About our new build mastic in Moor of Granary
We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders, and snagging reseals for new-home owners. Both get the same care over preparation. We are often asked to deal with sealant work across a run of new homes and worktop and upstand sealant coming away, on bathrooms & en suites, plot handovers and skirting & floors.
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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?
Your builder, if you’re still in their snagging or warranty period. If that does not work out, we are happy to quote and our work is guaranteed for a year.

It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
Around Moor of Granary, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What new build mastic looks like in Moor of Granary
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.
If you’ve bought a new home near Forres station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Follow the cure time we give you
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Most silicones need around a day before water reaches them.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Early resealing keeps the job small and protects the rest of the house.

What the job involves on each surface
Bathrooms and en suites
En suite showers are a common source of leaks into the room below. Resealing properly keeps water where it belongs.
Skirting and floors
As timber and screed dry, skirting and floors shift. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Why deal with it now?
Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Dealing with it early keeps the damage away from ceilings, floors and finishes. In a place like Moor of Granary, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first.
