New build mastic in Kilbeg
A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber dries and shrinks, and baths and trays settle, and sealant applied in a hurry at handover can split. We work on bathrooms & en suites, windows & doors and skirting & floors, and common reasons people get in touch are plot mastic for developers ahead of handover and internal frame sealant that has split.
Work in a place like Kilbeg is planned ahead, journey included. Outdoor plot mastic needs dry weather, but indoor floor and skirting joints can be sealed whatever the forecast.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Leave it or put it right?
DIY kits do not solve the main problems with new-build sealant: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Cutting out, cleaning and priming are what make the difference. In a place like Kilbeg, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

When to call us in Kilbeg
Sealant applied onto damp surfaces doesn’t bond well. Site programmes don’t always leave time for joints to dry.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
Around Kilbeg, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Kilbeg questions
Is Kilbeg in your area for new build mastic?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Kilbeg is part of that. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Is new build mastic in Kilbeg guaranteed?
All our work, in Kilbeg and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for householders, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels across Highland.
Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?
That depends on the joint. A leaking shower or bath seal should be redone right away, but cosmetic gaps can wait for movement to slow.
Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?
It depends on the joint: white or clear in most bathrooms, and a colour to suit worktops, frames and floors elsewhere. We will agree it with you first.
Do you work for developers?
Yes. Plot mastic and second-fix sealing for developers is part of our work. Send the schedule and any specification and we will give you a quote.
What information do you need?
Tell us what needs doing and where, with pictures by email if possible. If we need more, we will ask.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right 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 do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
The process
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots from start to finish. Outside jobs in Kilbeg need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- The failed sealant is removed completely down to clean surfaces.
- We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Joints and finishes in Kilbeg homes
Kilbeg is within about 1 mile of the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Kilbeg is in the west of Scotland, which is wetter than the east, which means plot mastic and the sealant in new homes has to cope with a lot of rain.
Whether the job is in Kilbeg itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
