How we handle new build mastic in Sauchen

Developers send us the plot schedule and we work through it. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over using the right product for each joint.

Work in a place like Sauchen is planned ahead, journey included. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.

Why act early in Sauchen

Resealing everything on a snagging list in one visit is normally simpler than chasing joints one at a time. It’s one visit, one quote and one set of cure times for the lot. Around Sauchen, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Why us?

  • Rated 4.9 stars on Google
  • Fully insured
  • Arbo and Everbuild products
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels

What we do, step by step

We bring everything the job needs with us, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours in a single home. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.

  1. We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
  2. Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out, with no layer left behind.
  3. We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
  4. We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
  5. Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

How the job changes by surface

Skirting and floors

Gaps under skirting are one of the most common new-build snags. We seal it with a flexible sealant that copes with the movement.

Kitchens

As a new house dries, worktops and walls shift a little, opening gaps behind the upstand. A fresh flexible bead closes them.

Should I try it myself first?

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
  • Use the extractor fan every time you shower
  • Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
  • Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop

Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it as they wear the bead.

Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant.

What new build mastic looks like in Sauchen

Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, and as the frame dries and settles, skirting and sealant joints can open up.

In and around Sauchen, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. Whether the job is in Sauchen itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
