About our new build mastic in Dummer

We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders, and snagging reseals for new-home owners. In both, preparation makes the difference, because that is what rushed new-build sealant normally lacks. We work on windows & doors, skirting & floors and bathrooms & en suites, and the jobs we see most are kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall and sealant work across a run of new homes.

Around Dummer, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Leave it or put it right?

A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. Older cottages and farmhouses around Dummer can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?

Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. If that does not work out, we’re happy to quote and our work is guaranteed for a year.

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

It’s common, and there are usually two reasons: movement as the house dries and settles, and sealant laid onto dust without primer. A proper reseal deals with both.

Are you insured?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured.

Yes. As well as householders, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels across Hampshire.

The process

We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours in a single home. Somewhere like Dummer needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
  3. Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
  4. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
  5. We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

For landlords and businesses

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll give you a quote.

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 just mention it when you contact us.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

What sealant work cannot fix

Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. It will not solve:

  • Broken tiles or a split tray
  • Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
  • Plumbing faults behind the sealant

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

What we seal

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

What affects the cost of new build mastic

For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:

  • How many areas need sealing
  • The size of the job
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What we need to know

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

  • Where the property is
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • A few photos by email, if you can

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.

Do you need new build mastic in Dummer?

Sealant is often one of the last jobs before handover. Dusty, unprimed joints are common, and the sealant sits on grit instead of the surface.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
  • Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
  • Sealant work across a run of new homes
  • Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks

For new homes near Micheldever station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
