About our new build mastic in Askett

We work in new homes and on new-build sites across Askett. One shower or a whole phase of plots, the method doesn’t change: remove, clean, prime where needed, then a neat new bead. Typical jobs include kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall and second-fix sealing on new plots, across windows & doors, plot handovers and bathrooms & en suites.

For a small place like Askett, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

What sealant work can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
  • Cracking that points to a structural problem
  • Plumbing faults behind the sealant

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Show homes
  • Plot handovers

  • Bathrooms & en suites
  • Kitchens

What happens on the day

The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours in a single home, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. For a village or hamlet like Askett, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
  2. Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out.
  3. We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
  4. We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
  5. We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Surface by surface

Skirting and floors

As timber and screed dry, skirting and floors shift. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it.

Kitchens

Beside the sink, the joint takes water every day. A kitchen sealant goes in there suited to the job.

When to call us in Askett

A new house holds a lot of water from the build, and it dries out over the first couple of years. Drying timber shrinks and pulls joints apart.

The problems people usually mention when they call are:

  • Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
  • Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
  • Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
  • New-build shower sealant that has already split

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

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • The length of the guarantee
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY sealant or a professional job?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

Landlord and commercial work in Askett

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
