How it works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours in a single home. Somewhere like Fishcross may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- Each area is checked and left with its cure time.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

How we handle new build mastic in Fishcross
Across Fishcross, we work for both new-home owners and the builders handing those homes over. One shower or a whole phase of plots, the method does not change: cut out, clean, prime where needed and reseal neatly. If you are dealing with internal frame sealant that has split and cracked caulk along new skirting, we can help, on skirting & floors, plot handovers and windows & doors alike.
New homes in smaller Scottish places are often single plots, self-builds or small developments. They need their sealant and floor joints finished just as carefully as on a big site.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Fishcross and across Clackmannanshire.

What we can’t put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- A tray or bath that is not properly supported, until it’s fixed
- Broken tiles or a split tray
Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Windows & doors
- Kitchens
- Show homes
- Plot handovers
- Skirting & floors
- Bathrooms & en suites
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
When to call us in Fishcross
Sealant applied onto damp surfaces does not bond well. Site programmes do not always leave time for joints to dry before the sealant goes on.
People usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
If you’ve bought a new home near Alloa station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

How we quote for new build mastic
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number of rooms or windows
- The product the joint needs
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear price before work begins.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Where the property is
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
What happens if it’s left?
If you are still in the builder’s snagging or warranty period, ask them to put it right first. 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 damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Why book with us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- We never seal over old sealant
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Over 20 years’ experience

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Landlords and letting agents in Fishcross can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.
New homes and floors in Fishcross
Fishcross is within about 3 miles of 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. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
In and around Fishcross, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Questions from Fishcross
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Alloa station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Is Fishcross within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?
For failed seals that let water through, the best time is now. For small cosmetic gaps, waiting until the house has settled can save doing them twice.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Can I send you my snagging list?
Yes. We often work straight from a snagging list. We will go through the sealant items and agree what we will do.
Do you use white or clear sealant?
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.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Can you do plot mastic on a new development?
Yes. We seal plots to the developer’s programme, room by room. Tell us the plots and the joints involved for a clear quote.
