Why act early in Kippen
Small cosmetic gaps can wait for the house to settle, but a leaking seal can’t. Not sure whether yours can wait? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few pictures. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.

What happens on the day
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours in a single home, depending on the size of the job. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Surface by surface
Kitchens
As a new house dries, worktops and walls shift a little, which opens gaps along the back. We reseal them with a flexible sealant.
Plot handovers
We work through plots to your schedule, sealing each room ready for handover. Each joint is cleaned and primed where needed so the sealant lasts.
New build mastic in Kippen: local notes

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Record problems with dated photos
Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray while the sealant cures. Report any movement in a bath or tray.
Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant.
