Trusted new build mastic in Harrow

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.

About our new build mastic in Harrow

Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. In both, preparation makes the difference. Typical jobs include new-build shower sealant that has already split and sealant that never bonded to the surface, across skirting & floors, show homes and windows & doors.

Much of London’s new housing is flats 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.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

What we’re called out for in Harrow

A new house holds a lot of water from the build, which takes a year or two to dry out. Drying timber shrinks and pulls joints apart.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
  • Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles
  • Internal frame sealant that has split

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not
  • How the colour is chosen
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?

Our hiring checklist

Why act early in Harrow

Sealant done properly at handover means fewer callbacks. Every return visit for a failed seal takes time. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Dealing with it early is far simpler.

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, so you know where you stand.

Why Harrow clients choose us

  • Domestic, commercial and hotel work
  • Full insurance on every job

  • A choice of colours where the product allows

What affects the quote in Harrow

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • The type of sealant required
  • Working hours on commercial sites

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.

What to tell us for a quote

There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:

  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • The type of property

There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Looking after it afterwards

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Open a window or run the fan after bathing
  • Follow the cure time we give you
  • Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
  • Watch for new gaps as the house dries out

Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It helps if anything else comes up during the warranty period.

The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak.

New homes and floors in Harrow

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snagging may go through the developer or managing agent.

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

The process

Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours in a single home. In Harrow, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.

  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. New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
  5. The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Harrow questions

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Harrow-on-the-Hill station?

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Can parking be tricky for a visit in Harrow?

It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes. Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee.

What sealant do you use?

It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

Can I do it myself?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

Is there any odour?

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

Will you leave a mess?

We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.

Where are you based?

Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.

Can I do it myself?

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
