New build mastic in Scotlandwell, done properly

Across Scotlandwell, we work for both new-home owners and the builders handing those homes over. One shower or a whole phase of plots, the method does not change: cut out, clean, prime where needed and reseal neatly. If you are dealing with skirting joints opening in the first winter and sealant work across a run of new homes, we can put it right, on show homes, windows & doors and bathrooms & en suites alike.

Many newer homes in Scotland are timber-framed and settle as they dry out, which shows as gaps at skirtings and floor joints. In older homes, timber floors move through the year too.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Scotlandwell and across Perth and Kinross.

  • Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
  • Second-fix sealing on new plots
  • Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
  • Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list

If you’ve bought a new home near Lochgelly station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Can I do it myself?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

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, then guaranteed for a year.

Questions from Scotlandwell

Is Scotlandwell in your area for new build mastic?

Yes, Scotlandwell is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.

Do you work for landlords with property near Lochgelly station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.

Do you work through snagging lists?

Yes. Send it with pictures and we will quote for the sealant items. Items that need a plumber, tiler or the builder are flagged.

What do you put in the joint?

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.

Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?

We use white, clear or a colour to suit the finishes. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.

Can I do it myself?

Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Surface by surface

Bathrooms and en suites

Shower trays in new homes often move slightly in the first year. We reseal once the old bead is fully out.

Plot handovers

Plot mastic is carried out to the developer’s schedule. Each joint is cleaned and primed where needed to keep callbacks down.

What we do, step by step

When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours in a single home. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally 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 look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
  2. We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
  3. We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
  4. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
  5. We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Tell us about any water getting in
