- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
How we handle new build mastic in Mackney
We never seal over a failed new-build bead. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so the joint is cut out, cleaned, dried and resealed. Common call-outs are for internal frame sealant that has split and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list, across plot handovers, show homes and kitchens.
Older homes in small places like Mackney often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Leave it or put it right?
For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Every return visit for a failed seal takes time, and they’re avoidable with good preparation. Around Mackney, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- A tray or bath that isn’t properly supported, until it’s fixed
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
- Damaged fittings that need replacing

When to call us in Mackney
The first winter with the heating on dries a new home quickly. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
For new homes near Cholsey station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
What your quote should include
- Which colour the sealant will be
- Is VAT in the price?
- Are they insured?
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
