About our new build mastic in Crieff
We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders, and snagging reseals for new-home owners. In both, preparation makes the difference. We work on kitchens, windows & doors and skirting & floors, and people most often call us about beads laid onto grit and dust from the build and cracked sealant around new window and door frames.
For a place like Crieff, the journey and access are planned in advance. Outdoor plot mastic needs dry weather, but indoor floor and skirting joints can be sealed whatever the forecast.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Perth and Kinross.

The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating. Expect the work to take a few hours in a single home, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. For a place like Crieff, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.
How to prepare
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
What we are called out for in Crieff
If plaster or screed was still damp when it was sealed, the bond suffers. On a busy site, joints aren’t always given time to dry before the sealant goes on.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
Whether the job is in Crieff itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

What affects the cost of new build mastic
You will get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:
- The amount of work
- The type of sealant required
- The number of rooms or windows
- Working hours on commercial sites
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The address or postcode of the job
- The rough size of the job
- Whether it’s a home or a business

What happens if it’s left?
If you are still in the builder’s snagging or warranty period, ask them to put it right first. If it’s slow, or the same joint keeps failing, a proper reseal from a specialist is the next step. Around Crieff, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

En suite showers are a common source of leaks into the room below. Resealing properly keeps water where it belongs.

What else we do in Crieff
DIY versus a professional finish
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.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Your questions about new build mastic in Crieff
Is new build mastic in Crieff guaranteed?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you cover smaller places like Crieff?
Yes. Crieff is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
Cracking in the first couple of years is common. Rushed application on dusty surfaces makes it worse.
Can I do 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.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
What information do you need?
