Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
New build mastic in Ibrox
Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. Both get the same care over preparation, because that’s what rushed new-build sealant usually lacks. We are often asked to deal with gaps between new skirting and floors and leaking shower tray seals in a new home, across kitchens, windows & doors and plot handovers.
In older Scottish city flats, floors are often timber over joists, so skirting joints open and close through the year. For a flat in Ibrox, a flexible sealant copes with that movement where filler would crack.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Why act early in Ibrox
It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. You get one visit and one clear quote. Scottish rain finds any gap around a frame or wall joint, and in Ibrox, damp can spread through stone and plaster before anyone sees it.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Why Ibrox customers choose us
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work

Questions from Ibrox
Is there a guarantee on new build mastic in Ibrox?
All our work, in Ibrox and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Dumbreck station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?
A new house dries and settles for a year or two, and sealant is often applied quickly onto dusty surfaces. Both lead to early failure.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.
What does new build mastic cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing and where.
Do you come to Ibrox?
Yes. We’re based in Crawley and work across South East England, London and Scotland, and that includes Ibrox.
Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?
Your builder, if you’re still in their snagging or warranty period. If that does not work out, we are happy to quote with our one-year guarantee.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. We always remove the existing bead, the joint cleaned and primed where needed, before resealing.
New homes and floors in Ibrox
The west of Scotland is wetter than the east, which means plot mastic and the sealant in new homes has to cope with a lot of rain. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.
Around Ibrox, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Different surfaces, different methods
Plot handovers
Good preparation at handover saves snagging later. Dust from the build is removed first and primer used where needed.
Skirting and floors
As timber and screed dry, skirting and floors shift. We use a flexible product rather than caulk in a colour to suit.
Also in Ibrox
Do you need new build mastic in Ibrox?
If plaster or screed was still damp when it was sealed, the bond suffers. On a busy site, joints are not always given time to dry first.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
For new homes near Dumbreck station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
What your quote should include
- What product goes in the joint
- What insurance they hold
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What guarantee comes with the work
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Keep photos and emails about snagging items
Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray. Report any movement in a bath or tray.
Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Early resealing keeps the job small and protects the rest of the house.

- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.

- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
