About our new build mastic in Forest Corner

Failed shower seals, gaps along the skirting and messy beads are common items on a new-home snagging list. While the builder’s snagging or warranty period runs, report it to them first, and if it isn’t put right, get in touch with us. If you have new-build shower sealant that has already split and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging, we can help, whatever the surface.

For a small place like Forest Corner, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Aftercare tips

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
  • Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
  • Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
  • Open a window or run the fan after bathing

Keep photos of the joints and any snagging correspondence with your builder. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.

If a shower tray or bath seal splits in the first year, look for movement. Getting it resealed properly, and any movement checked, stops it recurring.

What we are called out for in Forest Corner

New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, which takes a year or two to dry out. Drying timber shrinks and pulls joints apart and the sealant has to cope with the movement.

People normally contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
  • Sealant work across a run of new homes
  • Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
  • Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging

Whether the job is in Forest Corner itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

Before booking anyone

  • What insurance they hold
  • How long the guarantee is
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • Whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

Why it’s worth doing now in Forest Corner

Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Dealing with it early keeps the damage away from ceilings, floors and finishes. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Forest Corner, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

Why choose Mr Mastic in Forest Corner

  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
  • Fully insured
  • 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews
  • White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows

How we quote for new build mastic

Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:

  • The size of the job
  • Whether the work is at height
  • How many areas need sealing
  • Any mould that needs treating

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.

Helping us quote

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

  • The rough size of the job
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs

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

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

Forest Corner questions

Will you come out to Forest Corner?

Yes, Forest Corner is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

What guarantee comes with new build mastic in Forest Corner?

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

Can I send you my snagging list?

Yes. Send the list and a few photos of the sealant items. We will flag anything that needs another trade.

Can landlords and businesses book you?

Yes, often. Several properties can be quoted together.

Should I wait before resealing?

Any seal that’s leaking should be redone straight away. For small cosmetic gaps, waiting until the house has settled can save doing them twice.

Should I try DIY first?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

Will there be a smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

When it is not the sealant

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

  • Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
  • A tray or bath that is not properly supported, until it’s fixed
  • Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.

What happens on the day

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots for a typical job. For a village or hamlet like Forest Corner, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
  2. The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
  3. Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
  4. New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
  5. We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Tell us about any water getting in
