About our new build mastic in Salsburgh
Snagging sealant properly means taking the failed bead out completely. Fresh silicone can’t bond to the old layer, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. Typical jobs include untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list and second-fix sealing on new plots, on bathrooms & en suites, skirting & floors and show homes.
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.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How the job changes by surface
Windows and doors
A draught at a new window can be a missed or failed joint. We check and reseal the frame edges.
Kitchens
Sink joints are wet all the time. We use a sealant suited to kitchens, food-safe where it’s needed.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Show homes
- Skirting & floors
- Bathrooms & en suites
- Windows & doors
- Kitchens
- Plot handovers
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it as they wear the bead.
Don’t let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. After that, putting it right may fall to you so report it promptly.

Why it’s worth doing now in Salsburgh
It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. It’s one visit, one quote and one set of cure times to plan around. Around Salsburgh, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we’re done.
My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?
Start with the builder if you are in the snagging or warranty period. If it is not resolved, we can reseal it properly.
Should I wait before resealing?
For failed seals that let water through, the best time is now. Cosmetic gaps can wait until the first year or two of movement has passed.

Do I need to be at home?
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.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. All our work carries our 12-month guarantee.
