New build mastic in Haslemere

New build mastic in Haslemere

Some owners wait for the first year’s movement before having joints redone. For small cosmetic gaps, that is reasonable, but a seal that’s letting water through needs doing now. If you’re dealing with new-build shower sealant that has already split and second-fix sealing on new plots, we can help, whatever the surface.

Where new homes go up in smaller places like Haslemere, it’s often a small development or a single plot. The sealant around baths, showers, frames and skirtings needs to be right from the start.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey.

Signs you need new build mastic in Haslemere

A new house holds a lot of water from the build, and it dries out over the first couple of years. Drying timber shrinks and pulls joints apart, and sealant that cannot keep up splits.

The problems people normally mention when they call are:

  • New-build shower sealant that has already split
  • Second-fix sealing on new plots
  • Cracked caulk along new skirting
  • Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles

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

How it works

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. A visit to Haslemere is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
  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. Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Clear the area around the work

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:

  • Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
  • Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
  • Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
  • Open a window or run the fan after bathing

Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents.

If a shower tray or bath seal splits in the first year, look for movement. Have it resealed, and the tray or bath checked, before it gets worse.

What affects the quote in Haslemere

Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • Access and height
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

What we need to know

To make quoting easier, please include:

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • Whether it has been sealed before

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.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
  • Plumbing faults behind the sealant
  • Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Common questions in Haslemere

I let a flat near Haslemere station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Can you do new build mastic in Haslemere?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Haslemere is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?

That depends on the joint. A leaking shower or bath seal should be redone straight away, but cosmetic gaps can wait for movement to slow.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Do you have insurance?

Yes, we’re fully insured.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.

Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?

A new house dries and settles for a year or two, and sealant is often rushed onto dusty, unprimed surfaces. Both lead to early failure.

How much does new build mastic cost in Haslemere?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.

How the job changes by surface

Skirting and floors

Wet-area floor joints need a flexible seal. We seal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.

Bathrooms and en suites

Shower trays in new homes often move slightly in the first year. We reseal once the old bead is fully out and baths are filled before sealing.
