Methlick: your questions answered
Is there a guarantee on new build mastic in Methlick?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you cover smaller places like Methlick?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
What should I tell you?
Let us know what needs doing and where. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Should I go to my builder first?
If you’re still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, report it to them first. If they’re slow or the fix doesn’t last, we can help.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
What the job involves on each surface
Show homes
In a show home, the sealant is on display. Every bead is neat and coloured to suit the room.
Skirting and floors
Floors and skirting move as the house dries and the heating runs. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it painted or coloured to suit.

The process
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots for a typical job. For a place like Methlick, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The failed sealant is removed completely, with no layer left behind.
- 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
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Why act early in Methlick
DIY kits don’t solve the main problems with new-build sealant: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. In a place like Methlick, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

How we quote for new build mastic
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- Any mould that needs treating
- When we can work, for business premises
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether the work is at height
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- The address or postcode of the job
- A few photos by email, if you can
- The rough size of the job
- How we’d reach the joints
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will come back to you with a quote.
Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Broken tiles or a split tray
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
If you are not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
