New build mastic for Tullynessle homes and businesses

New build mastic in Tullynessle

For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over with a sealant suited to each area. Typical jobs include new-build shower sealant that has already split and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks, on plot handovers, bathrooms & en suites and skirting & floors.

New homes in smaller Scottish places are often single plots, self-builds or small developments. They need their sealant and floor joints finished just as carefully as on a big site.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

The process

The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on. Expect the work to take a few hours in a single home, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Outdoor work around Tullynessle depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.

  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. Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
  4. Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
  5. We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.

How to prepare

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice

Questions from Tullynessle

Do you cover Tullynessle for new build mastic?

Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Tullynessle is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.

Is there a guarantee on new build mastic in Tullynessle?

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Of course. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

Can landlords and businesses book you?

Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels in Tullynessle.

How long does new build mastic take?

As a guide, most jobs take a few hours in a single home. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we will tell you how long to expect.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.

Why it’s worth doing now in Tullynessle

Resealing everything on a snagging list in one visit is usually simpler than chasing joints one at a time. You get one visit and one clear quote. 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.

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

Why Tullynessle customers choose us

  • Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
  • A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
  • White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
  • Old sealant always removed completely

How the job changes by surface

Windows and doors

Internal joints between frames and plaster often crack as a new house dries. We remove cracked sealant and apply a flexible one.

Plot handovers

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

How we quote for new build mastic

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Access and height
  • The product the joint needs

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

Asking for a quote

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • The rough size of the job
  • Where the property is
  • How we’d reach the joints

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.

New homes and floors in Tullynessle

What we are called out for in Tullynessle

Sealant is often one of the last jobs before handover. Dusty, unprimed joints are common, so the bead never bonds properly.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Skirting joints opening in the first winter
  • Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
  • Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
  • Frame joints opening as the plaster dries

Around Tullynessle, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Before you book anyone

  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • How hidden problems are handled
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not

How to choose a mastic man

When something else is needed

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
  • Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
  • Damaged fittings that need replacing

If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Can I do it myself?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

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.
