New build mastic in Felderland

How we handle new build mastic in Felderland

New homes move as they dry out. Timber shrinks, plaster dries and baths and trays bed down, and sealant applied in a hurry at handover can split. If you have gaps behind new kitchen upstands and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

For a small place like Felderland, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

New build mastic in Felderland: local notes

Felderland is within about 3 miles of the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

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

Felderland questions

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Sandwich station?

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

Will you come out to Felderland?

Yes, Felderland is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Will there be a smell?

Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures.

Do you guarantee your work?

Yes. All our work carries a 12-month guarantee.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.

Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?

Report it to the builder first while you’re covered. Once that is done, or if they will not put it right, we’ll cut it out and reseal it.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.

How long should I leave it?

Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.

Can I do it myself?

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 fails, we can still redo it.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

What happens on the day

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. It usually takes a few hours in a single home. In a small place like Felderland, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  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

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:

  • Do not seal over failed sealant yourself
  • Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
  • Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
  • Follow the cure time we give you

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

Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Resealing before mould gets in keeps the job straightforward.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Felderland

Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

Do you need new build mastic in Felderland?

Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Both fail early.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Sealant that never bonded to the surface
  • Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
  • Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
  • Sealant work across a run of new homes

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • How long the guarantee is
  • What happens if the job turns out different

Our hiring checklist

Why deal with it now?

It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. It’s one visit, one quote and one set of cure times. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Felderland, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.

What you get with us

  • Homes, businesses and hotels
  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
  • 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews

Quotes for new build mastic in Felderland

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • The size of the job
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The number of rooms or windows

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

What to tell us for a quote

You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:

  • The rough size of the job
  • Where the property is
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Photos by email, if that is easy

We don’t publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
