Common problems we fix in Wormit
Sealant is often one of the last jobs before handover. Dusty, unprimed joints are common, and the sealant sits on grit instead of the surface.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
If you’ve bought a new home near Dundee station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.
What your quote should include
- How the colour is chosen
- What the cure time is
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- The length of the guarantee
New build mastic in Wormit, done properly
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. We work on windows & doors, show homes and bathrooms & en suites, and the jobs we see most are worktop and upstand sealant coming away and second-fix sealing on new plots.
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.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
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.

The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. It normally takes a few hours in a single home. For a place like Wormit, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

What affects the quote in Wormit
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Whether the work is at height
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The product the joint needs
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
Helping us quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- The address or postcode of the job
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- A few pictures by email, if you can
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll explain what’s involved and give you a clear price.
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Follow the cure time we give you
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray. Report any movement in a bath or tray.
If a shower tray or bath seal splits in the first year, look for movement. Have it resealed, and the tray or bath checked, before it gets worse.
