FAQs for Stoer
Is there a guarantee on new build mastic in Stoer?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is Stoer within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Should I go to my builder first?
While the snagging or warranty period runs, the builder should be your first contact. If it is not sorted, or keeps failing, get in touch with us.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for householders, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels across Highland.
Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?
No. The old sealant is cut out fully, then clean and prime the joint, before resealing.
How much does new build mastic cost in Stoer?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
About our new build mastic in Stoer
In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. When the finish is smeared, patchy or already cracking, it’s worth putting right early, before water reaches anything behind it. We work on skirting & floors, show homes and bathrooms & en suites, and people most often call us about worktop and upstand sealant coming away and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks.
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.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Different surfaces, different methods
Windows and doors
Draughts around new frames are often a sealant gap. We look at the joints and reseal where needed.
Skirting and floors
New homes often develop a gap between skirting and floor. A flexible sealant closes it without cracking like caulk.
Landlord and commercial work in Stoer
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can be quoted together.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Keep photos and emails about snagging items
Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray while the sealant cures. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Resealing before mould gets in keeps the job straightforward.
New build mastic around Stoer
Stoer is within about 1 mile of the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles.
Around Stoer, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Leave it or put it right?
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. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What we do, step by step
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. The job generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Outside jobs in Stoer need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- Each joint is checked for movement before work begins.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
- The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Do you need new build mastic in Stoer?
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:
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
For jobs in and around Stoer, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.
