Common problems we fix in Beaumont

Baths and trays settle under load once the home is lived in. A bath sealed empty drops slightly when filled, straining the joint and can tear.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • New-build shower sealant that has already split
  • Gaps between new skirting and floors
  • Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
  • Gaps behind new kitchen upstands

Around Beaumont, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Choosing a sealant specialist

New build mastic for homes and businesses in Beaumont

A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber dries and shrinks, and baths and trays settle, so sealant that was laid quickly before handover often cracks. If you’re dealing with internal frame sealant that has split and new-build shower sealant that has already split, we can help, on plot handovers, kitchens and bathrooms & en suites alike.

Older homes in small places like Beaumont often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.

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.

What affects the cost of new build mastic

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Access and height
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • The size of the job

The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What we need to know

You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:

  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • The type of property
  • What’s wrong with the joints now

We do not publish a price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

FAQs for Beaumont

Will you come out to Beaumont?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Do you cover Beaumont for new build mastic?

Yes, Beaumont is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.

Do you take on second-fix sealing for builders?

Yes. We take on second-fix sealant work across new plots. Good preparation keeps snagging to a minimum.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.

Is it messy?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?

Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. After that, or if their repair keeps failing, we can do it with our 12-month guarantee.

When is the best time to reseal in a new build?

It depends on whether water is getting through. Failed seals in wet areas need doing now, but cosmetic gaps can wait for movement to slow.

How to look after the new joints

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
  • Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
  • Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
  • Use the extractor fan every time you shower

Do not stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.

Do not let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. Once it ends, the repair may be down to you, so raise it early.

The process

We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. In a small place like Beaumont, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  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. 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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Mention any tricky access
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

When something else is needed

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
  • Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
  • A tray or bath that isn’t properly supported, until it’s fixed

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Joints and finishes in Beaumont homes

Beaumont is within about 2 miles of the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so any gaps are best picked up early. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

What the job involves on each surface

Show homes

Tired or marked sealant in a show home can be renewed. The old bead comes out and a clean new one goes in.

Plot handovers

Plot mastic is carried out to the developer’s schedule. Joints are prepared properly before sealing so the sealant lasts.

Why act early in Beaumont

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. Around Beaumont, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
