How we handle new build mastic in Crowborough

For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over. If you are dealing with plot mastic for developers ahead of handover and internal frame sealant that has split, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Towns like Crowborough have older streets and newer estates side by side. In a newer home, sealant and floor joints are usually among the first things to need attention.

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

What sealant work cannot fix

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

  • Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
  • Broken tiles or a split tray

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.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Common problems we fix in Crowborough

The first winter with the heating on dries a new home quickly. Gaps open along skirting, frames and worktops.

The problems people usually mention when they call are:

  • Sealant that never bonded to the surface
  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles
  • Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
  • Messy sealant that spoils new finishes

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
  • Is VAT in the price?
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • Whether they’re fully insured

How to choose a mastic man

DIY versus a professional finish

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

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

What happens on the day

Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. For a job in Crowborough, we need access to where the work is and somewhere nearby to park. For outside work, let us know about side access, gates and any upper-floor joints.

  1. Each joint is checked for movement before any work starts.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
  3. We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
  4. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
  5. We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Advice

For landlords and businesses

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

Quotes for new build mastic in Crowborough

Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • How many areas need sealing

  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

Why it’s worth doing now in Crowborough

The builder is normally the first port of call while the snagging or warranty period runs. If it keeps failing or isn’t dealt with, we can reseal it properly. In a family home in Crowborough, a failed seal around a bath or a frame lets water into places you cannot see, such as under the floor, behind a panel or into a wall. Left alone, that means rot, damp and a bigger repair.

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before we start.
