Trusted new build mastic in Holyfield

New build mastic in Holyfield

A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water gets into the floor or walls. We work on bathrooms & en suites, windows & doors and kitchens, and the jobs we see most are smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging and gaps opening as the house dries out and settles.

Somewhere as small as Holyfield, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

When something else is needed

Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
  • Damaged fittings that need replacing
  • Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we seal

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

Why act early in Holyfield

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. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Holyfield, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

How we quote for new build mastic

We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:

  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Access and height
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Asking for a quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Where the job is, and your postcode

We don’t publish a price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Can I do it myself?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

How it works

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. It generally takes a few hours in a single home. In a small place like Holyfield, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
  2. We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
  3. We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
  4. New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
  5. We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

Holyfield: your questions answered

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

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

Do you cover smaller places like Holyfield?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Does someone need to be in?

Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Will it make a mess?

Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

What colour sealant will you use?

That depends on what the joint meets: white or clear in most bathrooms, and a colour to suit worktops, frames and floors elsewhere. We agree the colour before work begins.

Can I send you my snagging list?

Yes. Send it with pictures and we’ll quote for the sealant items. Items that need a plumber, tiler or the builder are flagged.

Should I try DIY first?

You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
  • Use the extractor fan every time you shower
  • Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered
  • Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop

Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray in the first few weeks. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.

A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant and protects the rest of the house.
