How we quote for new build mastic
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- How many areas need sealing
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The size of the job

Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
There’s no standard price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
How we handle new build mastic in Woodhall
New homes move as they dry out. Timber shrinks, plaster dries and baths and trays bed down, and sealant applied in a hurry at handover can split. Common call-outs are for cracked sealant around new window and door frames and gaps behind new kitchen upstands, on skirting & floors, windows & doors and plot handovers.
Timber frame is common in newer Scottish homes, and it settles over the first years, so skirting and floor joints can open up. Older stone-built homes, meanwhile, often have timber floors that move with the seasons.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

What happens if it’s left?
A tube of sealant from the DIY shop will not fix the cause: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll talk you through it.

Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
