New build mastic in Frilford Heath

How we handle new build mastic in Frilford Heath

Snagging sealant properly means taking the failed bead out completely. Fresh silicone cannot bond to the old layer, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. We work on plot handovers, kitchens and show homes, and common reasons people get in touch are frame joints opening as the plaster dries and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging.

Somewhere as small as Frilford Heath, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Questions from Frilford Heath

Do you work for landlords with property near Radley station?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Can you do new build mastic in Frilford Heath?

Yes, Frilford Heath is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.

Do you take on second-fix sealing for builders?

Yes. We take on second-fix sealant work across new plots. Good preparation keeps snagging to a minimum.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.

Will you just run a new bead over the existing one?

No. We always remove the existing bead, then clean and prime the joint, and a new bead applied.

How long does the job take?

It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours in a single home. We will tell you when we quote.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

What happens if it’s left?

A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it cannot bond to what’s underneath. Taking it all out and starting again is the only way to get a lasting seal. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Frilford Heath, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

How the visit works

We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on. The job generally takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere as small as Frilford Heath, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
  2. The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
  3. We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
  4. New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
  5. Each area is checked and left with its cure time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Should I try it myself first?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Common problems we fix in Frilford Heath

Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: decorators’ caulk in a wet area, or a stiff sealant where there’s movement. Neither lasts long.

The problems people generally mention when they call are:

  • Gaps between new skirting and floors
  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles
  • Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
  • Messy sealant that spoils new finishes

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Are they insured?
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • How long to leave it before use
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
