About our new build mastic in Bushey

Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a failed shower or bath seal shouldn’t wait. If you are dealing with gaps between new skirting and floors and shower seals failing in the first year or two, we can help.

Small business units and shops in a town like Bushey have floors that take heavy wear. Joints at thresholds and in tiled or concrete floors need resealing before the edges start to break up.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bushey and across Hertfordshire.

Do you cover Bushey for new build mastic?

Yes, Bushey is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.

I let a flat near Bushey station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Can you do plot mastic on a new development?

Yes. We take on second-fix sealant work across new plots. We clean and prime joints properly to keep callbacks down.

Will there be a smell?

That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.

Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?

No. The old sealant is cut out fully, then clean and prime the joint, and a new bead applied.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.

When it is not the sealant

In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

  • Plumbing faults behind the sealant
  • Broken tiles or a split tray
  • Structural cracks in walls or ceilings

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What the job involves on each surface

Windows and doors

The gap between a new frame and its plaster reveal often opens up. We cut out the cracked bead and reseal with a flexible sealant that suits the frame.

Kitchens

As a new house dries, worktops and walls shift a little, which opens gaps along the back. We reseal them with a flexible sealant.

Advice

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Signs you need new build mastic in Bushey

Fresh sealant can be knocked or cut by trades finishing off. A bead disturbed before it has cured may never seal properly, and the problem shows up after you move in.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
  • Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
  • Cracked caulk along new skirting
  • Sealant work across a run of new homes

In and around Bushey, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • What insurance they hold
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
