New build mastic in Longford, done properly
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. Common call-outs are for internal frame sealant that has split and gaps between new skirting and floors, on bathrooms & en suites, windows & doors and show homes.
For a small place like Longford, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Signs you need new build mastic in Longford
Fresh sealant can be knocked or cut by trades finishing off. A bead disturbed before it has cured may never seal properly and it shows once the home is in use.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
In and around Longford, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
Keep an eye on the joints over the first couple of years. Small gaps can appear as the house dries and can be resealed later.
If a shower tray or bath seal splits in the first year, look for movement. Getting it resealed properly, and any movement checked, stops it recurring.
How it works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. Expect the work to take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Somewhere like Longford needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
- The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

What the job involves on each surface
Plot handovers
Developers can send the plot schedule and specification for a quote. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, frames and floors.
Windows and doors
Draughts around new frames are often a sealant gap. We check and reseal the frame edges.
Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
- Broken tiles or a split tray
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
