How we handle new build mastic in Eastbury

Developers send us the plot schedule and we work through it. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover with a sealant suited to each area. We work on windows & doors, kitchens and bathrooms & en suites, and people most often call us about untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list and beads laid onto grit and dust from the build.

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

Our work is backed for twelve months.

What the job involves on each surface

Show homes

Tired or marked sealant in a show home can be renewed. The old bead comes out and a clean new one goes in.

Bathrooms and en suites

New-build bathrooms and en suites are where sealant fails most often. The old sealant comes out and anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in after cleaning and priming.

The process

On the day, we look over the joints with you first. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. The work usually takes a few hours in a single home. Somewhere like Eastbury needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Advice

What sealant work can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
  • Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
  • Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty

If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Quotes for new build mastic in Eastbury

There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • The type of sealant required
  • The number and length of the joints
  • Mould in or behind the old joints

Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

What we need to know

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

We do not publish a price list. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Leave it or put it right?

A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it can’t bond to what’s underneath. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. Around Eastbury, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Looking after it afterwards

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
  • Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
  • Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
  • Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself

Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents, which can damage the surface.

The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Eastbury

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.

Eastbury questions

Is Eastbury in your area for new build mastic?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Eastbury is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Is there a guarantee on new build mastic in Eastbury?

Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Should I try DIY first?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

What information do you need?

Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. Just list everything you need.

Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?

New homes dry out and move in their first couple of years, and sealant is often rushed onto dusty, unprimed surfaces. Both lead to early failure.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

Will there be a smell?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
