What the job involves on each surface

Draughts around new frames are often a sealant gap. We check and reseal the frame edges.
New build mastic in Crimond
A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber dries and shrinks, and baths and trays settle, and sealant applied in a hurry at handover can split. We work on bathrooms & en suites, plot handovers and skirting & floors, and the jobs we see most are sealant that never bonded to the surface and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging.
Work in a place like Crimond is planned ahead, journey included. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

When to call us in Crimond
New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, which takes a year or two to dry out. As it does, timber shrinks and joints open and the sealant has to cope with the movement.
People normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
In and around Crimond, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

New build mastic around Crimond
Crimond is within about 3 miles of the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.
For jobs in and around Crimond, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
- Follow the cure time we give you
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it as they wear the bead.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant and protects the rest of the house.
How it works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work usually takes a few hours in a single home. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Clear the area around the work

Why it’s worth doing now in Crimond
Small cosmetic gaps can wait for the house to settle, but water getting through cannot. Not sure whether yours can wait? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer. 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.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Why book with us
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- Old sealant always removed completely
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Colour agreed with you before any work starts

Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
