About our new build mastic in Bovingdon Green
A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. When the finish is smeared, patchy or already cracking, it’s worth putting right early, before water reaches anything behind it. We work on show homes, kitchens and skirting & floors, and people most often call us about gaps opening as the house dries out and settles and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list.
Around Bovingdon Green, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bovingdon Green as everywhere else we work.

What sealant work can’t fix
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Broken tiles or a split tray
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What the job involves on each surface
Plot handovers
Plot mastic is carried out to the developer’s schedule. Each joint is cleaned and primed where needed so the sealant lasts.
Kitchens
Worktop, upstand and sink joints in new kitchens often get a hurried bead. We take it out and reseal neatly, colour-matched where it shows.
When to call us in Bovingdon Green
Later trades and the final clean can damage fresh sealant. If it’s disturbed before curing, the joint can be left weak.
The problems people generally mention when they call include:
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
In and around Bovingdon Green, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Advice
Why act early in Bovingdon Green
Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. In a small place like Bovingdon Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Rather than a set price list, 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 choose Mr Mastic in Bovingdon Green
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- You choose the colour before work begins
- A choice of colours where the product allows
