New build mastic for homes and businesses in Moulin
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. Common call-outs are for new-build shower sealant that has already split and kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall, across plot handovers, bathrooms & en suites and skirting & floors.
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and it settles over the first years, which shows as gaps at skirtings and floor joints. Older stone-built homes, meanwhile, often have timber floors that move with the seasons.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Moulin and everywhere else we cover.

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Silicone is usually left for about a day.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Dealing with it before it goes black saves a harder job later.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
FAQs for Moulin
I let a flat near Pitlochry station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can you do new build mastic in Moulin?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Moulin is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?
Where water is getting through, do not wait. Hairline cosmetic gaps can wait until the house has settled.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Can I do 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.
Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?
No. Sealing over old sealant looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts. All the old sealant comes out before we start.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Why deal with it now?
DIY kits don’t solve the main problems with new-build sealant: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Cutting out, cleaning and priming are what make the difference. In an older home around Moulin, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

What we do, step by step
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Outside jobs in Moulin need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out, with no layer left behind.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
