New build mastic in Conyer

New build mastic for homes and businesses in Conyer

A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water gets into the floor or walls. We work on plot handovers, bathrooms & en suites and skirting & floors, and common reasons people get in touch are shower seals failing in the first year or two and gaps between new skirting and floors.

Around Conyer, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.

You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

New build mastic around Conyer

Conyer is within about 1 mile of the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so any gaps are best picked up early. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

If you’ve bought a new home near Teynham station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Your questions about new build mastic in Conyer

Will you come out to Conyer?

Yes. Conyer is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

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

Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.

Is it worth trying it myself?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?

A new house dries and settles for a year or two, and sealant is often applied quickly onto dusty surfaces. Either can make it fail early.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.

Do the sealants smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.

How long should I leave it?

Cure times vary by product. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.

How to look after the new joints

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
  • Follow the cure time we give you
  • Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
  • Put sealant faults on your snagging list early

Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Most silicones need around a day.

A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant and the new finishes intact.

Different surfaces, different methods

Windows and doors

External mastic around new windows and doors is sometimes rushed or missed. We reseal it with a weatherproof, flexible sealant.

Show homes

Bathrooms, kitchens and frames in show homes are sealed or resealed to a neat finish ready for viewings. Tell us when the home is open so we can plan around it.

What happens on the day

At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself usually takes a few hours in a single home, depending on how much there is to do. Somewhere as small as Conyer, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
  2. Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out 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. Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Move anything stored near the joints

DIY versus a professional finish

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll give you a quote.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

What affects the cost of new build mastic

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • Access and height
  • The type of sealant required

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What to tell us for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • If someone has resealed it before

There’s no standard price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Common problems we fix in Conyer

Fresh sealant can be knocked or cut by trades finishing off. If it’s disturbed before curing, the joint can be left weak, and the problem shows up after you move in.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
  • Internal frame sealant that has split
  • Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
  • Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks

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

Questions to ask before you book
