How we handle new build mastic in Egypt
Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. For small cosmetic gaps, that is reasonable, but a failed shower or bath seal shouldn’t wait. We work on plot handovers, skirting & floors and bathrooms & en suites, and common reasons people get in touch are worktop and upstand sealant coming away and cracks appearing as a new home settles.
Around Egypt, 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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

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

For landlords and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep photos and emails about snagging items
- Follow the cure time we give you
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Most silicones need around a day.
Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Early resealing keeps the job small.
What happens on the day
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours in a single home for a typical job. Somewhere like Egypt needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
- We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Do you need new build mastic in Egypt?
When the heating goes on in the first winter, the house dries fast. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly.
Look out for these signs:
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Internal frame sealant that has split
For new homes near Burnham station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

Egypt: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Burnham station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Is Egypt in your area for new build mastic?
Yes, Egypt is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
How long before the joint can be used?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will tell you how long to leave the joint before we leave.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.
How much does new build mastic cost in Egypt?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we will tell you how long to expect.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
