New Build Mastic in Forgandenny
Professional new build mastic in and around Forgandenny, with every bit of old sealant taken out first and a 12-month guarantee.
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
Can I do it myself?
If you are 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.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
New build mastic in Forgandenny
If your new home has a leaking shower seal, open skirting joints or untidy sealant, we can help. If you’re still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, tell them first and if that stalls, we can do it. If you have new-build shower sealant that has already split and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks, we can help, whatever the surface.
For a place like Forgandenny, the journey and access are planned in advance. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Do not seal over failed sealant yourself
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Most silicones need around a day to cure enough for use.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you’re in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you, so raise it early.
What we can’t put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Broken tiles or a split tray
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think before booking.

FAQs for Forgandenny
Do you cover Forgandenny for new build mastic?
Yes, Forgandenny is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
Do you work for landlords with property near Perth station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
What colour sealant will you use?
Most bathroom joints are white or clear, but sealant comes in other colours too. We choose one to suit the room.
Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it soon lifts and traps water. We cut the old bead out completely.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. Every job comes with a one-year guarantee.
When is the best time to reseal in a new build?
For failed seals that let water through, the best time is now. Cosmetic gaps can wait until the first year or two of movement has passed.
Common problems we fix in Forgandenny
Once people move in, baths and trays take weight and bed down. If a bath wasn’t filled when it was sealed, the bead is stretched the first time it’s used and can tear.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
Around Forgandenny, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What the job involves on each surface
Skirting and floors
New homes often develop a gap between skirting and floor. We seal it with a flexible sealant that copes with the movement.
Windows and doors
A draught at a new window can be a missed or failed joint. We look at the joints and reseal where needed.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
