New build mastic for Mapesbury homes and businesses

How the visit works

We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating. The job generally takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Mapesbury. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.

  1. We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
  2. The failed sealant is removed completely.
  3. Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
  4. Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
  5. Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any tricky access
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

About our new build mastic in Mapesbury

A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water reaches anything behind it. We work on skirting & floors, bathrooms & en suites and show homes, and common reasons people get in touch are kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall and sealant work across a run of new homes.

New flats are going up across London, many of them in larger developments. In a new development, snags are often reported through the developer or the managing agent, and failed shower seals, open skirting joints and gaps at thresholds are typical.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Different surfaces, different methods

Skirting and floors

Gaps under skirting are one of the most common new-build snags. A flexible sealant closes it without cracking like caulk.

Plot handovers

Taking time over preparation reduces return visits. We clean out building dust before sealing.

Should I try it myself first?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

When something else is needed

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It won’t solve:

  • Broken tiles or a split tray
  • A tray or bath that isn’t properly supported, until it’s fixed
  • Disputes or warranty claims with your builder

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before you book.

Your questions about new build mastic in Mapesbury

Is Mapesbury in your area for new build mastic?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Mapesbury is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.

Is parking an issue for new build mastic in Mapesbury?

In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot, so mention what’s available when you book.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Should I go to my builder first?

Report it to the builder first while you are covered. If it is not resolved, we can reseal it properly.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. As well as homeowners, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels in Mapesbury.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Mapesbury, along with the rest of our area.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

What we’re called out for in Mapesbury

Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Both fail early.

People usually contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
  • Sealant that never bonded to the surface
  • Skirting joints opening in the first winter
  • Internal frame sealant that has split

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • How long the guarantee is
  • How the colour is chosen
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing

Our hiring checklist

What affects the cost of new build mastic

The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • Whether the work is at height
  • The product the joint needs
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The number and length of the joints

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Helping us quote

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will quote.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.

New homes and floors in Mapesbury

Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast. Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snagging may go through the developer or managing agent.
