New Build Mastic in Lunanhead

- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
New build mastic for homes and businesses in Lunanhead
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the new bead bonds properly instead of bonding to the dust. If you have gaps between new skirting and floors and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list, we can put it right.
New homes in smaller Scottish places are often single plots, self-builds or small developments. They need their sealant and floor joints finished just as carefully as on a big site.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

What affects the cost of new build mastic
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- How much there is to do
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Access and height
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- The type of property
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- A few photos by email, if you can
- The problem you’ve noticed
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details.
Why deal with it now?
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but a leaking seal cannot. If you’re unsure which you have, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with photos and we will tell you. 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.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchens
Beside the sink, the joint takes water every day. We use a sealant suited to kitchens suited to the job.
Bathrooms and en suites
New-build bathrooms and en suites are where sealant fails most often. We cut out the failed bead, clean and prime, and reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.

How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple:
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Most silicones need around a day to cure enough for use.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Resealing before mould gets in saves a harder job later.
What sealant work cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
- A tray or bath that is not properly supported, until it’s fixed
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
If you’re not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.
