New build mastic in Craigiebank, done properly
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the new bead bonds properly rather than sitting on a layer of grit. We are often asked to deal with cracked caulk along new skirting and sealant work across a run of new homes, on plot handovers, show homes and bathrooms & en suites.
In older Scottish city flats, floors are often timber over joists, so skirting joints open and close through the year. For a flat in Craigiebank, a flexible sealant copes with that movement where filler would crack.
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Dundee.

Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you’re 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 fails, we can still redo it.
New homes and floors in Craigiebank
Craigiebank is close to the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so any gaps are best picked up early. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
If you’ve bought a new home near Dundee station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two. Around Craigiebank, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Why deal with it now?
The builder is generally the first port of call while the snagging or warranty period runs. If it keeps failing or is not dealt with, we can reseal it properly. Scottish rain finds any gap around a frame or wall joint, and in Craigiebank, damp can spread through stone and plaster before anyone sees it.
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.

How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, depending on how much there is to do. Many homes in Scotland’s cities are tenement flats, reached through a shared close and up a common stair. In Craigiebank, it helps to know the floor, the door entry arrangements and the nearest parking.
- Each joint is checked for movement before we start.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
- Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
- We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.
Before we arrive
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking rules near the property
