When something else is needed

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
  • Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
  • Plumbing faults behind the sealant

If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we seal

  • Skirting & floors
  • Bathrooms & en suites
  • Plot handovers
  • Windows & doors

New build mastic in Furzedown

A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber shrinks, plaster dries and baths and trays bed down, and sealant applied in a hurry at handover can split. If you are dealing with frame joints opening as the plaster dries and plot mastic for developers ahead of handover, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

New flats are going up across London, many of them in larger developments. Snagging there often goes through the developer or managing agent, and failed shower seals, open skirting joints and gaps at thresholds are typical.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Quotes for new build mastic in Furzedown

You’ll get a clear quote before we start. It’s based on:

  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • The number and length of the joints
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • How easy the joints are to reach

The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Asking for a quote

To make quoting easier, let us know:

  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • The type of property
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • The address or postcode of the job

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.

How it works

All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. In Furzedown, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.

  1. We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
  2. Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out down to clean surfaces.
  3. Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
  4. We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
  5. We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.

How to prepare

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Advice

Different surfaces, different methods

Windows and doors

The gap between a new frame and its plaster reveal often opens up. We remove cracked sealant and apply a flexible one that suits the frame.

Show homes

Tired or marked sealant in a show home can be renewed. We cut it out and reseal neatly.

Your questions about new build mastic in Furzedown

Do you cover Furzedown for new build mastic?

Yes, Furzedown is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.

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

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Do you have insurance?

Yes, we are fully insured for every job we do.

Will it make a mess?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.

Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?

We use white, clear or a colour to suit the finishes. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything is not right with the work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Do you work through snagging lists?

Yes. Send us the sealant items on the list, with pictures if you can and we will give you a quote. We will tell you if anything on it isn’t a sealant job.

Do the sealants smell?

Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

Signs you need new build mastic in Furzedown

Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: decorators’ caulk in a wet area, or a stiff sealant where there’s movement. Both fail early.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Cracked caulk along new skirting
  • Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles
  • Internal frame sealant that has split

If you’ve bought a new home near Tooting station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

What your quote should include

  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • Are they insured?
  • Whether VAT is included
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first

Choosing a sealant specialist

Keeping the joints in good condition

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
  • Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
  • Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
  • Follow the cure time we give you

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

Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Dealing with it before it goes black keeps the job straightforward.

What new build mastic looks like in Furzedown

Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Many of London’s new homes are flats in bigger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent.

Furzedown is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Why act early in Furzedown

For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot, and they’re avoidable with good preparation. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.
