New build mastic for Knotty Green homes and businesses

What new build mastic looks like in Knotty Green

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

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

How we handle new build mastic in Knotty Green

We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders, and snagging reseals for new-home owners. In both, preparation makes the difference. We work on show homes, kitchens and skirting & floors, and the jobs we see most are cracked sealant around new window and door frames and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list.

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

You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What happens if it’s left?

A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. Around Knotty Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Why Knotty Green customers choose us

  • Old sealant always removed completely
  • Sealant colour chosen to suit
  • A choice of colours where the product allows
  • You choose the colour before work begins

Can I do it myself?

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Knotty Green

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

If you manage several properties in or around Knotty Green, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.

What the job involves on each surface

Plot handovers

Plot mastic is carried out to the developer’s schedule. Joints are prepared properly before sealing to keep callbacks down.

Show homes

We can refresh show-home sealant that has discoloured or been knocked. The old bead comes out and a clean new one goes in.

How we quote for new build mastic

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Access and height

We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

When to call us in Knotty Green

On many sites, sealant goes on in the final rush before handover. Dusty, unprimed joints are common, so the bead never bonds properly.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Gaps between new skirting and floors
  • Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
  • Sealant that never bonded to the surface
  • Shower seals failing in the first year or two

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

Before booking anyone

  • Is the old sealant removed completely?

Questions from Knotty Green

Is Knotty Green in your area for new build mastic?

Yes, Knotty Green is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.

Do you work for landlords with property near Beaconsfield station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.

Do the sealants smell?

It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.

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

Any seal that is leaking should be redone right away. For small cosmetic gaps, waiting until the house has settled can save doing them twice.

Will it make a mess?

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

How much does new build mastic cost in Knotty Green?

We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.

What do you put in the joint?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll explain our choice.

What we do, step by step

There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots.

Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
  2. Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out, with no layer left behind.
  3. We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
  4. We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
  5. We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
