About our new build mastic in Broughton
We never seal over a failed new-build bead. Fresh silicone can’t bond to the old layer, so the joint is cut out, cleaned, dried and resealed. If you have sealant that never bonded to the surface and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks, we can help.
If you’ve bought a new home in or near Broughton, the first year or two is a good time to check the sealant. Gaps at skirtings, shower seals pulling away and missing mastic around frames are common snags.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

When to call us in Broughton
The first winter with the heating on dries a new home quickly. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
For new homes near Woburn Sands station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

What we do, step by step
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. For a job in Broughton, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The failed sealant is removed completely, with no layer left behind.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Record problems with dated pictures
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Silicone is usually left for about a day to cure enough for use.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you’re in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you, so raise it early.

Why deal with it now?
Sealant done properly at handover means fewer callbacks. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot and most come down to preparation. Around Broughton, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
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.

Honest limits
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant won’t put right:
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Questions from Broughton
Do you cover Broughton for new build mastic?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Broughton is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is Broughton within the area you cover?
Yes. Broughton is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
How long before the joint can be used?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint before we leave.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes, regularly. We can quote for several properties at once.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Opening a window helps.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will explain our choice.
DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What affects the cost of new build mastic
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The size of the job
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether the work is at height
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the property is
- Whether it has been sealed before
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that is easy.
