About our new build mastic in Edderton
Snagging sealant properly means taking the failed bead out completely. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. We’re often asked to deal with shower seals failing in the first year or two and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks, across bathrooms & en suites, show homes and kitchens.
For a place like Edderton, 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.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

New homes and floors in Edderton
Edderton is close to the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so any gaps are best picked up early. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
Around Edderton, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Leave it or put it right?
Running a new bead over the builder’s sealant might look tidy for a few weeks, but it won’t bond to the old layer. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. In an older home around Edderton, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
- Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
Keep the bathroom ventilated, especially in the first year. Use the extractor fan or open a window after showers to help keep mould away.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Dealing with it before it goes black keeps the job straightforward.
What we are called out for in Edderton
The wrong product is sometimes used in the wrong place: decorators’ caulk in a wet area, or a stiff sealant where there’s movement. Neither lasts long.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
For new homes near Tain station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

How it works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, and the area is left clean. Outside jobs in Edderton need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out down to clean surfaces.
- We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
- We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
- We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
