About our new build mastic in Little Hoddington

Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. Each joint is cleaned of dust and primed where the product calls for it, so the new bead bonds properly. Typical jobs include shower seals failing in the first year or two and sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces, on windows & doors, plot handovers and bathrooms & en suites.

For a small place like Little Hoddington, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Why it’s worth doing now in Little Hoddington

A tube of sealant from the DIY shop will not fix the cause: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. Older cottages and farmhouses around Little Hoddington can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Common questions in Little Hoddington

Do you cover smaller places like Little Hoddington?

Yes. Little Hoddington is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Can you do new build mastic in Little Hoddington?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Little Hoddington is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

How long does new build mastic take?

As a guide, most jobs take a few hours in a single home. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.

Will you just run a new bead over the existing one?

No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so sealing over the top fails quickly. The old sealant always comes out first.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.

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

Start with the builder if you’re in the snagging or warranty period. Once that is done, or if they won’t put it right, we will cut it out and reseal it.

Do you have insurance?

Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.

Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?

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

What the job involves on each surface

Bathrooms and en suites

Baths, showers, basins and trays in new bathrooms are the most common new-build reseal. The old sealant comes out and anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in after cleaning and priming.

Skirting and floors

New homes often develop a gap between skirting and floor. A flexible sealant closes it without cracking like caulk.

Quotes for new build mastic in Little Hoddington

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • The amount of work
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Whether the work is at height
  • Mould in or behind the old joints

Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

What we need to know

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • What’s wrong with the joints now

Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots for a typical job. Somewhere as small as Little Hoddington, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
  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. We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
  5. We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Honest limits

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
  • Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
