Burrelton New Build Mastic

- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
About our new build mastic in Burrelton
Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a seal that’s letting water through needs doing now. Common call-outs are for skirting joints opening in the first winter and gaps opening as the house dries out and settles, across windows & doors, show homes and kitchens.
Work in a place like Burrelton is planned ahead, journey included. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
How the job changes by surface
Show homes
We seal show-home bathrooms, kitchens and frames. Tell us when the home is open so we can plan around it.
Plot handovers
Good preparation at handover saves snagging later. Dust from the build is removed first and primer used where needed.
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant and the new finishes intact.
Leave it or put it right?
Resealing everything on a snagging list in one visit is usually simpler than chasing joints one at a time. It’s one visit, one quote and one set of cure times for the lot. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

When something else is needed
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go.

- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The failed sealant is removed completely down to clean surfaces.
- 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.

FAQs for Burrelton
What guarantee comes with new build mastic in Burrelton?
All our work, in Burrelton and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is Burrelton within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
How do I get a quote for new build mastic in Burrelton?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before we start.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties at once, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?
New homes dry out and move in their first couple of years, and sealant is often applied quickly onto dusty surfaces. Both lead to early failure.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
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. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
