New build mastic in Badger Farm, done properly

We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders, and snagging reseals for new-home owners. Both get the same care over preparation since hurried prep is behind a lot of new-build failures. If you’re dealing with new-build shower sealant that has already split and second-fix sealing on new plots, we can help, whatever the surface.

For a new home in or near Badger Farm, it’s worth checking the sealant early. Gaps at skirtings, shower seals pulling away and missing mastic around frames are common snags.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How the visit works

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Parking around Badger Farm is usually easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.

  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 down to clean surfaces.
  3. We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
  4. Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
  5. We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Ask for a quote

It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What we are called out for in Badger Farm

Sealant is often one of the last jobs before handover. Joints are not always cleaned of dust or primed, so the bead never bonds properly.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Gaps between new skirting and floors
  • Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
  • Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
  • New-build shower sealant that has already split

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

Why it’s worth doing now in Badger Farm

It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. You get one visit and one clear quote to plan around. In a smaller place like Badger Farm, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Why book with us

  • Full insurance on every job
  • Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
  • Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
  • 20+ years of sealant experience

Questions from Badger Farm

Is Badger Farm within the area you cover?

Yes, Badger Farm is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Is Badger Farm in your area for new build mastic?

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

Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?

Lots of new homes see sealant crack early, because the house is drying and settling. Rushed application on dusty surfaces makes it worse.

Can tenants book the work?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.

Is there any odour?

Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

Will it make a mess?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Can I send you my snagging list?

Yes. Photos of each sealant item help us quote. If something isn’t sealant, we’ll say so.

How to look after the new joints

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
  • Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
  • Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
  • Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone

Watch the joints as the house settles. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry and can be resealed later.

Do not let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. After that, putting it right may fall to you, so raise it early.

DIY versus a professional finish

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, then guaranteed for a year.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

When it is not the sealant

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:

  • Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
  • Damaged fittings that need replacing
  • Structural cracks in walls or ceilings

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before booking.
