About our new build mastic in Brockley

Building dust is behind a lot of failed new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the new bead bonds properly rather than sitting on a layer of grit. We’re often asked to deal with cracks appearing as a new home settles and kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall, on plot handovers, bathrooms & en suites and windows & doors.

From brand-new flats to converted terraces with new flooring, London has every kind of floor. Every joint between floor, skirting and threshold has to cope with some movement.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Signs you need new build mastic in Brockley

The first winter with the heating on dries a new home quickly. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly and cracked sealant shows up.

The problems people generally mention when they call are:

  • Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
  • Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
  • Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
  • Skirting joints opening in the first winter

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

Before booking anyone

  • What the cure time is
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • Are they insured?
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first

Our hiring checklist

What sealant work cannot fix

Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:

  • Damaged fittings that need replacing
  • Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
  • Cracking that points to a structural problem

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

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Skirting & floors
  • Bathrooms & en suites
  • Kitchens
  • Windows & doors
  • Show homes
  • Plot handovers

What happens on the day

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The visit itself usually takes a few hours in a single home, depending on how much there is to do. For a job in Brockley, parking and access are the things to plan: let us know about parking, the floor we’ll be working on and any lift or shared entrance.

  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. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
  5. We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Mention any tricky access

Quotes for new build mastic in Brockley

We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:

  • The size of the job
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The product the joint needs
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

How to look after the new joints

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Use the extractor fan every time you shower
  • Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
  • Record problems with dated pictures
  • Don’t wait for the house to settle if water is getting through

Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it as they wear the bead.

Early snagging is easier snagging. Small faults turn into leaks if left over time.

Why deal with it now?

For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Every return visit for a failed seal takes time. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Dealing with it early is far simpler for homes in Brockley.

What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

What colour sealant will you use?

How long will you be here?

That depends on the amount of work, but most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. We will tell you when we quote.

Do you work through snagging lists?

Yes. Send the list and a few photos of the sealant items. We will tell you if anything on it is not a sealant job.

Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?

A new house dries and settles for a year or two, and sealant is often applied quickly onto dusty surfaces. Either can make it fail early.

What new build mastic looks like in Brockley

Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much 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.
