New build mastic in North Looe

New build mastic for homes and businesses in North Looe

A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber dries and shrinks, and baths and trays settle, and sealant applied in a hurry at handover can split. If you’re dealing with sealant that never bonded to the surface and internal frame sealant that has split, we can help.

Around North Looe, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

The process

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. For a village or hamlet like North Looe, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
  2. We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
  3. Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
  4. New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
  5. We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Move anything stored near the joints

Advice

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

New build mastic in North Looe: local notes

Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

Different surfaces, different methods

Show homes

We can refresh show-home sealant that has discoloured or been knocked. The old bead comes out and a clean new one goes in.

Kitchens

Worktop, upstand and sink joints in new kitchens often get a hurried bead. We take it out and reseal neatly, colour-matched where it shows.

Why it’s worth doing now in North Looe

Resealing everything on a snagging list in one visit is generally simpler than chasing joints one at a time. You get one visit and one clear quote for the lot. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like North Looe, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Why North Looe clients choose us

  • Over 20 years’ experience
  • A choice of colours where the product allows

Do you need new build mastic in North Looe?

A new house holds a lot of water from the build, which takes a year or two to dry out. Drying timber shrinks and pulls joints apart, and sealant that cannot keep up splits.

Look out for these signs:

  • Shower seals failing in the first year or two
  • Sealant work across a run of new homes
  • Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
  • Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces

For new homes near Epsom Downs station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

Before you book anyone

  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not

10 questions to ask before you book

How to look after the new joints

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:

  • Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
  • Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
  • Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
  • Open a window or run the fan after bathing

Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it, which can damage the surface.

Report failed sealant to the builder while you’re in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you.
