New build mastic near North End

What we do, step by step

We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours in a single home. In North End, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.

  1. We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
  3. We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
  4. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
  5. The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

How we handle new build mastic in North End

A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. When the finish is smeared, patchy or already cracking, it’s worth putting right early, before water reaches anything behind it. If you are dealing with beads laid onto grit and dust from the build and new-build shower sealant that has already split, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

From brand-new flats to converted terraces with new flooring, London has every kind of floor. Every joint between floor, skirting and threshold has to cope with some movement.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Surface by surface

Skirting and floors

Floors and skirting move as the house dries and the heating runs. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it in a colour to suit.

Bathrooms and en suites

Baths, showers, basins and trays in new bathrooms are the most common new-build reseal. The old sealant comes out and anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in after cleaning and priming.

Quotes for new build mastic in North End

For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The number and length of the joints

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What to tell us for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • The rough size of the job
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Whether it has been sealed before

Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Describe what needs sealing and we will explain what’s involved and give you a clear quote.

New homes and floors in North End

Many of London’s new homes are flats in bigger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent. 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.

If you’ve bought a new home near Hampstead Heath station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two. North End is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Why it’s worth doing now in North End

A tube of sealant from the DIY shop will not fix the cause: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Dealing with it early is far simpler for homes in North End.

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

Questions from North End

Is parking a problem for a job in North End?

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.

Do you cover North End for new build mastic?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and North End is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Will it make a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.

Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?

No. Over-sealing traps mould and water and soon fails. We remove every bit of the old bead before resealing.

How much does new build mastic cost in North End?

Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.

When something else is needed

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:

  • Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
  • Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
  • Cracking that points to a structural problem

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

How to look after the new joints

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Wipe joints with warm soapy water
  • Record problems with dated photos
  • Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
  • Put sealant faults on your snagging list early

Watch the joints as the house settles. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry, and they’re simple to reseal once movement has slowed.

Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Dealing with it before it goes black keeps the job straightforward.
