New build mastic in Ashurst

New build mastic in Ashurst, done properly

We never seal over a failed new-build bead. Fresh silicone cannot bond to the old layer, so the joint is cut out, cleaned, dried and resealed. We work on skirting & floors, plot handovers and bathrooms & en suites, and people most often call us about cracked caulk along new skirting and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list.

Somewhere as small as Ashurst, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Why act early in Ashurst

A tube of sealant from the DIY shop won’t fix the cause: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. Older cottages and farmhouses around Ashurst can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

  • Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
  • Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
  • Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces

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

Our hiring checklist

What the job involves on each surface

Bathrooms and en suites

Shower trays in new homes often move slightly in the first year. We reseal once the old bead is fully out and baths are filled before sealing.

Kitchens

As a new house dries, worktops and walls shift a little, which opens gaps along the back. We reseal them with a flexible sealant.

DIY versus a professional finish

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

How the visit works

The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. For a village or hamlet like Ashurst, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
  2. We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
  3. Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
  4. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
  5. The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
