How we handle new build mastic in Holmbury St Mary

In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water gets into the floor or walls. We are often asked to deal with shower seals failing in the first year or two and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks, across kitchens, show homes and windows & doors.

For a small place like Holmbury St Mary, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Looking after it afterwards

How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered
  • Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away
  • Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
  • Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself

Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents, which can damage the surface.

Do not let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. Once it ends, the repair may be down to you so report it promptly.

What happens on the day

We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours in a single home. Somewhere as small as Holmbury St Mary, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. Each joint is checked for movement before we start.
  2. We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
  3. Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
  4. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
  5. The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Quotes for new build mastic in Holmbury St Mary

The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:

Asking for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:

  • The rough size of the job
  • The address or postcode of the job

Honest limits

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:

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

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

  • Bathrooms & en suites

DIY sealant or a professional job?

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

How the job changes by surface

Show homes

Show homes need sealant that looks right from day one. Every bead is neat and coloured to suit the room.

Skirting and floors

Gaps under skirting are one of the most common new-build snags. We seal it with a flexible sealant that copes with the movement.
