. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to the old layer, so it soon lifts and traps water. The old sealant always comes out first.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Surface by surface
Show homes
Bathrooms, kitchens and frames in show homes are sealed or resealed to a neat finish to a tidy standard. We’ll plan around viewing times.
Skirting and floors
New homes often develop a gap between skirting and floor. A flexible sealant closes it without cracking like caulk.
DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Outside jobs in Broxburn need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out, with no layer left behind.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us if parking is tricky
