How we handle new build mastic in Glengolly
A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. When the finish is smeared, patchy or already cracking, it’s worth putting right early, before water gets into the floor or walls. If you have gaps opening as the house dries out and settles and skirting joints opening in the first winter, we can put it right.
Around smaller Scottish places like Glengolly, 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.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

What affects the quote in Glengolly
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- The size of the job
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Working hours on commercial sites
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
To get a quote, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the location and a short description of the problem. We will send you a clear quote before any work starts.

Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Silicone is generally left for about a day before water reaches them.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant and protects the rest of the house.

Surface by surface
Show homes
Show homes need sealant that looks right from day one. Every bead is neat and coloured to suit the room.
Skirting and floors
Floors and skirting move as the house dries and the heating runs. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it.
Honest limits
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
- Damaged fittings that need replacing
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
If you are not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

If you’ve bought a new home near Thurso station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two. In and around Glengolly, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
