New build mastic in Conon Bridge, done properly

If your new home has a leaking shower seal, open skirting joints or untidy sealant, we can help. While the builder’s snagging or warranty period runs, report it to them first. Typical jobs include shower seals failing in the first year or two and worktop and upstand sealant coming away, on kitchens, bathrooms & en suites and windows & doors.

Many newer homes in Scotland are timber-framed and settle as they dry out, so skirting and floor joints can open up. Older stone-built homes, meanwhile, often have timber floors that move with the seasons.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

What the job involves on each surface

Bathrooms and en suites

En suite showers are a common source of leaks into the room below. A proper reseal keeps water in the tray.

Skirting and floors

Gaps under skirting are one of the most common new-build snags. A flexible sealant closes it without cracking like caulk.

Joints and finishes in Conon Bridge homes

Conon Bridge is within about 1 mile of the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Conon Bridge is in the west of Scotland, which is wetter than the east, so there’s plenty of rain for plot mastic and the sealant in new homes to keep out.

For new homes near Conon Bridge station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh. In and around Conon Bridge, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

DIY versus a professional finish

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

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.

What happens if it’s left?

For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Every return visit for a failed seal takes time and most come down to preparation. Around Conon Bridge, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

What you get with us

  • A 12-month guarantee on all work
  • Homes, businesses and hotels
  • We leave the area clean and tidy
  • Over 20 years’ experience

What affects the cost of new build mastic

The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The product the joint needs
  • Access and height

The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

What we need to know

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • Where the property is
  • If someone has resealed it before

Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Simply send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and describe the job.

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a short description of the job.

How long should I leave it?

It depends on the product and the temperature. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.

Is it worth trying it myself?

Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Landlord and commercial work in Conon Bridge

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

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 a few hours in a single home. Outside jobs in Conon Bridge need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.

  1. We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
  2. Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out.
  3. Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
  4. Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
  5. Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Clear the area around the work
