Quotes for new build mastic in Whitehills

There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:

  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • How many areas need sealing
  • How much there is to do
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

Helping us quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Photos by email, if that is easy

About our new build mastic in Whitehills

Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the new bead bonds properly rather than sitting on a layer of grit. If you’re dealing with leaking shower tray seals in a new home and frame joints opening as the plaster dries, we can help, whatever the surface.

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

Our work is backed for twelve months.

How it works

You do not need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots for a typical job. Outdoor work around Whitehills 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. First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
  2. Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
  3. Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
  4. A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
  5. Each area is checked and left with its cure time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Let us know about parking restrictions

Advice

Do you need new build mastic in Whitehills?

Sealant applied onto damp surfaces does not bond well. On a busy site, joints aren’t always given time to dry first.

People normally contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
  • Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
  • Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
  • Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles

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

Whitehills: your questions answered

I let a flat near East Kilbride station. Can you help?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Is Whitehills within the area you cover?

Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?

No. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to the old layer, so sealing over the top fails quickly. The old sealant always comes out first.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, always. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months, wherever you are.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

Is it messy?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.

What do you put in the joint?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.

Why act early in Whitehills

It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. You get one visit and one clear quote for the lot. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.

Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Joints and finishes in Whitehills homes

Many new homes in Scotland are timber-framed, so skirting and sealant joints can open up as the building settles. Whitehills is in the west of Scotland, which is wetter than the east, which means plot mastic and the sealant in new homes has to cope with a lot of rain.

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

What the job involves on each surface

Windows and doors

The gap between a new frame and its plaster reveal often opens up. We cut out the cracked bead and reseal with a flexible sealant in a matching colour.

Kitchens

Worktop, upstand and sink joints in new kitchens often get a hurried bead. We remove it and reseal with a kitchen-suitable sealant.
