How we handle new build mastic in Fairlie
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, skirting & floors and windows & doors, and common reasons people get in touch are smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging and kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall.
Around smaller Scottish places like Fairlie, 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.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

What happens if it’s left?
The builder is normally the first port of call while the snagging or warranty period runs. If it keeps failing or is not dealt with, we can reseal it properly. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first.
Why us?
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- Full insurance on every job
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator

When to call us in Fairlie
Baths and trays settle under load once the home is lived in. If a bath wasn’t filled when it was sealed, the bead is stretched the first time it’s used and the sealant may split.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
For new homes near Fairlie station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

New build mastic around Fairlie
Fairlie is close to the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so any gaps are best picked up early. The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, which means plot mastic and the sealant in new homes has to cope with a lot of rain.
Around Fairlie, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Silicone is usually left for about a day.
A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Have it resealed, and the tray or bath checked, before it gets worse.
