New Build Mastic in Scourie More
Plot mastic for developers and snagging failed sealant in new homes for homes and businesses in Scourie More and across Highland. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
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 call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
How we handle new build mastic in Scourie More
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 since hurried prep is behind a lot of new-build failures. We are often asked to deal with shower seals failing in the first year or two and gaps opening as the house dries out and settles, across plot handovers, show homes and windows & doors.
For a place like Scourie More, the journey and access are planned in advance. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Record problems with dated photos
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
Do not stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray while the sealant cures. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Small faults turn into leaks if left over time.
What we’re called out for in Scourie More
Once people move in, baths and trays take weight and bed down. If a bath wasn’t filled when it was sealed, the bead is stretched the first time it’s used and the sealant may split.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
Around Scourie More, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

New homes and floors in Scourie More
Scourie More 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. Scourie More 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.
Whether the job is in Scourie More itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere like Scourie More may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Finally, each room is checked and you are given the cure time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear the area around the work

Common questions in Scourie More
Is Scourie More within the area you cover?
Yes. Scourie More is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you cover Scourie More for new build mastic?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Scourie More is part of that. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?
No. We always remove the existing bead, the joint cleaned and primed where needed, before resealing.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Is it worth trying 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.
When is the sealant fully cured?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?
Cracking in the first couple of years is common, because the house is drying and settling. Rushed application on dusty surfaces makes it worse.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels in Scourie More.
