Why it’s worth doing now in Madderty
A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it won’t bond to the old layer. Taking it all out and starting again is the only way to get a lasting seal. 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.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear quote before we start.
Why book with us
- A 12-month guarantee on all work

New build mastic for homes and businesses in Madderty
Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. In both, preparation makes the difference, because that’s what rushed new-build sealant generally lacks. If you have cracked caulk along new skirting and frame joints opening as the plaster dries, we can help, whatever the surface.
New homes in smaller Scottish places are often single plots, self-builds or small developments. Each needs its sealant and floor joints finished as carefully as on a big site.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
New build mastic in Madderty: local notes
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.

The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Outside jobs in Madderty need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The failed sealant is removed completely down to clean surfaces.
- We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
- 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
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

How the job changes by surface
Plot handovers
Developers can send the plot schedule and specification for a quote. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, frames and floors to the agreed spec.
Bathrooms and en suites
Shower trays in new homes often move slightly in the first year. The joint is stripped back before the new bead goes in.
Madderty questions
Do you cover Madderty for new build mastic?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Madderty is part of that. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Is there a guarantee on new build mastic in Madderty?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.
Should I go to my builder first?
Your builder, if you are still in their snagging or warranty period. After that, or if their repair keeps failing, we can do it and our work is guaranteed for a year.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
When to call us in Madderty
Once people move in, baths and trays take weight and bed down. A bath sealed empty drops slightly when filled, straining the joint and the sealant may split.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
For jobs in and around Madderty, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.
What to look for in a quote
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Is VAT in the price?
- When the joint can take water or movement
When it isn’t the sealant
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.
