About our new build mastic in Crosshouse
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over with a sealant suited to each area. If you have untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list and frame joints opening as the plaster dries, we can help, whatever the surface.
Around smaller Scottish places like Crosshouse, new homes tend to be single plots or small developments. They need their sealant and floor joints finished just as carefully as on a big site.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Should I try it myself first?
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.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What the job involves on each surface
Skirting and floors
Where the floor meets a bath panel or kitchen plinth, the joint keeps mop water out. We seal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
Plot handovers
Taking time over preparation reduces return visits. We clean out building dust before sealing.
What affects the cost of new build mastic
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number and length of the joints
- Working hours on commercial sites
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
Helping us quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- Roughly how big the job is
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- The address or postcode of the job
- The type of property
We quote each job on its own. Simply email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and describe the job, and pictures are welcome.

How much does new build mastic cost in Crosshouse?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing and where.
Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
Lots of new homes see sealant crack early. Poor preparation at handover adds to it.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
Should I go to my builder first?
Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. After that, or if their repair keeps failing, we can do it.
Can you work from my snagging list?
Yes. Send it with pictures and we’ll quote for the sealant items. Items that need a plumber, tiler or the builder are flagged.

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. It’s one visit, one quote and one set of cure times for the lot. In a place like Crosshouse, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
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
- Tidy, careful work
- You choose the colour before work begins
- We are fully insured
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
