New build mastic in Mount Pleasant
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover. Common call-outs are for new-build shower sealant that has already split and sealant that never bonded to the surface, on bathrooms & en suites, windows & doors and plot handovers.
Somewhere as small as Mount Pleasant, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
There are normally two causes: the house moving as it dries, and sealant that never bonded properly. Cutting it out and resealing properly fixes both.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Record problems with dated pictures
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
Ventilation matters in a new home, which is still drying out. Run the fan or open a window after bathing to help keep mould away.
Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant and the new finishes intact.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Plot handovers
- Show homes

- Kitchens
Why deal with it now?
Small cosmetic gaps can wait for the house to settle, but a leaking seal can’t. If you are unsure which you have, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with photos and we’ll give you a straight answer. Around Mount Pleasant, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
