New build mastic for homes and businesses in Fergushill
Building dust is behind a lot of failed new-build sealant. Each joint is cleaned of dust and primed where the product calls for it, so the sealant actually sticks instead of bonding to the dust. If you are dealing with cracks appearing as a new home settles and leaking shower tray seals in a new home, we can help, whatever the surface.
Around smaller Scottish places like Fergushill, new homes tend to be single plots or small developments. Each needs its sealant and floor joints finished as carefully as on a big site.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Fergushill
Joints and finishes in Fergushill homes
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles. The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, so there’s plenty of rain for plot mastic and the sealant in new homes to keep out.
For new homes near Kilwinning station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh. In and around Fergushill, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Outside jobs in Fergushill need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- Each joint is checked for movement before any work starts.
- Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
- The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Keep photos and emails about snagging items
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Most silicones need around a day.
A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Getting it resealed properly, and any movement checked, stops it recurring.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Fergushill
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
For anyone letting property in or around Fergushill, several properties can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Fergushill questions
I let a flat near Kilwinning station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.

Do I have to be there?

Should I wait before resealing?

When is the sealant fully cured?
Cure times vary by product. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?
It depends on the joint: white or clear for most sanitary joints, colours for worktops, floors and frames. We will agree it with you first.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What the job involves on each surface
Plot handovers
Good preparation at handover saves snagging later. We clean out building dust before sealing and prime where the product needs it.
Skirting and floors
As timber and screed dry, skirting and floors shift. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it.
