About our new build mastic in Wallacestone
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover using the right product for each joint. We work on plot handovers, windows & doors and kitchens, and people most often call us about second-fix sealing on new plots and gaps between new skirting and 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.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
- Record problems with dated pictures
Do not stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray in the first few weeks. Report any movement in a bath or tray.
If a shower tray or bath seal splits in the first year, look for movement. Getting it resealed properly, and any movement checked, stops it recurring.
Wallacestone questions
Do you cover Wallacestone for new build mastic?
Yes, Wallacestone is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
Do you work for landlords with property near Polmont station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?
A new house dries and settles for a year or two, and sealant is often rushed onto dusty, unprimed surfaces. Both lead to early failure.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Should I wait before resealing?
If the seal has failed and water is getting in, do it now. Hairline cosmetic gaps can wait until the house has settled.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, always. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it can’t bond to what’s underneath. Taking it all out and starting again is the only way to get a lasting seal. Around Wallacestone, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are unsure, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
Why book with us
