New build mastic in Ferniegair
Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. For small cosmetic gaps, that’s reasonable, but a seal that’s letting water through needs doing now. If you are dealing with cracked sealant around new window and door frames and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging, we can help, on bathrooms & en suites, plot handovers and show homes alike.
Around smaller Scottish places like Ferniegair, 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.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

How the job changes by surface
Skirting and floors
Where the floor meets a bath panel or kitchen plinth, the joint keeps mop water out. We seal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
Kitchens
Sink joints are wet all the time. We use a sealant suited to kitchens, food-safe where it’s needed.
The process
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours in a single home. For a place like Ferniegair, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice
Why deal with it now?
Running a new bead over the builder’s sealant might look tidy for a few weeks, but it cannot bond to what’s underneath. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. 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.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.

Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

What else we do in Ferniegair
Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Common problems we fix in Ferniegair
The first winter with the heating on dries a new home quickly. Gaps open along skirting, frames and worktops.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
If you’ve bought a new home near Chatelherault station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

New homes and floors in Ferniegair
Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up. 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.
