New build mastic for homes and businesses in Mockbeggar
We never seal over a failed new-build bead. Fresh silicone can’t bond to the old layer, so the joint is cut out, cleaned, dried and resealed. Typical jobs include smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging and sealant that never bonded to the surface, across skirting & floors, kitchens and plot handovers.
For a small place like Mockbeggar, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Mockbeggar as everywhere else we work.

How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
- Record problems with dated photos
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered
Do not stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray in the first few weeks. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.
Don’t let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. After that, putting it right may fall to you so report it promptly.

What else we do in Mockbeggar
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchens
Beside the sink, the joint takes water every day. We use a sealant suited to kitchens.
Plot handovers
We work through plots to your schedule, sealing each room ready for handover. Each joint is cleaned and primed where needed to keep callbacks down.
