About our new build mastic in Buckskin
Developers send us the plot schedule and we work through it. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover with a sealant suited to each area. We work on bathrooms & en suites, skirting & floors and show homes, and common reasons people get in touch are internal frame sealant that has split and shower seals failing in the first year or two.
If you’ve bought a new home in or near Buckskin, the first year or two is a good time to check the sealant. Common snags include open skirting joints, lifting shower seals and gaps around frames.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Buckskin and across Hampshire.

When something else is needed
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
- Damaged fittings that need replacing
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we are called out for in Buckskin
Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Both fail early.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
For new homes near Basingstoke station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

Surface by 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.
Skirting and floors
Floors and skirting move as the house dries and the heating runs. We use a flexible product rather than caulk painted or coloured to suit.
What affects the quote in Buckskin
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Access and height
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- The rough size of the job
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Where the property is
- Photos by email, if that is easy
For a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the location and a short description of the problem. We’ll give you a clear price before any work starts.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords and letting agents in Buckskin can book us as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Buckskin: your questions answered
Is Buckskin in your area for new build mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Buckskin is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Buckskin?
Yes, Buckskin is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Will it make a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Buckskin and the rest of Hampshire.
How long should I leave it?
It depends on the product. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.

How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Silicone is generally left for about a day.
If a shower tray or bath seal splits in the first year, look for movement. Getting it resealed properly, and any movement checked, stops it recurring.
