About our new build mastic in North Heath

Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the sealant actually sticks rather than sitting on a layer of grit. Typical jobs include smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging and sealant work across a run of new homes, across skirting & floors, kitchens and bathrooms & en suites.

Work in a small place like North Heath just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Quotes for new build mastic in North Heath

You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:

  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • The type of sealant required
  • How many areas need sealing
  • Whether the work is at height

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

What we need to know

You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:

  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Where the job is, and your postcode

We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job.

Can I do it myself?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

What the job involves on each surface

Skirting and floors

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

Windows and doors

The gap between a new frame and its plaster reveal often opens up. We cut out the cracked bead and reseal with a flexible sealant that suits the frame.

Signs you need new build mastic in North Heath

Once people move in, baths and trays take weight and bed down. If a bath wasn’t filled when it was sealed, the bead is stretched the first time it’s used.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
  • Internal frame sealant that has split
  • Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
  • Cracked caulk along new skirting

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

Before you book anyone

  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • Whether VAT is included
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • How long to leave it before use

Choosing a sealant specialist

What happens on the day

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like North Heath needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
  2. Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out, with no layer left behind.
  3. Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
  4. We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
  5. Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice

Why deal with it now?

DIY kits do not solve the main problems with new-build sealant: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like North Heath, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Why book with us
