How we handle new build mastic in Liurbost
A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water reaches anything behind it. We work on windows & doors, skirting & floors and bathrooms & en suites, and the jobs we see most are sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces and skirting joints opening in the first winter.
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and it settles over the first years, which shows as gaps at skirtings and floor joints. In older homes, timber floors move through the year too.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

New build mastic in Liurbost: local notes
Liurbost is close to the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.
In and around Liurbost, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. For jobs in and around Liurbost, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.
Liurbost is in Na h-Eileanan Siar. Whether you are in the middle of Liurbost or further out, we cover new build mastic for every kind of property. Liurbost is one of 87 towns and villages in Na h-Eileanan Siar where we work.
Our applicators cover all of HS2 for new build mastic. New build mastic is available to properties on Macdonald Gardens, Liurbost and Kennedy View. Close by, we work in North Lochs (1 mile east), Crosbost (1 mile east), Lacasaidh (3 miles south-west), Marybank (6 miles north) and Stornoway (6 miles north-east). For island and remote addresses, the job takes a little more planning, so mention it when you ask for a quote.

Nearby you’ll also find Ravenspoint Centre Museum (3.9 miles south). The countryside around Liurbost includes Nisreaval and Loch na Craoibhe.
For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
Ventilation matters in a new home, which is still drying out. Use the extractor fan or open a window after showers so moisture does not sit on the sealant.
Do not let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. Once it ends, the repair may be down to you.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
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.
Surface by surface
Plot handovers
Developers can send the plot schedule and specification. Sealant work across the plot is covered to the agreed spec.
Windows and doors
On new builds, external frame sealant can be patchy. It’s resealed with an exterior sealant suited to the frame and wall.

Why act early in Liurbost
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. For a place like Liurbost, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
- We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
