New-build sealant joints in Lochluichart need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
How we handle new build mastic in Lochluichart
In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water gets into the floor or walls. If you are dealing with kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall and sealant that never bonded to the surface, we can help, on skirting & floors, show homes and bathrooms & en suites alike.
Around smaller Scottish places like Lochluichart, new homes tend to be single plots or small developments. Each needs its sealant and floor joints finished as carefully as on a big site.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

How the visit works
We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. For a place like Lochluichart, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- 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 are given the cure time.
Before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

What we need to know
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- How we’d reach the joints

How the job changes by surface
Kitchens
New-kitchen sealant is often applied in a rush. We remove it and reseal with a kitchen-suitable sealant.
Plot handovers
Good preparation at handover saves snagging later. We clean out building dust before sealing.
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Why deal with it now?
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but a leaking seal can’t. Not sure whether yours can wait? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few pictures and we will tell you. 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.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: 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.
