Trusted new build mastic in Hoyle

For landlords and businesses

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes 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.

How we handle new build mastic in Hoyle

A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber dries and shrinks, and baths and trays settle, so sealant that was laid quickly before handover often cracks. Common call-outs are for plot mastic for developers ahead of handover and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks, on windows & doors, bathrooms & en suites and skirting & floors.

Work in a small place like Hoyle just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

Every job comes with a one-year guarantee.

What happens if it’s left?

Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Dealing with it early keeps the damage away from ceilings, floors and finishes. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Hoyle, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear price before any work starts.

Quotes for new build mastic in Hoyle

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • The product the joint needs
  • The size of the job
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Any mould that needs treating

The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

What to tell us 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
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

If you’re in Hoyle and need new build mastic, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. Tell us what the problem is and where, and you’ll get a clear quote before work begins.

What happens on the day

On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work generally takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. For a village or hamlet like Hoyle, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
  2. The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
  3. Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
  4. A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
  5. We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Keeping the joints in good condition

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

  • Wipe joints with warm soapy water
  • Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
  • Follow the cure time we give you
  • Don’t wait for the house to settle if water is getting through

Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Most silicones need around a day to cure enough for use.

Early snagging is easier snagging. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak.

FAQs for Hoyle

Is Hoyle in your area for new build mastic?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Hoyle is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.

Do you cover smaller places like Hoyle?

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.

When is the best time to reseal in a new build?

If the seal has failed and water is getting in, do it now. Hairline cosmetic gaps can wait until the house has settled.

When is the sealant fully cured?

Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We will give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.

My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?

If you are still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, report it to them first. If it isn’t sorted, or keeps failing, get in touch with us.

Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?

No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it soon lifts and traps water. The old sealant always comes out first.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.

Surface by surface

Windows and doors

Internal joints between frames and plaster often crack as a new house dries. We remove cracked sealant and apply a flexible one in a matching colour.

Plot handovers

Send us the schedule and any sealant specification and we will quote. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, frames and floors to the agreed spec.

Common problems we fix in Hoyle

A new house holds a lot of water from the build, and it dries out over the first couple of years. As it does, timber shrinks and joints open, and sealant that can’t keep up splits.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
  • Skirting joints opening in the first winter
  • Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
  • Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • What guarantee comes with the work

  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
