New build mastic for homes and businesses in Mill of Mains
New homes move as they dry out. Timber dries and shrinks, and baths and trays settle, so sealant that was laid quickly before handover often cracks. If you are dealing with sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces and cracks appearing as a new home settles, we can help, whatever the surface.

What happens if it’s left?
Small cosmetic gaps can wait for the house to settle, but water getting through can’t. Not sure whether yours can wait? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few photos and we’ll tell you. In a tenement flat in Mill of Mains, a failed seal is rarely just your problem: a leak can come through the ceiling below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-rated joints matter to every flat.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Related advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
