How we handle new build mastic in Aston Tirrold

For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover with a sealant suited to each area. We’re often asked to deal with sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging, on plot handovers, show homes and skirting & floors.

In a village or hamlet like Aston Tirrold, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.

You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Aston Tirrold as everywhere else we work.

Keeping the joints in good condition

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
  • Follow the cure time we give you
  • Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
  • Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop

Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It helps if anything else comes up during the warranty period.

A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Early resealing keeps the job small and protects the rest of the house.

What the job involves on each surface

Show homes

We can refresh show-home sealant that has discoloured or been knocked. The old bead comes out and a clean new one goes in.

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 with baths filled first.

Leave it or put it right?

A tube of sealant from the DIY shop will not fix the cause: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. In a small place like Aston Tirrold, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

Questions from Aston Tirrold

Will you come out to Aston Tirrold?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Is Aston Tirrold in your area for new build mastic?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Aston Tirrold is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.

How do I get a quote for new build mastic in Aston Tirrold?

Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

Should I wait before resealing?

That depends on the joint. Failed seals in wet areas need doing now, but cosmetic gaps can wait for movement to slow.

Is it worth trying it myself?

It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.

Which products do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.

How long will you be here?

Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

What we do, step by step

Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours in a single home. Somewhere like Aston Tirrold needs a little journey planning: 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 look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
  3. We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
  4. New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
  5. We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.

How to prepare

  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

What we cannot put right

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before work begins. It won’t solve:

  • Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
  • Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
  • Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with

If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Can I do it myself?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
