About our new build mastic in Fraserburgh

A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber shrinks, plaster dries and baths and trays bed down, so sealant that was laid quickly before handover often cracks. We work on show homes, skirting & floors and bathrooms & en suites, and people most often call us about gaps between new skirting and floors and worktop and upstand sealant coming away.

In a town like Fraserburgh, older streets sit alongside newer estates. Newer homes need snagging; older ones need their joints renewing.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Aftercare tips

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:

  • Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
  • Do not seal over failed sealant yourself
  • Open a window or run the fan after bathing
  • Keep photos and emails about snagging items

Do not stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray while the sealant cures. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.

Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Dealing with it before it goes black saves a harder job later.

New homes and floors in Fraserburgh

Fraserburgh is close to the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.

Whether the job is in Fraserburgh itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

FAQs for Fraserburgh

What guarantee comes with new build mastic in Fraserburgh?

All our work, in Fraserburgh and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Is Fraserburgh in your area for new build mastic?

Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Fraserburgh is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.

Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?

No. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to the old layer, so sealing over the top fails quickly. The old sealant always comes out first.

Should I try DIY first?

You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.

Can you do plot mastic on a new development?

Yes. We seal plots to the developer’s programme ready for handover. Get in touch with the number of plots and the scope for a clear quote.

What information do you need?

Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.

Will there be a smell?

Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Common problems we fix in Fraserburgh

Fresh sealant can be knocked or cut by trades finishing off. If it’s disturbed before curing, the joint can be left weak.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
  • Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
  • Skirting joints opening in the first winter
  • Sealant work across a run of new homes

Around Fraserburgh, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

10 questions to ask before you book

What the job involves on each surface

Plot handovers

We work through plots to your schedule, sealing each room ready for handover. Joints are prepared properly before sealing.

Kitchens

Beside the sink, the joint takes water every day. We use a sealant suited to kitchens, food-safe where it’s needed.

What we do, step by step

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours in a single home from start to finish. Parking around Fraserburgh is rarely difficult, though older streets in the centre can be tight. For flats, mention the shared stair or door entry system.

  1. We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
  2. We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
  3. Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
  4. New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
  5. We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.

Before we arrive

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Why deal with it now?

A tube of sealant from the DIY shop won’t fix the cause: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. If you live in a flat in Fraserburgh, failed sealant can send water to the neighbours below, and that is much harder to put right.

The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
