New build mastic in Plocrapool

Failed shower seals, gaps along the skirting and messy beads are common items on a new-home snagging list. If you are still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, tell them first, and if it is not put right, get in touch with us. If you are dealing with cracks appearing as a new home settles and frame joints opening as the plaster dries, we can help, on skirting & floors, kitchens and plot handovers alike.

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.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can go on one quote.

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

How we quote for new build mastic

Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:

  • The number and length of the joints
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • The type of sealant required

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.

Asking for a quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • The rough size of the job

FAQs for Plocrapool

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

Is Plocrapool in your area for new build mastic?

Can you do plot mastic on a new development?

How long will you be here?

A typical job takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

Can I send you my snagging list?

Yes. Send us the sealant items on the list, with photos if you can and we’ll give you a quote. We’ll tell you if anything on it isn’t a sealant job.

What sealant do you use?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.

What should I tell you?

Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Where do you work from?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Plocrapool and the rest of Na h-Eileanan Siar, along with the rest of our area.

How to look after the new joints

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Follow the cure time we give you
  • Wipe joints with warm soapy water
  • Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
  • Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop

Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray while the sealant cures. Report any movement in a bath or tray.

Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Dealing with it before it goes black saves a harder job later.

Can I do it myself?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

What happens if it’s left?

Running a new bead over the builder’s sealant might look tidy for a few weeks, 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. In an older home around Plocrapool, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

New build mastic in Plocrapool: local notes

Plocrapool is close to the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Plocrapool is in the west of Scotland, which is wetter than the east, so there’s plenty of rain for plot mastic and the sealant in new homes to keep out.

Around Plocrapool, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it. For jobs in and around Plocrapool, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

The process

There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots, including the tidy-up. Outside jobs in Plocrapool 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.

  1. Each joint is checked for movement before any work starts.
  2. We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
  3. Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
  4. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
  5. We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
