About our new build mastic in Chipping Norton

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. If you have internal frame sealant that has split and leaking shower tray seals in a new home, we can help.

In smaller places like Chipping Norton, new homes tend to come as small developments or single plots. The sealant around baths, showers, frames and skirtings needs to be right from the start.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

What sealant work can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
  • Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
  • Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with

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

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Should I try it myself first?

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

What happens on the day

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. In a smaller place like Chipping Norton, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.

  1. We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
  2. The failed sealant is removed completely down to clean surfaces.
  3. Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
  4. Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
  5. We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice

Do you need new build mastic in Chipping Norton?

New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, 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.

People generally contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Shower seals failing in the first year or two
  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles
  • Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
  • Worktop and upstand sealant coming away

Around Chipping Norton, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Before booking anyone

  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • What the cure time is
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint

Do you use white or clear sealant?

We use white, clear or a colour to suit the finishes. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.

Should I go to my builder first?

Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. After that, or if their repair keeps failing, we can do it and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Do you work through snagging lists?

Yes. Photos of each sealant item help us quote. If something is not sealant, we’ll say so.

Can tenants book the work?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.

Will there be a smell?

Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

Plot mastic is carried out to the developer’s schedule. Joints are prepared properly before sealing.
