New build mastic for Clement Street homes and businesses

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

New build mastic in Clement Street

Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. Both get the same care over preparation, because that’s what rushed new-build sealant normally lacks. We work on skirting & floors, show homes and windows & doors, and the jobs we see most are sealant that never bonded to the surface and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks.

For a small place like Clement Street, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Clement Street as everywhere else we work.

Clement Street: your questions answered

Do you cover Clement Street for new build mastic?

Yes, Clement Street is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.

Do you cover smaller places like Clement Street?

Yes, Clement Street is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Do you take on second-fix sealing for builders?

Yes. Second-fix sealing in bathrooms, kitchens, frames and floors is part of what we do. Good preparation keeps snagging to a minimum.

What should I tell you?

Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?

New homes dry out and move in their first couple of years, and sealant is often rushed onto dusty, unprimed surfaces. Either can make it fail early.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

How long will you be here?

It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a few hours in a single home. We will give you a better idea when we quote.

Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?

For failed seals that let water through, the best time is now. For small cosmetic gaps, waiting until the house has settled can save doing them twice.

How the visit works

On the day, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. In a small place like Clement Street, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
  2. Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out down to clean surfaces.
  3. We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
  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

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any tricky access

Advice

Different surfaces, different methods

Bathrooms and en suites

Shower trays in new homes often move slightly in the first year. The joint is stripped back before the new bead goes in and baths are filled before sealing.

Kitchens

Sink joints are wet all the time. A kitchen sealant goes in there, food-safe where it’s needed.

Why act early in Clement Street

It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. It’s one visit, one quote and one set of cure times for the lot. In a small place like Clement Street, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

  • Over 20 years’ experience

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

When something else is needed

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Damaged fittings that need replacing
  • Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
  • A tray or bath that isn’t properly supported, until it’s fixed

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
