New build mastic in Brasted Chart, done properly

Snagging sealant properly means taking the failed bead out completely. Fresh silicone cannot bond to the old layer, so the joint is cut out, cleaned, dried and resealed. Typical jobs include skirting joints opening in the first winter and sealant work across a run of new homes, across windows & doors, bathrooms & en suites and kitchens.

Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments. In a new development, snags are often reported through the developer or the managing agent, and failed shower seals, open skirting joints and gaps at thresholds are typical.

The process

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours in a single home. For a job in Brasted Chart, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.

  1. We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
  2. We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
  3. Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
  4. We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
  5. Each area is checked and left with its cure time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

What new build mastic looks like in Brasted Chart

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snagging may go through the developer or managing agent.

Leave it or put it right?

The builder is usually the first port of call while the snagging or warranty period runs. If it’s slow, or the same joint keeps failing, a proper reseal from a specialist is the next step. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Putting it right early is much less trouble for homes in Brasted Chart.

What sealant work can’t fix

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath

Surface by surface

Bathrooms and en suites

En suite showers are a common source of leaks into the room below. Resealing properly keeps water where it belongs.

Windows and doors

Draughts around new frames are often a sealant gap. We look at the joints and reseal where needed.

What affects the quote in Brasted Chart

You will get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:

  • The product the joint needs
  • How many areas need sealing
  • The size of the job
  • How easy the joints are to reach

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

What to tell us for a quote

When you call or email, these details help:

  • The type of property
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Whether it has been sealed before

It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Do you need new build mastic in Brasted Chart?

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 and the sealant has to cope with the movement.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Sealant that never bonded to the surface
  • Internal frame sealant that has split
  • Skirting joints opening in the first winter
  • Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover

As a London address, Brasted Chart can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What preparation is included
  • How hidden problems are handled
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Is VAT in the price?

How to choose a mastic man

Should I try it myself first?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
