New build mastic in Great Kingshill

For landlords and businesses

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Great Kingshill and across Buckinghamshire. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured.

New build mastic in Great Kingshill, done properly

We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders, and snagging reseals for new-home owners. Both get the same care over preparation. Common call-outs are for plot mastic for developers ahead of handover and gaps between new skirting and floors, on kitchens, windows & doors and bathrooms & en suites.

Around Great Kingshill, 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 anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What the job involves on each surface

Show homes

In a show home, the sealant is on display. Every bead is neat and coloured to suit the room.

Bathrooms and en suites

New-build bathrooms and en suites are where sealant fails most often. The old sealant comes out and anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in after cleaning and priming.

Common problems we fix in Great Kingshill

If plaster or screed was still damp when it was sealed, the bond suffers. On a busy site, joints aren’t always given time to dry first.

Common reasons people contact us are:

  • Internal frame sealant that has split
  • Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
  • Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
  • New-build shower sealant that has already split

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

Our hiring checklist

When something else is needed

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
  • Plumbing faults behind the sealant
  • A tray or bath that is not properly supported, until it’s fixed

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

What we seal

  • Skirting & floors
  • Plot handovers
  • Kitchens
  • Show homes
  • Bathrooms & en suites
  • Windows & doors

Why act early in Great Kingshill

Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. Around Great Kingshill, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Why us?

  • Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
  • Over 20 years’ experience
  • Neat joints and a tidy finish
  • An ARBOMaster approved applicator

How to look after the new joints

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Use the extractor fan every time you shower
  • Follow the cure time we give you
  • Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
  • Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone

Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray in the first few weeks. Report any movement in a bath or tray.

Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Early resealing keeps the job small and protects the rest of the house.

FAQs for Great Kingshill

Do you work for landlords with property near Great Missenden station?

Are you fully insured?

Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?

No. The old sealant is cut out fully, the joint cleaned and primed where needed, and a new bead applied.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Yes. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months, wherever you are.

Do I need to be at home?

It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access.

Should I go to my builder first?

Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. If that does not work out, we are happy to quote.
