New build mastic in Burnbrae
Building dust is behind a lot of failed new-build sealant. Each joint is cleaned of dust and primed where the product calls for it, so the sealant actually sticks. Common call-outs are for cracks appearing as a new home settles and worktop and upstand sealant coming away, on plot handovers, windows & doors and bathrooms & en suites.
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and it settles over the first years, so skirting and floor joints can open up. Older stone-built homes, meanwhile, often have timber floors that move with the seasons.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Leave it or put it right?
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but a leaking seal can’t. If you’re unsure which you have, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with pictures and we will tell you. In an older home around Burnbrae, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours in a single home, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Outside jobs in Burnbrae need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out.
- We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
- We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice
Do you need new build mastic in Burnbrae?
Baths and trays settle under load once the home is lived in. A bath sealed empty drops slightly when filled, straining the joint and the sealant may split.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
If you’ve bought a new home near Shotts station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Burnbrae: your questions answered
Can you do new build mastic in Burnbrae?

Can tenants book the work?

Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?
That depends on what the joint meets: white or clear for most sanitary joints, colours for worktops, floors and frames. We agree the colour before any work starts.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Don’t wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
Keep the bathroom ventilated, especially in the first year. Use the extractor fan or open a window after showers to help keep mould away.
If a shower tray or bath seal splits in the first year, look for movement. Getting it resealed properly, and any movement checked, stops it recurring.
What the job involves on each surface
Kitchens
Beside the sink, the joint takes water every day. A kitchen sealant goes in there suited to the job.
Show homes
In a show home, the sealant is on display. Every bead is neat and coloured to suit the room.
What sealant work can’t fix
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- A tray or bath that is not properly supported, until it’s fixed
- Broken tiles or a split tray
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.
