New build mastic for homes and businesses in Fauldhouse
Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a seal that is letting water through needs doing now. Typical jobs include skirting joints opening in the first winter and plot mastic for developers ahead of handover, across bathrooms & en suites, kitchens and skirting & floors.
For a place like Fauldhouse, the journey and access are planned in advance. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fauldhouse
For anyone letting property in or around Fauldhouse, several properties can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and pictures by email help.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Leave it or put it right?
The builder is generally the first port of call while the snagging or warranty period runs. If it’s slow, or the same joint keeps failing, a proper reseal from a specialist is the next step. In a place like Fauldhouse, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
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, so you know where you stand.
What you get with us
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- More than 20 years in sealant work
- You choose the colour before work begins
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
If you’re not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Signs you need new build mastic in Fauldhouse
The first winter with the heating on dries a new home quickly. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly and cracks appear in the sealant.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
If you’ve bought a new home near Fauldhouse station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.
