New build mastic for homes and businesses in Croy
We work in new homes and on new-build sites across Croy. Whether it’s one en suite or a run of plots, the method is the same: remove, clean, prime where needed, then a neat new bead. If you are dealing with shower seals failing in the first year or two and cracked sealant around new window and door frames, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and it settles over the first years, which shows as gaps at skirtings and floor joints. In older homes, timber floors move through the year too.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Croy and everywhere else we cover.

Can I do it myself?
If you’re 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 fails, we can still redo it.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?
If you are still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, report it to them first. If it is not sorted, or keeps failing, get in touch with us.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.
What does new build mastic cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.
How long does the job take?
Most jobs take a few hours in a single home, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. The old sealant is cut out fully, then clean and prime the joint, before resealing.
What else we do in Croy
Landlords, agents and businesses in Croy
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Do you need new build mastic in Croy?
Once people move in, baths and trays take weight and bed down. A bath sealed empty drops slightly when filled, straining the joint and can tear.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
In and around Croy, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

When it isn’t the sealant

Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.

Why act early in Croy
A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Dealing with it early keeps the damage away from ceilings, floors and finishes. In a place like Croy, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will talk you through it.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
- Do not seal over failed sealant yourself
Keep pictures of the joints and any snagging correspondence with your builder. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Small faults turn into leaks if left in a busy bathroom.
What new build mastic looks like in Croy
Croy is close to the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Croy 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.
If you’ve bought a new home near Inverness Airport station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.
