DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Bathrooms & en suites
- Plot handovers
- Windows & doors
- Skirting & floors
- Show homes
- Kitchens
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
- Follow the cure time we give you
- Record problems with dated photos
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
Keep an eye on the joints over the first couple of years. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry and can be resealed later.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Resealing before mould gets in keeps the job straightforward.
The process
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours in a single home. Around Golspie, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
- Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
- We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Golspie is within about 1 mile 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. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.
For new homes near Golspie station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh. Around Golspie, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
