New build mastic in Inverness
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover with a sealant suited to each area. We work on plot handovers, show homes and kitchens, and common reasons people get in touch are leaking shower tray seals in a new home and second-fix sealing on new plots.
Around Inverness, shops and business units have floor joints that break down under traffic. Resealing them early stops the edges breaking away.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Inverness as everywhere else we work.

Why it’s worth doing now in Inverness
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but a leaking seal can’t. If you are unsure which you have, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with photos and we will tell you. If you live in a flat in Inverness, failed sealant can send water to the neighbours below, and that is much harder to put right.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Inverness
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- We are fully insured
- We never seal over old sealant

What affects the cost of new build mastic
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The type of sealant required
- The amount of work
- How easy the joints are to reach
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and describe the job and send photos if you have them.
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Signs you need new build mastic in Inverness
A new house holds a lot of water from the build, and it dries out over the first couple of years. As it does, timber shrinks and joints open, and sealant that can’t keep up splits.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
If you’ve bought a new home near Inverness station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

How it works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, including the tidy-up. A visit in Inverness needs three things planned: access, parking and where the work is. Outside work depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- Each joint is checked for movement before any work starts.
- Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
- We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
- New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
- The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.
Getting ready for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

New build mastic in Inverness: local notes
Inverness is close to the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so any gaps are best picked up early. Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.
Around Inverness, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Inverness (Gaelic: Inbhir Nis) is in Highland. Whether you’re in the middle of Inverness or further out, new build mastic is available for homes and businesses alike, from flats and houses to offices and hotels. Inverness is one of 253 towns and villages in Highland we cover for new build mastic.

Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Broken tiles or a split tray
Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
